My fave crime drama trope is "Wait, stop the video there! Zoom in. Now, enhance it....!" and somehow the super grainy, blown-out, digitally-zoomed CCTV footage gets clearer.
ENHANCE, ENHANCE, ENHANCE
Yes, in my household we call it "The Pixel Trick" where they take a grainy, blurry image of a reflection on someone's patent leather shoes and (magically) ENHANCE it and you see a crystal clear photo of the killer!! Perhaps now they can do a lot more with enhancement but in the early days (early 2000s) it was a laugh. Maybe in the basement at NORAD they have some software that can enhance to the point of clarity but frankly, once a pixel is blown out, it's gone. The computer can only *guess* what was there.
@@marycarla6245 One time, I think one of the CSI shows (which I actually do not watch because I think solving a case in just one episode is unrealistic, I usually fell right into an episode when switching on the TV) took this to the extreme and while zooming in they saw a reflection of "the guy who dun it" in the ballhead of the part of a car where you attach a trailer to.
As if that was not enough (after zooming in an incredible amount) they "simply" overlayed a 3D mask of the ball head to be able to correct for the distortion and get a clear face, that they threw at the computer and hey-ho, after like 10 seconds they had a match :P.
Pointing out that trope is a trope unto itself
@@marycarla6245 the technology to enhance as shown in tv will probably not happen irl. Even at 8k when you zoom in things will get more blurry as pixels can only show so much information and "blowing up" will take the little information shown by the original pixels and make it larger inevitably making it blurrier and anything shown will be less distinct.
"Show some respect for the dead!"
*Officer casually limbos under tape in background*
Next video: Professional actors examine real life moments and comment on lack of entertainment, mystery, suspense, action, long stares, and meaningful pauses between sentences.
Lol whyyy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lmbo!!
Yes, because the dead care so much.
in case you guys missed it, Loaded Weapon is a blatant parody comedy movie
I love this guy. I hope he examines my crime scene when I'm murdered.
Liz Leigh omfg lmao what
I wrote a similar thing on their new video. Our minds might be too dark, lol.
Liz Leigh whoa wHat
Write it in your will. Lol
Love how it wasn’t “if” I get murdered, but “when”
Moral of the Story: Just because you watch NCIS, Bones, Criminal Minds and Dexter DOESN'T mean you can get away with murder lol
You’d be surprised how many murder cases go cold my man.
As long as you murder someone you dont know at all and cover your tracks you’re good. Most people get caught by 1. DNA
2. Witnesses
3. Getting caught in a lie
What I'd you watch
How to Get Away with Murder?
@@Alkatraz581 You're not too bright, are you? How to actually get away with murder: 1) Pick a relatively poor area with corrupt cops, an incompetent district attorney, & no real forensics; 2) Kill someone who's not very important; 3) Dump the body in water or dense forest. Most people get caught because they have a connection to the victim and like you, they're stupid.
@@ninedaysjane2466 hey there friend, although helpful don't you think you were being rather mean. Whatever aggressiveness you've shown to this random stranger give literally no benefit to you except for brief boost of confidence over something that may not be common knowledge.
Ninedaysjane LMAO THIS IS EXACTLY what i just said you dip.
Re read my comment then come back and talk to me got it?
I’m mad they didn’t look at Bones, since that was actually co-produced by a forensic anthropologist.
YEEEES! I came here to just say that! Bones should've definitely been on this list!!
I agree!
SAME !
I CAME HERE TO SAY THAT TOO
They were close to it. They got SCSI. What a shame, so close.
next: real demon reacts to lucifer
I haven't heard this one before lmao
Sign me up to see that XD
Bah the bone structure is all wrong
They’d probably die of boredom.
LMAOOO.
One of my former professors wrote his thesis on the "CSI Effect" and how it affects the detective's job. Basically, shows like CSI make jurors think that cops messed up because they didn't do what they do in the show.
That would be a very interesting thesis to read ✨
It even comes up in civil cases. Jurors want forensic evidence in cases where it doesn’t even make sense.
