dead horse cliché


a cliché in popular fiction that was common at one point in time, but has become so overused that it no longer has any relevance, so whenever it’s used consecutively, it is as though the writers are “beating up a dead horse”.

fred: triads? that’s been a dead horse cliché since the last decade.
mick: yeah, they’re just beating up a dead horse.
