I'd love to hear everybody's pet peeves in movie and TV production. (sh.itjust.works)

Actors not sweeping correctly when somebody broke a glass or somebody's ashes were spilled on the floor or something like that is infuriating hahha.

They're always having some serious conversation with heavy relationship complications, but whoever has the broom is literally tapping at the mess on the floor because they know that the production crew is going to clean it up for them after the shoot, so they, the ac-tors, don't have to actually sweep the mess into the dustbin.

I f****** hate that.

Ha, cooking is a good one.

Whenever somebody cooks and nothing smokes or no extra sauce gets anywhere it shouldn't or no ingredients are on the counter or floor?

Julienned vegetables are a big one for me too.

I love the bear TV show, but very often they zoom in on one of the actors slicing a vegetable and the slices are wildly inconsistent, like at least twice as thick and thin each slice, even after they're supposed to have gone to culinary school or practiced for 10,000 or whatever.

Small thing, but this is a peeve thread, and I love the show otherwise or I wouldn't even complain about it, but those thick and thin slices are such a glaring incongruence with the rest of the show.