Oh wow, never thought how it could affect people that way
@@ridesq what can you give an instance where it wouldn’t make sense? I’m curious.
CSI was a stupid show
"It's like doing brain surgery for a headache"
Dr. House has left the chat
"Owie my head"
*fires up a drill*
I really miss House
Gosh I should rewatch the show
The cops doing the limbo in the back just made me lose it 😂😂
😂😂😂😂 i was rollin
They didn't show it here but a cop was also shampooing his hair at the scene
That day uncle jimboo lost it watching cops doing limbo
Please do more of the Technique Critique series, I love it. And bring back the linguistics expert and the medical expert, they were both awesome. MORE!
I would love a courtroom drama or movie Technique Critique by a well-decorated bar association member. Let's see which show has done their research and homework - first movies/shows that come to mind are Bull., JAG, HTGAWM, A Few Good Men, For The People, Legally Blonde, and Legal Eagle.
Linguistics guy was fascinating
I really liked the linguistic guy.
YESS I LOVE THE LINGUISTIC GUY
**I agree 100%! MORE Please!**
In the defense of criminal minds, they are not crime scene investigators but profilers.
Korvus also that they were right about the one unsub
They're not much like real profilers, either.
Yeah right criminal minds is great
@@mirinae6579 but it's one of the must accurate shows, because a ex profiler, one of the first profilers that exist on the FBI is a co-writter of the show
Juli V.F yeah but they over blow everything to make it entertaining, it doesn’t depict what the actual fbi is like
"There is no way we can prove the 'why' with science." Truer words were never spoken.
imacg4 the why is when psychology comes in (social “science”)
Have you heard of physics, pal?
Sebastian Nokkentved how does physics determine motive
Warren Peace human behavior can’t be determined by physics, I admit that - physics is probably more of a how in this scenario.
@@sebastiannokkentved7807 Um psychology is the study of the mind physics is a science course you take. I'm confused did you mean to say physics or did you mean psychology?
My mom is an orchestra teacher, so she always critiques depictions of musicians on TV/in movies. That’s another one you could do.
pokepress hahamy mom is a flight attendant and she is the same way in critiquing airline procedures and how certain things could never happen. she really ruined the movie nonstop for us
My parents are military veterans so they watch shows and critique their military portray
Well, MY mom is a....shit. I don't have a mom.
Special mention to "coco" it felt great when miguel played the guitar in the right notes
As a professional cook I make the same case for the portrayal of chefs on tv/movies hahaha
They took the time to show family guy but not Bones???
Tyler Muller because it’s perfect and they know it
Uh I know. As a forensic anthropologist I hate that show. I cringe all the time when someone says, "oh! You're like Bones!" Smh
@@simplyhadi524 exactly
Well, Kathy Reichs is a crime writer, forensic anthropologist and academic - she created those characters and worked as producer on the show to keep the science honest - since the characters had a few changes (between Book x Tv).
harleybynature that must be annoying I can’t imagine being told that all the time lol
I feel like in 90% of the cases, the entertainment factor wouldn't be diminished just because they got the technical aspects right.
True. But the more you know, the less you enjoy, I think. It goes for my dad about medical stuff, my brother about psychology, my mom about law and business, me with the writing industry and script errors.
But the cost goes up for things 90% of the viewers don't even get.
Amara Jordan it’s quite the opposite actually. The more knowledge a film or show shares with the audience, the more illusion of realism. People love the idea of a fictional story becoming reality.
Amara Jordan you’re just flexing about your family 😂😂😂
Yeah, but i am sick of stuff about hair. Once you know it's true, it automatically becomes sucky to watch.
This guy is so interesting. I could listen to him talk about crime scenes for a seriously extended period of time. Lol.
If only the Wired editor would shut up in between.
you should see the doctor they brought
Podcast, Podcast, Podcast!
Please do court scenes with real lawyers
Don Cresswell There's a guy called "Legal Eagle" that's done that.
