A major trope that really irks Hallmark viewers is how the main characters hold empty cups even while “sipping” them. U/carneylansford wrote, “Obviously empty coffee cups and presents are the bane of my existence. Put something in there!”
It’s always laughably obvious to these fans when the actors carry lightweight coffee mugs and cups. U/Frellie53 says, “I don’t understand why they don’t just put water in the cups. At least they would look like they had something. You carry an empty cup differently. I find it so distracting.” In response, u/WhoWhaaaa helpfully suggested, “At least put a rock or something in the cup to add some weight to it.”

U/TheMrsFisher08 went even further into detail about this inconsistency in their post: “Every coffee cup is empty. The sound is the empty cup sound when placed on a table. They drink it back like it’s not a fresh piping hot cup of coffee.”
There are plenty of ridiculous conventions Hallmark fans will swallow because it’s part of the movie formula. But extremely empty plastic prop cups are a step too far for these r/HallmarkMovies commenters.
