    I remember reading somewhere that TV show writers/producers are well aware of this and it’s kind of a sport to get the most ridiculous hacking scene in.

    Real hacking would be kind of boring to show, it would just be a guy staring at a screen for hours on end and occasionally typing something.

      The show that does it best is Mr robot, at least as far as I am aware it has the most realistic hacking scenes.
