Do you ever watch a show and burst out laughing at how incorrectly they represented a field? In a procedural I put on as background noise today, the investigator asked a prof if any of her students might harbour anti-tech views.

Her reply?

"I'm a post-modernist. In my area of study technological inventions are often viewed as art objects."

🤣 5 bucks says the writer of this script didn't even bother to look up post-modern lit and its dominant themes.

What's the best groaner you've seen?

@MLClark FBI on CBS. Every other week there is a bomb threat, and there is never enough time to wait for the bomb squad so the main characters handle it by cutting some random wire.

Oof. FBI are definitely in the top tier for misrepresented labour on TV!
