When did H and A become so crime driven?

[Luke39]

Was watching home away in nz today. Where Kat gets shot by the drug guy. Felt like i was watching Blue Heelers lol. When did this show become so crime focused? Havent watched as reguarly as i once did. I guess the influx of dramatic moments are so constant, when it gets amped up it loses its impact. Not to mention the Phoebee, Ash, Kyle storyline is a carbon copy of Neighbors Amber, Josh  and Daniel. Im presuming Kyles the daddy haha. That wasent really my point tho..
