the fact that the writers insert the word "literally" once into every single script---and always incorrectly---really bothers me.

The word literally is annoying in this context. "I was hit by a car, literally...a car." "The surgery literally saved my life." Dont need the word literally, it eier saved your life or did not.

People did not say this in the 1980's.

Sounds like you're referring to the daughter. Very good actress. Clearly not right for the part, nor is she made up well. Looks more like 2001 than 1987.