I NEED THIS
Your wish is granted!

daer devvyl thanks! I checked it out! Exactly what i want
There would be so much to say! Almost every movie or tv series is so theatrical, it's ridiculous!
Please bring back the medical expert and linguistics expert. They were both incredible and there's always a ton of subject matter for them to cover. More of these, please.
Kaedenn check out Doctor Mike's channel, not sure if he's the Dr that was on this channel but he has his own channel where he reacts to medical tv shows!
Agreed!
If you like a medical experts opinion on popular medical TV shows, check out Dr Hope's Sick Notes, he's incredible!
nicholas petros
It always drives me nuts when I see shows where the CSIs don't wear the full outfit and they're walking around with their street shoes, loose hair, and touching everything. I'm not even a CS investigator and I know that. On the flip side, everyone's hair looks GREAT!!
Mary Carla CSI Miami is my absolute favorite when it comes to that. All the women walking around in high heels, dressed like lawyers and makeup and hair always perfect
And everyone gets a nice close up shot, where only there face is seen. That Eva LaRue is 🔥🔥🔥
I worked in a kitchen and it was more strict than that! 😂
@@mojneme and always in white or light colors! I was always worried they'd get blood on their clothes.
On the flip side I named my dog Calleigh.
please have real detectives react to brooklyn 99
When a comedy gets it way more accurate than a serious movie
That one cop doing the limbo got me XD
Laena Everwood I can't believe he didnt comment on that
This man's critique is easily one of my favorite of any I've heard. He uses context, facts, and fully explains his understanding of both. Great series and great watch
The cop doing the limbo under the crime scene tape at 4:39 LOL
I love this guys he’s so dedicated you can see this is his passion
YES! And I could literally see his frustration when he saw the PEN couple times. And how he was happy when the show got it right.
Everyone's mad he didn't do Bones and I'm mad he didn't do Psych. Shawn and Gus were always messing with crime scenes. 😩🤣
Yessss that would of been great😭😭💀
They should do the episode where gus' boss dies and he completely fucks up the crime scene lol
Just watched a marathon of Psych, I forgot how badly they messed up crime scenes. LOL. Great comedy. They should do one of these episodes and solely focus on TV shows instead of movies.
LMAO I LOVE Psych! Would’ve loved to have this guy roast the show 😂
SAME!!!
I was hoping for a segment for Sherlock.
These videos are a lot of fun.
However excellent a show Sherlock is it's completely riddled with assumptions and jumping to conclusions that are not 100% guaranteed and completely unscientific.
Sherlock does most of his stuff with "superpowers" (although the flash did aswell)
Kaizo Audio and I was hoping Sherlock would have actual investigations rather than solving everything off screen
Sherlock isn't superhuman, he's just very very smart. But all the deduction in the world counts for nothing when you have more than one possibility. At best it's an educated guess but not something any professional should resort to.
I wanted Hannibal
I'd love to see more analysis of the show "Dexter". The forensics portrayed seems to be so detailed and specific. Fascinating !
"somebody's gotta turn a light on" killed me.
i would love to sit down with this guy and watch every season of Bones with his commentary
groundchele I waited the whole Video for bones, but i got disappointed
It’s wrong mostly to be honest.
I was waiting to see Bones, too!
AHHH ME TOO!
groundchele YES
I think the editor is on crack. It keeps zooming him in and out every 2 seconds and interjecting some clip between jump cuts.
Fizizy It’s gotten a lot worse. I feel like in older videos in this series, they would only play a clip to “reply” to the expert’s critique once they were about to move on to the next example.
Literally every sentence
WIRED's equivalent of shakycam.
