To be fair, I can only tell when it's computer-related nonsense, but I absolutely cannot tell if (for example) medical dramas such as Grey's Anatomy are at all realistic, barring reasonable artistic licenses to make a scene more dramatic. The surgeons could be doing something as silly as "hacking the same keyboard" and I wouldn't know. The computer-related scenes in medical dramas are dumb enough that I suspect the medical stuff probably also is, but I can't tell.
My aunt, who was a forensic doctor, would be driven up the walls by the absurdity of the CSI screenplays. I'm an engineer and they manage to trigger me into laughter.
A bit is suspension of disbelief when some inaccuracy is needed by the story (like the sandstorm in The Martian) is tolerable, but completely messing up innocuous stuff you should have hired a field specialist to help you (physics, astronomy, police, medical, anything) with is inexcusable with the kind of budget even a lowly Sharknado has.
Seriously: I love movies. I was torn between engineering and cinema in college. Let's join together to never again have a cringe worthy moment on TV (unless it's there for the comedy value).
They removed that part of scene from the episode on the DVD. I was watching for it and laughed when I realized it had been excised. Too embarrassing, eh?
The interesting thing is that in the first few seasons NCIS got a lot of the computer tech mostly right (modulo some dramatic license regarding easy access to every possible data source the government might have) but as they relied more on Tim the IT guy as a convenient oracle for moving the plot along it quickly dove into "enhance, enhance, enhance..." mode.
