In the last episode: Randomly placed coloured lights that did nothing
but add garish colour to the set and look unflattering on the actors.
Some lighting cameramen obviously equate lots of colour with the future.
They also use a horrible diffusing filter on the cameras.
Bad DOP's often place far too many lights on set and cover their
cameras's with excessive filters to make up for (or distract you from)
the fact that they don't know what they are doing.