It drives me crazy !
can't unsee
As a forensic science student, I’m loving this 😍
i’m a forensic science student
@@kerodelkigh how’s it going? And where in the world are you studying? I’m in South Africa 😊
confused as to why NBC’s hannibal didn’t make it to this video
As a Hannibal fan my guess is that it's a bit too bonkers, but I might be wrong lol
i’m guessing it’s because will is a profiler, but they showed criminal minds so.....who knows
i literally clicked on this video hoping hannibal wouldve made it here... apparently not
I dont even realize that was 20 minutes, didnt feel bored at all, good editing, nice, smart and articulate source. Thank you Wired
I didn’t even notice it was 20 min until I read your comment
Yeah. I was skeptical when I saw that it was 20 minutes. In the end I was surprised it was over already.
This was super interesting. You manage to pick very articulate people for these who do a great job. Well done to everyone.
special mention 4:55
You should add Bones and Lucifer next time!!
yazzmt YESSS I WOULD LOVE THEM TO DO LUCIFER.. except he’s be critiquing Lucifer the whole time🤣
Oh yas bitvh
I somehow thought that lucifer was in this video😅😂
EXCACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT. MY TWO FAV SHOWS!
“It is a capital mistake to theorize before one has data! Insensibly, one begins to twist facts to suit theories instead of theories to suit facts!” That dialog between Woody and Matthew is an excellent variant on this classic Holmes tenet.
Wish the masses kept this in mind every day.
A bit unorthodox but I'd be real interested in them bringing in someone really knowledgeable about business and having them critique movies and shows that center around business and management. IE The Office, Wolf of Wall Street, etc..
Bring in Jordan belfort to critique The wolf of wall street
That's actually a really good idea! Although, The Office is not an attempted accurate portrayal of a realistic business setting. It's an exaggerated comedy and it probably wouldn't be something a professional would critique since it's meant to be satire. But still, I agree it'd be cool to see a professional analyze things like Mad Men, Wall Street or Boiler Room. There's definitely enough material to make one of these with a business theme.
As a ceo this would be nice
It would have been cool if they did BBC Sherlock
I was waiting for it.
me too 😭😭
That would just be "Stop looking for Zebras!"
heroofcanton101 zebras??
Isn't Sherlock white?
The movie Zodiac was set in the late 1960's and early 1970's - DNA testing wasn't a thing so I don't think they would have been concerned about contaminating the bullet.
This would be my thought.
Might have been more accurate for the time period.
Ah... Criminal Minds. A masterpiece of a series. Not a single actor I didn't absolutely love. Rossi, Garcia, Reid, Aaron... All the cases, mysteries of the mind and human behavior. What a fantastic series.
I love this series. Entertaining and educational!
Oh hi Dana
I'm lowkey offended Bones wasn't on this list.
Yep
I was hoping bones would be featured, now I’m disappointed
I am highkey disappointed
@@betsyh3544 im superkey disappointed
I'm as disappointed as I was with the series ending.
I studied Criminology for three years. I understand what he says. My professor would get upset if we referred to movies when clarifying doubts😂😂but we did it just the same...to irritate him...😀
Bone Collector..loved that movie. I actually studied Criminology because of that movie. I forgot this scene but I felt the evidence collection at the beginning of the movie was awesome...
Can We Get Bones, Flashpoint, Murdoch Mysteries, Psych and Monk Next Time🙏🏾
👏👏👏Murdoch!
Monk!!!
Yes please
@@mrs.g.35 I was hoping for Monk and Sherlock
Hmm, you like done of the same things I like, imma have to check out flashpoint.
Cool, didn't know Macklemore was a forensics expert.
Holy F*CK!
Who?
He actually looks like John Dillinger, the 1930s bank robber.
Hah!
No, thats his uncle!
Soldiers examining military movies next!
MrCursorFTW as cool as that would be.. too be honest i think it would be semi traumatic for some with ptsd?? my brother in law just got out of the marines and had been deployed 5 times.. and when we decided to watch Lone Survivor (even though they were Navy Seals) ( and he never watched soldier/combat movies because of ptsd) it was almost too much for him to bare😳 he had to leave a little more than halfway into the movie and go outside.. I’ve never ever seen my brother in law cry, tear up, nothing.. and when I went outside he was online looking up his “brothers” he had lost in one of the attacks they had at the camp/base in Afghanistan.. he had tears streaming down his face😢 and the survivors guilt he displayed and opened up about that night was so heartbreaking😕 obviously his reaction isn’t everyone’s.. but seeing him like that makes me think about how other soldiers see these movies and what kind of memories it brings them back to.. but we never watched another movie like that with him..
