I might add that there is more to dreams than just sight and sound.  I
found it very easy to believe
the "extra information"  Cooper provides at breakfast.  i.e. He knew
that Bob shot Mike simply because knowing it was a part of his dream. 
It was not something we saw because it was not something that could be
filmed.  I would agree that it is annoying in a TV show, but not that it
is hard to believe.
