I guess it bothers some people but I just can't see it that way. I really don't expect much in the way of realism of most shows, no matter how great they may be. H2O isn't great IMO but I think it has to live on with its melodrama. I think it's almost an oxymoron to berate it for being a melodrama. Though I agree that shows like this may be a bit harder to swallow due to there being a lot of specific strenuous circumstances including a lot of supernatural events that lead up to it unlike something like True Tears that at least give an illusion of a more realistic (though IMO, True Tears sorta teeters on being totally unrealistic with its social situation alone).
