Let's get some original ideas in television.

    There are plenty. Severance? Shrinking? Ted Lasso? The Rehearsal? Murderbot? Pokerface? High Potential? The Pitt? Foundation? The Last of Us? The White Lotus? Stick?

    There is absolutely no reason why I can't want another season of something I enjoy. As long as it isn't another season with Dave Franco.

    The Last of Us

    That's,,,, that's not an original idea?

    It's a video game, not a TV show. Don't be pedantic.

    Don't be pedantic.

    You mean, don't be accurate. The fun thing about pedantry is that it isn't useless. It literally is about the meaning of words. If you use the wrong words and are incorrect, you don't get to blame other people for correcting you.

    Original means original, not a remake, not an adaptation, not a re-invisioning.

  • I mean, it's still not an original idea. We have so many adaptions as well and I want to see more new ideas. Some of my favourite shows are adaptions but I'm so sick of the discourse around "did they do it right or not" when there could just be original ideas.

    Many of those are adaptations.

    It's still an original idea and not a reboot

    In film and TV, original means it was not derived from pre-existing source material. Reboots, adaptations, remakes and revivals are not original.

    You are proof that people with different opinions can agree on things. I agree about wanting more Scrubs, but baby Franco was probably the best part of that terrible 9th season.

    That's honestly surprising. She hasn't done anything with scrubs since the end of season 8. It honestly seemed like she didn't like them or something

    She was always billed lowest, and generally de-emphasized in marketing materials despite having the third or fourth most screentime depending on the season (After JD and Cox, and later Turk after season 4).

    They also kind of made her out to be a pain in the ass with little redeeming qualities over the years.

    Maybe the writers didn't like her as a character. She was usually the "straight man" to JD and Turk goofing off. There was the love triangle with Cox, but that fizzled and went nowhere. She sort of became best friends with Elliot, but they didn't seem to have any genuine chemistry or shared interests, so it always seemed forced.

    I dont think it was bad. But it definitely should have been a proper spinoff doing its own thing, rather than just trying to keep Scrubs limping on.

    It should have been a spinoff series. If I remember correctly, they creator made it a new season so he could keep the staff working during the writer's strike.

    I did think it was good for what it is.

    I was happy about her not being a part of it. She was basically the buzzkill character most of the time. Sure she kept things grounded, but I never watch Scrubs for groundedness.

    JD... Dorian? The D stands for Dorian... wouldn't it at least be John "JD" Dorian?
