17 TV Shows & Movies That Forgot How Aging Worked

TV shows and movies often go all out on the plot to deliver the content to the audience. Sometimes they don’t bother to fine-tune the details. One such detail may be the age of the character. There are many TV shows and movies where the characters have been inconsistent about the details of their age. The visual details are also to blame. Sometimes creators completely miss out on what a person of that age is supposed to look like. Here are a few shows and movies that didn’t take aging too seriously.
