Beans, orbies, just make special weighted cups for sets. No actor in the history of acting has picked up an empty paper coffee cup and gestured with it as if it had something in it.
And while we’re at it… in this the year two thousand and twenty five, how do we still not have prop ice that floats?
And stop using the exact same coffee cup with a Greek blue and gold antiquity pattern for every single cop show. Is there one coffee shop in NY? Spiros Coffee?
And when they drink from their cup, they always tilt it like they were sipping on empty cup. Even when they just taken it from the coffee machine. When I do that I always burn my mouth, because coffee will be too hot. It takes long to coffee cool down in paper cups.
PUT. SOMETHING. IN THE FUCKING CUPS.

Someone pointed this out to me once, and now I can’t unsee it. It drives me mad. Every cup, every scene… Weightless and fake.
PUT SOMETHING IN THE DAMN CUPS
So what, you’re telling me you don’t tilt the cup to be perpendicular for every sip?
And stop using the exact same coffee cup with a Greek blue and gold antiquity pattern for every single cop show. Is there one coffee shop in NY? Spiros Coffee?
Actually those things really are ubiquitous in NYC and environs.
And when they drink from their cup, they always tilt it like they were sipping on empty cup. Even when they just taken it from the coffee machine. When I do that I always burn my mouth, because coffee will be too hot. It takes long to coffee cool down in paper cups.
