Characters never seem to finish their meals (and leave most of their food untouched in cafes which hurts me on a personal level), they don\u2019t say \u2018goodbye\u2019 when they end their calls, and whenever they switch on the TV, there\u2019s always a news segment on that\u2019s relevant to their situation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Really, life seems much more convenient on-screen. But it is raising some eyebrows. So much so that the people over on Twitter are posting example after example of how bizarre life is when you\u2019re a film or TV character. Scroll down to check out these funny quirks and remember to upvote the ones that made you pause for a moment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pop culture and entertainment expert Mike Sington, who is a former Senior Executive at NBCUniversal, explained to <strong>Bored Panda<\/strong> that unrealistic scenarios and acting decisions are required to keep the plot moving on a TV show. &#8220;No one wants to see characters eat a full meal, that would bring a storyline to a screeching halt! Things like seeing a relevant news segment playing can immediately fast forward a storyline or emphasize a plot point. It\u2019s a common tool that writers use,&#8221; he said. And we fully agree. (Though the Joey Tribbiani in all of us is wondering how good the meal has to be to get featured from start to finish.)<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-us\/channel\/source\/Bored%20Panda\/sr-vid-txrs4te28kwcsdrc0dpxbbw8vxmd9pe0wskew5qma2etcx500wwa\" rel=\"nofollow\" class=\" staff-link\">Click here<\/a><\/strong> &amp; follow us for more lists, facts, and stories.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"didomi\/javascript\">\nwindow._fbSDKPromise = window._fbSDKPromise || new Promise((resolve, reject) => {\nwindow.fbAsyncInit = function () {\nFB.init({\nappId  : '887842622821495',\nversion: 'v17.0',\nstatus : true,\ncookie : true,\nxfbml  : false\n});\nresolve(FB);\n};\n\/\/ Load SDK only once\nif (!document.getElementById('facebook-jssdk')) {\nconst script = document.createElement('script');\nscript.id = 'facebook-jssdk';\nscript.async = true;\nscript.src = `https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/${BoredPanda.Config.wp_lang}\/sdk.js`;\nscript.onerror = reject;\ndocument.head.appendChild(script);\n}\n});\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async=\"async\" data-cfasync=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/pl30214220.effectivecpmnetwork.com\/9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\/invoke.js\"><\/script>\r\n<div id=\"container-9ab3d4df8a7e1a6171e16ddbf732cc19\"><\/div>\r\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you think about it, TV Land is such a weird place.
