Well put.
I tend to dislike entertainment about serious stuff because sooner than later, there will be unrealistic shit that pops up, and the realism preceding it only makes the bullshit stand out that much more.
If I'm going to watch something historical, it better be very loosely based on reality & preferably funny.

Not only this frees the writers to be a lot more creative, unrealistic situations can often be the highlights of the show.
