[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Full disclosure: I am a Boomer, so maybe that's the problem. Not so much plots, maybe, but scenes or even moments in a show can really, really irritate me. Awkward writing. Character reactions to something that are off base. Going overboard when stereotyping 50s male chauvinism or any other particular stereotype. Errors about ordinary facts--the equivalent, say, of incorrectly stating the boiling temperature of water. Anachronisms (I swear I saw a post-it note on a prop in a show taking place in the 1950s). Is this an age thing? Obviously, age affects recognition of anachronisms, but is being more and more irritated over the other stuff a symptom of age or of high expectations/standards? The books/video entertainment that pleases me the most has none of these potholes. [/quote] Boomer as in your parents were WW2 vets, ie born in the late 40s to early 60s? Or the tiktok definition of boomers of any adult older than a millenial? [/quote]
