What inconsistency in a TV show you love drives you mad?

For me it's one in Gilmore Girls

It's established canon that Lorelei ran away at age 16, and has lived in Stars Hollow for 15 years.

It is also established canon that Lorelei can't cook and has basically relied on Luke to feed her child since she was small.

An ex girlfriend of Luke's is introduced to the show, despite the fact she has lived in the small town before and dated the guy whose cafe Lorelei practically lives in, she has apparently never met or even heard of this woman who the entire town knows well.

It doesn't add up

(I overanalyse Gilmore Girls massively all the time, I find the psychology really interesting Lorelei is blatantly an antihero masquerading as a hero)BlushGrin

Even though Heartbeat has been going for 30 years, and all the original characters are visibly 30 years older (or have died) it is still the 1960s. The barmaid specifically freaks me out as she is both about 15 and about 45 in different series yet the same 60s music is always number 1 in the charts

I just assumed that Rizzo had a lot of sex, not that she might've fallen pregnant the one time we saw her at it on screen

I had to stop watching Outlander because the clothing drove me insane. Claire was meant to have gone back in time with presumably no extra time-travel appropriate clothing. She then showed up in elaborate outfits which would have been very valuable at a time when clothing was made by hand. Every time it came on I would moan to my husband about it until he made me stop watching Blush.

To be honest, I'm on S4 Of Outlander and it's so fucking ridiculous I don't think I can keep watching