The Wolverine read the comment above
Yes!!!
@@hannahleclaire1629 Okay, not every veteran has PTSD. Some have PTSD but absolutely love war films. Your brother in law is not a representation of every marine, soldier, combat vet, or military expert.
Karsten Lane did I say that?? no.. if you read what I said.. I said obviously his reaction isn’t everyone’s.. that HE had a problem because of his severe ptsd.. I would never ever compare my brother in law to any other soldier! That was HIS experience and everyone’s different.. just said I could see how it would be hard for some of those with ptsd.. even though not everyone with ptsd has a problem with these movies.. a lot of them do and I was telling HIS experience👍
Wow didn’t realize everyone in the comments were crime scene experts
Well of course! It's CZcams! Every commenter is a subject matter expert!
Casey Locke wtf is your problem dude
peepee poopoo it's called sarcasm!
Loved it when he said “there's no way we can prove why with science."
"Gallows humor" so that's what it's called. When my dad was a detective he would make jokes all the time when he would talk about a scene. I'd always say how it wasn't nice but my mom told me he was just trying to cope. He saw some pretty bad stuff so I guess now it makes sense.
Police, firefighters, ambulance officers/paramedics, doctors, nurses, forensics ... that "gallows humour" is essential or you'll go insane.
All medical and anyone that deals with death has to have some sort of humor to get by.
Yeah definitely! "Gallows humor" or sometimes you hear it called "black humor." People in fields like that have zero intention of being disrespectful, but they gotta get through their days.
C. Richardson is it similar to dark humor just _darker?_
@@nudeerah no. It's quite morbid for a dark joke
Your editor has outdone themselves. That's so tight, and well structured.
Except for the freeze frames with the forensic expert. In my opinion, it would have looked better if they had cut to the TV/movie scene in full screen.
What do you mean, it's horrible
The Porcupine I mean the way the video feed almost talks to and responds to the scientist dude. I just thought it was fantastic
No, it isn't well structured. lol
It has flair, that is what you like but it is not well structured and is edited by a novice.
Way too many jump cuts and morph cuts. It's a 20 min video already. I wouldn't mind it being 23 min with pauses and not have him popping all over the place when he's talking.
i wanted to know about hannibal, how they handle crime scenes (more focus on the others who do the autopsies than will graham himself)
I was highkey hoping they’d do a part in Supernatural XD
I love this guy. Idk why. He has a good vibe I think.
The Matadore He's smart - We must both like the Smarties!!
They should make another video with this guy! I like him
Well the editing is pretty snappy making it a more enjoyabke video while also containing an interesting subject. I dont know if anything he presented here ahows him being a genius or smartie. Proper safety guidelines on a job don't require a 140 IQ
bhris breezy Sadly, it seems like a lot of people are kinda bad at their jobs imho.
A lot are also good however.
He seems to know his stuff.
Many real·world investigators seem hapless in my experience.
I believe - subjectively - it makes him a smartie.
Though you do have a valid point too.
They said the same thing about Dexter....
I've always wanted to be a forensic scientist and I've always watch criminal minds, law and order and castle. I want more of these with law enforcement experts
I love criminal minds, my favorite show
yeah,me too! 😊
@Francis A. it's a slippery slope, takes a lot of law enforcement experience to become a forensic anything really.
+Adam not really, the majority of forensic experts are civilians rather than law enforcement. instead, you'd need a bachelor's (in field of interest), a master's (in forensics and/or field of interest), and enter a certification program to meet requirements of being hired (typically right around 400 hours experience in general forensics).
