One thing I will say about TV and movies in general though, is that I HATE how we see a scene where something significant happens, and then less than five minutes later they show a flashback of that scene. FFS, I’m watching the show/movie, and I remember this thing that happened mere minutes ago. I’m not that stupid that you need to replay it again.

I noticed this too, very annoying, seems like a cheap way to spare screen time.

Thanks for your recommendations!

My wife thinks it’s because so many people watch tv while scrolling their phones or tablets. Either way it's a modern film convention that I do not like.
