Star Trek: Picard: Hide and Seek (2022)
Season 2, Episode 9
Writers assume their audience cant understand anything
29 April 2022
We have to show green lasers that makes enemies super easy to shoot, because otherwise the audience won't be able to tell that someone is trying to shoot the main characters, and be totally confused.

When the main group split up to get into the ship, we cut to a flash back, when we cut back, they had and ADR line that says "we gotta get to the ship" because if we dont say that, the audience would have forgotten what they were doing 2 minutes ago and be totally confused.

We have to say out loud that a gun will explode if someone other than its owner is holding it, because otherwise the audience wont understand what the increasing beeping sound means and be totally confused.

When enemies are shooting at the main character, we must add in the line "they are pinning us down to stop us to get to the ship" because if you dont say it, the audience wont know what's going on and be totally confused.

After all, the audience are fans of star trek, you can't assume they have any intellegence whatsoever.