Zena ain’t that cute
Started watching this because I love forensic science. By the end, I was fixated on how well done the editing is for this video.
I thought for sure BBC Sherlock season 1 episode 1 crime scene will be here.
Me too! The lady in pink, I was sorely let down.
I was literally looking for that
Or at least a segment of Silent Witness
It is now. New video is up.
Hello!
Soooo, I'm a forensic scientist and a crime scene investigator (lol no i'm not trolling) and I must say that this man's analysis SPOT ON. I'm actually very pleased. I CRINGE at these scenes. They are usually very, very inaccurate.
In actuality it can be time consuming and tedious. (Which of course they won't have time to show on television because that would be too boring XD)
BUT! As a child growing up it is precisely because of these shows why I fell in love in the first place. So I love them all the same haha.
On a side note: It is good that it is inaccurate (After all we don't want the bad guys to know right?)
I like the fact that Iron Man 3 is more realistic than most of thses shows
Would getting a Bachelors in Science for Biochemistry help me land a career as a forensic scientist?
how do you feel about the show Bones?
I refuse to believe that a forensic scientist and crime scene investigator would use the words "lol no i'm not trolling"
@@SylvanasWindrunnerResurrected XD why?, Haha we are people too!
Edit: Actually, I wouldn't believe me either now that I think about it. It's just that I always get this expression of utter disbelief when I say this to anyone and a glare of "are you serious?". Then must provide a lengthy explanation to questions like "aren't you afraid of dead bodies?" And "So you must get paid alot, huh?"
So forgive me if I arbitrarily mention that I am indeed not making it up and just saying how I felt about this man's analysis ahaha
Omg where’s Ella?? There are many forensic scenes in Lucifer!!
That's what I also thought when I first saw the title of this vid😂
omg factssss
I like how many different points you were able to fit in regardless of the scene. Very informative
the comedy got it right wtf
When reality looks silly, then comedies will get them right.
AJ Harice because comedians are smart
Lyzzie K. That has nothing to do with being smart...
AJ Harice Yes...Castle...That's why I love that show..
If I had to guess, they wanted to make a crime scene in there comedy. but didn't want to just blindly make one and look really dumb in the process, so they probably asked actual forensic scientists how the scene would look.
have computer hackers been done yet?
Not strictly speaking, they did do one on Ocean's 8 and its hacking scenes, but it's obviously not the same thing.
click click click click click
"Dammit they have a firewall... hold on.. *ding* got it! I'm in the mainframe. I can tell because a file explorer window just opened. Searching for the McGuffin now"
Digital noises and a progress bar that moves 100% consistently pop up
"Found it! Oh no! I just got a system message that the files we need are deleting themselves, one by one, at a 100% consistent rate! See the big progress bar? We have 30 seconds before all the files are gone!"
Alternatively
Code is whizzing by at like 10,000 lines a minute
"I know this code... because I'm the one who wrote it"
My gooodddd those are never portrayed right. It would just be a constant repetition of "that's impossible".
futurestoryteller and that one was pretty trash, clearly an advertisement rather than a criticism.
I can understand why it is portrayed so inaccurately so. In a way computer programmers should be glad that they try to make it seem cool when it is really pretty boring.
The editing for this was spot on and I enjoyed the analysis very much.
can you make one of these but with a junkie responding to representations of drug experiences because I've seen some trash party sequences clearly written by people that have never been to parties
You must be fun at parties
Um, no. That just sounds silly.
Haha yeaaah bro get a grasshopper to talk about the pot needles
That does have merit. I was with an addict for years who would constantly critique those movie scenes and for a relative outsider like me I would have never noticed how inconsistent even obvious things can be such actors pretending to be high on an upper like crack but passing out as if it were heroin
That actually sounds really funny and interesting
i just love how the only movie that got "everything" right is a comedy and the only thing they didn't get right where only there for comedic purpose xD
also they do still use chalk outlines, but not on a crime scene, but on an accident scene where the victim is still alive and needs to be transported away immediately
I think Iron man did everything right as well
@@jimmyh2137 yes. Iron Man got right too in the hacking scenes according to other video about how realistic hacking scene in Films.
