Another TV Character saying: “I told you that I don’t like guns,” CW’s The Professionals

Aug 20, 2024 | Media Bias

This episode of CW’s’ “The Professionals” was released on August 1, 2020, and it has a standard line in so many television and movies where characters say things like: “I told you that I don’t like guns.” Unlike most shows, there is some push back on this, but the person making the claim about not liking guns has the final word on it.

CW’s The Professionals, August 1, 2020, Season 1, Episode 5. See also Episode 1.
