make it blindingly obvious to the viewer that Breakfast Is Happening™
In others words “assume the viewer is too stupid to understand up cereal + day light + kitchen + after night time scene = breakfast.”
That’s one issue I have with a lot of newer shows and movies. Yes the older ones were guilty of it too, but now it feels like we’re being spoonfed every detail. “Did you catch the foreshadowing?? Here lets play it 3 times in slow motion, zoom in on it, and have a character say “oh look, that might be important later””
