Are we talking photography or something NSFL?
You need a red bulb for your photography darkroom. And black & white developing is (a little) more forgiving of (a little) outside leaking in than color developing.

They smell like developer fluid (fixer?), and so will your clothes after you’ve been in there long enough.. the red light you always see in the movies isn’t common—the dark rooms I’ve been in use amber colored lights. Come to think of it I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone use an enlarger in a movie or TV show, they always just cut right to the paper in the developer

I think that about covers dark rooms? Although I’ve never used one for colour photography; I doubt many people have though, as that’s been mostly done by automation in full darkness since it became a thing.

Maybe the tv people are just using pinhole cameras loaded with light sensitive paper instead of film.