He was wrong talking about DNA all the time, and the worst one is criticizing the Flash and Batman
Absolutely superb critique of crime scene analysis of popular TV show and movies. I hope there is a sequel to this great video.
I've never noticed that dude limboing at 4:55 in Loaded Weapon before 😅
funny how the comedy with "The Other Guys" is the only one who got close to the real thing haha
He only ever indicated praise for "Heat" and "CSI: Miami's" scenes, and if you listen closely he doesn't trash "The Wire" scene as much as it sounds like, although he's got serious problems with it at the beginning and at the end.
futurestoryteller he clearly said the other guys got the protective clothing part right and the rest was comedy, that’s praise
I think part of that was the acknowledgement that the protective clothing plays to comedy.
Do real medical examiners with the autopsy scenes!!!
Great ideas! I wonder if they’d have enough of the debate about having an autopsy, etc, to do one with coroners. My Dad was a county coroner at one point. It was a favorite tidbit my brother would tell potential boyfriends of mine, 😅 “It would be a shame if something happened to you. But since Dad’s the coroner, I’m sure he’d make sure the ME gives your case special consideration, might conduct it himself, out of concern. It’s just such a dangerous area." 🤣 He was obvious;t full of it, but he did have fun scaring people into their very best behavior. 😜
YES please
whoever put the clip of "The other guys" to be analyzed, they deserve a raise.
please more of this category. great to watch
11:11 for Dexter
Joey bless 👏👏
Thank you!
Thanks 😂👏
Bless you
Thank you. hahahaahaha. thought that finding this comment would be a longshot.
"It's like prescribing brain surgery for a headache"
LMAO
Kevin Chan I was searching for this
I love how he mentions the Iron Man 3 one, the 'sequel' to this episode which just recently came out has the VR technology mentioned.
Spot on! Thank you. I learn so much watching this.
It's funny that Iron Man seems to be one of the more factually correct portrayals.
Jim Fortune What would be a factually incorrect method of having a super-intelligent AI analyze a 3D model of a crime scene and somehow scan a 3 mile radius for bomb shells?
qaasi95
I didn't say perfectly correct.
Jim Fortune yep. I was surprised that it was there in the first place and for him to say that they’re doing research about it and it’s possible in the future was more shocking.
No the funny part is that one of the more accurate ones was a will Ferrell movie
wait he said The other guys was the most accurate
I would have thought Bones would be in this video? Isn’t it an obvious choice? I was waiting the whole time to see temperance pop up on my screen 😂
Right! I know they based that show around a real-life anthropologist's book series but some of the scenarios were mind-boggling.
I loveeee Bones I was waiting for that too 😂
I was waiting for Bones then I scrolled down and saw this comment....I'm clicking off. #onlyhereforbones
Yeah, me too. Bones and Silent Witness. But no. 😦
Bones is terrible.
These videos are always so interesting! I agree with other comments that Bones would make a cool addition to the discussion, being an osteoarchaeologist myself (not quite the same thing but close enough; they do dip into that field of study often enough). One thing I will say about this video in particular is that in Criminal Minds, the BAU isn't meant to be a CSI team, they usually come in after all the other analysis has been done. Not saying the portrayal is super accurate, but the comments they made in this particular scene could've very likely been interpretations based on CSI and autopsy reports.
4:40 I really wanted him to comment on the two officers in the back playing limbo!
I've noticed that British shows seem to have more protective equipment in use: Tyvek suits, walkways, tents for outdoors.
It's hard to get it wrong when we see it down the street every week...
A Rather Livid Moose I didn’t realize there were so many crime scenes in the UK.
A.Grubie lol there aren’t
I have, too, but there is a higher quality in British tv overall than American
@@acrylicgodoy Agreed. That's why I subscribe to BritBox.
