Here are some of the best responses:
1.House
2.Grey’s Anatomy
3.Emily in Paris
4.The Office(US)
5.Criminal Minds
6.Yellowstone
7.NCIS
8.Shrill
And then there are some jobs that are portrayed incorrectly in almost every piece of media they’re in…
9.“Ranchers for sure. My older sister has been working with horses her whole life (and subsequently, myself) and it is NOWHERE near as whimsical and happy-go-lucky as portrayed.”
10.“I work for a high-end builder. Yes, everything you see on HGTV is heavily edited, and no, they did not do a full home renovation in 48-hours.”
11.“Teachers are usually poorly represented in films or on TV.”
12.“I am currently an investigator, specifically, and only for animal cruelty in my state, but I worked in animal control for three years prior. Animal Control is constantly portrayed incorrectly.”
13.“I’m a paramedic, but in any medical drama where a resuscitation takes place, the CPR is laughable the majority of the time.”
14.“Graphic designer or art director.”
15.“I was a bank auditor for years and had to review bank security and count cash. It has ruined almost every bank robbery movie and TV show for me.”
16.“Therapist — not one single show or movie has accurately portrayed what a session of psychotherapy looks like.”
