Millions for special effects, but not one cent for proofreading

Forty seconds into this trailer for SyFy’s “The Ark” — it’s hard to tell because it’s small and pausing on YouTube puts the video controls over it — the word “maintenance” is misspelled on an ID badge.

This is not the first big-budget production to screw up on the little things. “Star Trek: Discovery” — which I only watched because CBS aired Season 1 (2017) during the pandemic — misspelled “protocols.” Put it in the okudagram hall of shame.

(Also, the word “representative” is misspelled in a hallway in a quick scene in “Joker”, but I don’t have a screengrab of that.)
