In many countries today, crime novels and TV crime dramas are becoming more and more popular. Why do you think these books and TV shows are so popular? What is your opinion of crime fiction and TV crime dramas?
Nowadays, many
books
and TV
shows containing crime
and violence have become popular recently. This
phenomenon stems from several reasons. In each country, there are many issues and difficulties, such
as poverty, murders, financial problems, and so on that people
are facing today, affected by them and trying to deal with. As a result
, people
make their own stories, In this
essay, I will outline the reasons and give my view about this
rising popularity.
To begin
, there are several reasons behind this
rising popularity which lie in the fact that the reality of today's world has been transferred to books
and TV
programs. Firstly
, a number of books
are based on true stories. Authors write books
, and then
directors, especially screenwriters, adapt them for creating movies, series and TV
shows. Then
, they become more popular than other genres because they are real.
On top of that, due to
the poverty in societies and corruption in different government infrastructures, some folks have become more violent than before. and this
behaviour is influenced by several violent movies and video games as well. Consequently
, violence in cities has increased nowadays which then
will affect the movie companies to make films and authors to write books
containing crime
, murder and other mysteries.
However
this
phenomenon exists in today's world, I believe that crime
novels and TV
crime
shows should not be made to encourage people
to follow these kinds of activities. Authors and screenwriters can focus more on a positive approach to people
's lives in order to be both popular and encouraging. What's more, the majority of crime
fiction and murder mysteries have happy endings that are not likely to happen in reality. Therefore
, many crowds may have this
personal interpretation that they may be able to get off easily or be successful in criminal activities.
To sum up
, although
crime
novels and crime
fiction have become popular these days that are as a result
of the public's behaviour in societies, I believe that they are not ethical and steps should be taken to persuade and encourage the public to do better , not impair the situation.Submitted by bb_emperator on
