I’m aware of the NCIS scenes, what else you guys got?

    The ones that really get me are the way they show execs at companies. The “look, this character is so bad ass at being an exec!”. They always come off as so unrealistic and cringy.

    I’ve swam in that ocean, and that’s not how that shit works. Engineering too. In reality, it’s always a team of engineers that get something done… It is NEVER some rich smart guy inventing stuff on his or her own in their super fancy workshop.

      Every exec I’ve known was either a good people manager, a founding member, has asaloads of money, or some combination thereof.

      Some of them were geniuses, but that actually made them worse at their jobs.

      yeah but a script that sucks the balls of an executive is far more likely to be greenlit.
