yet another reason 'dallas' is the shit.

has anyone else noticed what the most common prop is on TV? what almost every TV character is carrying around at some point during the show?

a coffeehouse-type disposable coffee cup. next time you watch a prime time show, keep track of how many coffee cups make their appearance. better yet, keep track of how many times the characters set down the cups and you hear a hollow 'thunk'. at least they could fill them up with water for a realistic sound when they're put down. drives me crazy.

if you're ever cruising the soapnet channel around 11am eastern, watch a bit of 'dallas.' those were the good old days when actors used real brown water in their coffee cups. there's a thousand reasons why 'dallas' rocks and that's just one of them.
