I realize I might get mobbed, but truths must be told:
"Show, don't tell" is incorrect.
It's more like:
"Show. You can also tell."
Even completely on-the-nose dialogue can elevate a story at times, and even if can be done better, the style can rarely be duplicated.

@netflix.com tried to make a romantic drama but accidentally made a live-action anime. Just look at this gorgeous anime-like shot!
Kosuke Yamada, the cinematographer of the show, is responsible for more anime-like shots like that, spread across an otherwise beautifully shot show.

Overrated story element #2: Conflict
It's a misconception that conflict is necessary to create interesting stories.
The true deciding factor is an emotional connection to the characters. If you create that with the audience, they _will_ be hooked.
Conflict is just a very efficient way to do that.

Overrated story element #1: foreshadowing.
Often, it's fine to just surprise the audience.
It is useful in mostly 2 cases:
1. Natural course of events. E.g. characters may hear or smell gas before an explosion
2. It reveals necessary context. Twists only work if they're plausible to anticipate
