lol hate that crap!

Mine is every motorcycle sounds like a 70’s era 2 stroke. All cars are 20 speed manual transmissions.

Why cut the wire on the bomb when the blasting cap is right there and you can just pull it out.

There is a truly great Murder, She Wrote episode along these lines. I will try and find a cite.

You would practically 100% of the time prefer a rifle over a pistol.


Or they kill a guy holding a machine gun with their knife and then keep on going with the knife to the next bad guy. No, I don't think I'll need a gun to kill these 6 guys.. I've got a knife!

When a car skids to a stop and barely misses someone/something, and there are 6 layers of rubber already there because the shot took multiple takes.

Siderails not up on hospital beds.

Mine is this- driving in a major city, pull up to the building- office, condo, hotel- and there’s always an available parking space by the front door.

If that show had come out a few years later then I would swear Penny had an anonymous OF site to pay for that.

Either that or the Cheesecake Factory where she lives has the most generous tippers in the history of restaurants.

For me, nearly any scene depicting hacking or computers used for anything more elaborate than a spreadsheet or email.

Amount of ammo automatic weapons have. Unlimited. Spraying bullets, no one is hit. Looking at you storm troopers

There's a fan theory that she's a spy. Possibly paid by the North Koreans after Joyce Kim failed in her attempt to get that rocket fuel recipe from Leonard.

The Supergirl series on CBS/CW was the top offender here. The main part of her job in her secret identity was getting coffee, and she'd walk into every episode holding an obvious tray of empty cups.