The guy is cool, but the editing of the video is awkward and distracting. Sure, just randomly freeze him while he's talking so he's sitting there with his mouth wide open for a few seconds.
You must be new to WIRED
Wired can be annoying that way, bordering disrespectful
Same same, it annoys me so badly for some reason i didnt even wanna finish the past vids of theirs ive watched.
Its fine
OK, well, you're supposed to move your eyeballs to focus on the part of the video that shows movement. Watching TV is not the same as staring.
Probably nobody's gonna read this but this man has such nice and kind eyes... Like when you see him you KNOW he's such a kind person
One thing i just now realized after having watched The Dark Night multiple times, and this video multiple times, about the “fingerprint recovery scene” is that you do not press the bullet into the clip. you would usually push down on the casing part of it. so not only is it scientifically impossible for the reasons he listed, it also just wouldn’t show up anyways because the thumb print would be on the casing, not the bullet
It stinks that forensic scientists don’t get paid well enough in my opinion.
3:16 - DNA was first used as part of forensic science in the 1980s. Zodiac takes place in the late 1960s.
TheZombieJC my mans going off of some scenes probs not fully informed on it all
@@joshandmaff64 oh yeh, just by the glasses you can tell
TheZombieJC Yeah. Makes me think that this is the reason they never caught the killer. They just didn’t have the technology available back than to help them with the evidence
Pay close attention “wiped the scene for prints” fingerprint analysis dated back to 1910 in France to the first forensic lab in law enforcement. But has been around since 1840. It is a forensic science.
@@mojneme Yeah, they've tested for the forensic evidence using modern methods, but nice try, guy who doesn't know much about the case.
Don't know why but I love this guy! Super interesting!
The tiny film quotes - excellently done. Thanks - Lumpy
Wait, no Bones?! Do another like this, please!
Angela Oswald
Bones is basically a cartoon. He wouldn’t have enough time to go over how scientifically stupid that show is.
I was waiting for bones also! Loveeeee!
Jesca Wright the list of movies and TV shows analysed was already disclosed in the description.
I was hoping fo Bones too ^^
Fido Montoya he covered Family Guy which IS a cartoon. He also covered a few sci-fi movies. As he mentioned, they are designed for entertainment, not accuracy. Bones is just fun to watch.
This is great. So far my strategy has been to walk into the room, say “Yep, that’s blood.” And leave the rest to the police. At least, that’s the way I think about it
*Takes one semester of forensic chemistry as a music major: I was thinking the exact same thing, they did that all wrong!
*takes none but watches crime shows religiously* : wow come on guys you should know this by now
I think this is a really cool video for me since I'm writing a detective story that has supernatural elements in it but doesn't ignore the police aspects. I binge watched a few different crime dramas like Castle and Blue Bloods to get a look at how police investigations are often written but I want what I write to be more cemented in reality. The homicide investigations being more realistic will be a nice contrast with the supernatural aspects.
I took a Forensics class back in High School which I enjoyed a lot, but it was just the basics of the field; we really just went over the different types of evidence that's collected and some rudimentary stuff about chain of custody plus who different crimes are investigated. It's also been a few years so, I don't recall all of it.
11:09 - just in case you're here for Dexter ;)
Yes.
Thanks
The homie
You're the champion
I was looking for this comment
one of my favourite things on youtube
you guys do should a whole lot more
These response constructed by cutting the movies are brilliant.
the fact that you have movies like iron man on the list but not the hannibal tv show is baffling
"Where was that pen?... Was it in your nose?" This man's got some dry humor.
"was it in your hand,was it in your ear, was it in your nose"
🤣🤣 those people really know where stuff are getting in.
I was waiting for Boondock saints so happy!🤘🏻
I love these breakdowns!
The Other Guys got the technique right?lol
i was just as surprise
This is probably one of my favorite episodes. Get this guy again--there are a ton of CSI portrayals in video games too. I would love to see the video game Heavy Rain looked at
