All kinds of shows have totally unrealistic fights, shooting scenes and results. The moves that lay people out would merely annoy a real salty thug type, or break the bones of the person throwing the strike. 130 lb folks going up against 280 lb, 6ft5 inch guys who also can fight. Without ( and sometimes even with ) weapons the 130 lb person when gotten ahold of is done. Petite Women trying to beat up large men in reality have about as much chance as I would have against a 500 lb silverback gorilla. Bone structure and density, joint mechanics and muscle mass a great deal and can really go a large way towards defeating smaller people with slightly better technique.What is funny to me is how these skinny Women wearing high heels that are supposed to be LEO's running down the bad guys and over powering them.
This is coming from someone that despite being well trained, able to lift well over twice my weight and in great shape was pinned to the ceiling by a guy 70 lbs heavier and 4 inches taller than me. :)
I know how useful joint locks, choke and strangle holds can be but good luck trying to apply one to a 6'3" , 330lb Samoan Defensive tackle who has wrists too big to put handcuffs on. We had to use leg cuffs on his wrists but he easily could have broken them. To this day I am grateful that he was such a nice guy. I wouldn't want to shot the guy without having some distance, and a hard hitting rifle with deep penetrating bullets. I've seen 160 lb guys take 5 or 6 guys to handle ( without killing him naturally. )
I'm a "Banshee" fan ( Cinemax series) but 120lb models just don't beat up groups of thugs in reality.
I have met and worked with some tough, tough, mean women but women as well as men have limitations and should pay attention to them. There again reality isn't why I watch TV. I have reality in my life. I like entertainment.
In that show one of the most lethal guys is a tranny. :)
