How about if we come up with a list of annoying Hollywood stereotyping? (And to be clear, I just watched the latest movie from the Magical World of Harry Potter, which is where I came up with this idea, so it's not just Hollywood. It's film studios around the world.)
-- "Religious fanatics" are always the bad guys. And, even if the religion isn't Christianity, (like Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them), it is Christianity thinly disguised.
-- One exception to the last one -- the Catholic priest, who is always "enlightened" and the prefect counselor in any given situation, particularly if someone is having "a crisis of faith," because they're guaranteed to steer the person any which way but to God.
-- If someone goes on pain meds, it's always oxycodone. And when they do, guaranteed the person will become addicted to it within a matter of weeks. And, if not helped by a friend, guaranteed to go right to shooting up after that.
-- You can tell a couple is madly in love by how hard they slam each other into a wall while kissing and flinging off their clothes. The more they hurt each other, the more in love they are. Added bonus, being able to rip out the other's tonsils with their teeth while kissing.
-- If one of the people in a relationship lies, even once, guaranteed the relationship won't make it. Doesn't matter if they withhold the truth to protect the other person, the relationship will be over the second the other one finds out.
-- In TV shows, if the two main characters are a man and woman, who are obviously attracted to each other, the end of season three will be their first kiss, the beginning of season four, they'll regret that kiss, and they won't date until season seven.
-- In spy shows there is always a mole and headquarters will be blown up.
-- Homosexuals make up 3% of the American population, but 30% of TV characters. Homosexual marriages are always perfect.
-- The intellectuals can never believe in God. They can believe in ghosts, animal spirits, familiar animals, Buddhism, Islam, and voodoo, but never in God.
-- In whodunit's, it is always the second person who knows the victim, unless there is a well-known guest star. The it is the well-known guest star.
