unfortunately because it's netflix we'll never get season 2 to see what happens when they finish the cups

[@HaloTropical]

Hopefully not murder, that's bad.

[@catdogmousecheese]

Oh, no we will get a season 2...it'll just be released like seven years later after most of the original fans forgot the show even existed and have a completely different tone than season 1 because it has a new director and writers.

[@D_YellowMadness]

​@@catdogmousecheeseAnd it'll take place multiple years later with multiple dropped plot threads because all the kid actors are adults now.

Not just Netflix shows. I remember being really annoyed watching doctor shows like scrubs or house because their takeout coffee cups were always clearly empty. Like.. just put water in it or something damn

[@moondog548]

Beanbag!

[@andraspalatinus145]

I have never noticed that, but why is that though? Why they should act like they are drinking coffee instead of really drinking coffee? Okay it could get cold, put some frappe in it. They would naturally put the cup down, if something is happening, not holding it like a trash looking for a bin.

[@EasilyBoredGamer]

@@andraspalatinus145 they do that because of retakes they would probably end up drinking that cup of coffee 10 times. If you see someone actually eat or drink on camera, they probably felt like shit.

[@canoa223]

@@EasilyBoredGamer But with liquids you don't actually need to drink it. Let it touch your lips and it's more convincing that someone holding a clearly empty cup. Food is a problem for sure

[@pkattk]

@@andraspalatinus145 From what I gather from what set designers have said, to minimize the risk of spills disrupting filming. Especially for tv shows where filming needs to happen at a very fast and strict schedule.

[@DavidM-yi9hk]

The absolute spills, he never makes them.

[@CommentaryCommenter]

The real empty cup was the multi-billion dollar corporation they worked for along the way.

[@ryankowitzjohnnykliss484]

Dude when I was watching this my PC kept having a huge pixel error and I weirdly assumed that the joke was that netflix cups be ruining your screen on the regular.

[@Luksa175]

The detail that he first drinks the cup empty and then immediately takes a small sip indicating that it's almost full to the brim is so real.

[@TimL-nr4hr]

Whenever I'm an extra on a film or television show and they have us drinking things, we stand around with glasses filled with ginger ale and we are supposed to pretend that we are drinking but we never drink a thing. Knowing this is almost as funny as knowing that every dance scene was filmed in silence.

[@mrfhd6227]

Joshua saga continues!

[@MattMakesMovies.]

I really liked how he drank from the cup.

[@aaronjohnson7258]

This is also about how cups seemingly never run out of whatever beverage a character is drinking

[@0BucketMask0]

Now I want to make a movie where one character is constantly noisily slurping soda out of a clear bottle and occasionally belching really loud and all the other characters very visibly hate him for it; rolling their eyes, sighing, and face palming every single time he pulls out his drink. He refills the bottle on screen six times throughout the duration of the movie, and in the last scene someone grabs it and throws it off a cliff. No one ever verbally mentions it.

[@tlah123]

Holding the cup to your ear? A fellow wine snob, I see!
