And when they come back to life after CPR I sit there going "hello? *flail* You need a defibrillator! CPR is just a stop-gap")
Oh, no kidding! There's a Farscape episode where John teaches Aeryn to give him CPR in case he temporarily dies and it's a great episode and a fantastic scene and the CPR is a lot better looking than most tv CPR but...just...NO!
I still remember the first time I watched Lost and I picked up halfway through an episode and the doctor character found another character strung up by his neck and...pretty much did everything as wrong as possible. From then on I failed to believe he was a doctor.
I mean, I don't have medical training - just Red Cross First Responder stuff but I'm catching all this. They must have someone on set who knows better!
