Others may not though. The point remains that it should never be used except for emergencies and as others have pointed out this tone can trigger other things to happen as well which can then in turn create an emergency.

Well obviously not because you still recognise it and know it to be in use for an emergency. You aren’t desensitised. Just because you may not react doesn’t mean you are desensitised. You still know “that’s an emergency”. If it’s being played all the time in movies and tv and such you eventually hit a point where you stop thinking emergency and think “eh just a movie”. Your brain stops recognising it as an emergency sound and as just a sound that’s recognisable but not anything to worry about.

As others have said it’s to protect the integrity of it. If it’s being used in movies and TV shows then people get use to hearing it and it loses its impact and people won’t listen to it when it is real and just ignore it as being a movie on tv or something like that. Even if it makes sense in the context of the movie you are still using something that is only meant for emergencies and that’s it. The more it gets used outside of that though the less impact it has and so emergencies won’t be listened to as much or brushed off and ignored as not being the real deal.

It gets slightly better as it shifts to slightly more action paced but honestly my brain was switched off for the most part by episode 3.

I only finished it because I did want to see how stupid the whole thing got.

Good call. It got slightly better with some ok fast paced action, but I might only like this because people stopped talking and so the stupidity of it all wasn’t as noticeable.

Agreed.

There is not a single moment in this show so far where I’ve found the actions of these people to be at all logical or the actions of someone in their position.

It’s complete utter nonsense where every character literally has to have brain trauma to explain the actions they are doing.

Not to mention there really isn’t a single likeable character in this show so far at all.

Don’t. I’m up to episode three and they are seriously so fucking dumb and the wife just gets worse.

I can’t believe the level of stupidity in this show.
