The older I get, the more I notice TV and movie clichés that remind me I’m living in reality. It’s funny to think that no one ever has to go to the bathroom or they can afford a 3 bedroom apartment in Manhattan as an artist. I get it, the shows would be boring without being able to suspend disbelief but sometimes it’s so obnoxious that it pulls me out of it and then I get distracted.
My biggest gripe with TV and movies is when there’s a phone number and they replace the first 3 numbers with “555”. I realize it prevents them from accidentally using someone’s phone number but can’t they just buy a dummy phone number to use so I’m not taken out of the scene every time a character has to dial 555?
There are a ton of funny TV and movie clichés being brought to light on Twitter and they’re all pretty accurate. Let us know if there are any others out there in the comments!
