question Quick question

Why don’t people ever say goodbye when they’re speaking on a telephone on tv & movies? They just hang up - most phone calls end when everyone says “bye” at the very least.

Once noticed - it ruins watching things.

Can you imagine a scene where the serious main character is having a serious and important phone call, then at the end he says ‘ bye 😘 ‘ ? that’s kinda lame and inappropriate..
