I think there’s an open space in the entertainment genre map: How about we make competence porn except where the competent people are also the good guys?

Do you mean like Sherlock/Elementary, House, the Mentalist,… but as a reality show and not fiction? Is this related?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wetten,_dass..%3F …

I sort of like it where competence is a metaphorical superpower not a literal superpower. Sherlock is a fun thing to watch but you have to just to go with the conceit that he's a wizard who slums as a scientist/detective. House has similar issues for me.

The new PACIFIC RIM is very this. Also pretty much RAMPAGE and TOMB RAIDER. And written genre SF is chockablock with it.

I suppose like other types of porn, I’m more interested in competence in a group than I am in a solo master. Only ever seen this in documentaries really, e.g. Jiro Dreams of Sushi, maybe some episodes of Ugly Delicious.

this is sort of a youtube genre in the craftsmanship sense - lots of people making intricate pocketwatch mechanisms or woodworkers slowly honing a joint or building fine furniture
