“As we all know” style conversations, where characters reiterate things that they all know for the audience’s benefit.
That’s called exposition, and when it’s obvious it’s being done it can be really bad.
Incidentally, I was just reading book 2 of a trilogy and rather than try to casually mention the events of book 1 here and there as a reminder—which a lot of books do—the prologue was a complete summary of book 1 written as a holy book from 1000 years in the future. It was a really cool way of doing it. Book 1 had chapter intros from the same future holy book, too, but have it as a big infodump was a great reminder of the story.
