Is it forbidden for writers to attend basic school in United States?

The idea was good, but the delivery is just so cringe and basic.

The typical rookie writing mistakes are in abundance. You need a character to appear capable? Then make her stated she attended Harvard. Needed some diversity? Then make US marines joke about hitting the new translator. Needed another character looks smart? Make her give unsolicited advise in a computer game to a colleague.

Marines doesn't know how to make basic advances. Scientists doesn't know how to do science. Everything relies on the actions of few rebellious characters...

This is just another example of American media collapsing pathetically again...

The actual earthquake lasted for more than 80 seconds. It was really long. I was expecting a lot more of the movement, and different people experiencing things. At least some imagery of the news TV show just before all went dark. But in the show was just a few seconds. Not enough to get invested in a whole series. The dialogue of the woman reporter and her crew was wooden, unrealistic and disgustingly modern. Not at all how it was on that moment: Nobody was prepared, nobody had lived through something like this. It was obvious it was written by somebody who haven't lived through any event similar, neither worked in news. I don't know of they try to portrait her as a protagonist but instead seemed an antihero. The aspect of the hospital was better done. But again, the "speeches" other doctor and similar are completely unrealistic. People just started helping without anybody giving those kind of lame words. It's a shame, because it could have been a great show.
