Oh Elliot. Such girl, perfect booty
To this day Scrubs still is the show with most hot girls I've watched.
Scrubs though. My favourite TV show and my first source of information for sex-related topics during my teenage years as we didn't really have a pc until later and sex was, and still is, regarded as taboo to my Catholic parents.
I'm thankful this show exists.
Voted most accurate TV medical show!
Other than all the babes, but I'm not complaining.
I worked in a pediatric hospital... attractive ladies were a dime a dozen. All batshit crazy though.
This is, uh, not the case in the south, unless you're into Ruben.
Not in my south. I had to switch pediatrics to follow my doctor, who left because one of the other doctors and an RN slept with a patient's father. And they were all previously married. Everyone who worked there was attractive and also crazy. The new clinic is still filled with hot people, but they don't sleep with patients' guardians. AFAIK lol
Jesus Christ, how horrible! Which hospital was it specifically so I can avoid them in the near future?
Uh, which hospital? No reason.
Yes I remember that. Also it happened more than once that patients seeking treatment stopped by thinking that previously dismissed hospital resumed operations 😂
Prior to House MD. Scrubs launched 2001 and House in 2004. House MD is arguably the most accurate medical show to exist, mainly because the majority of wacky medical mysteries came from actual doctors. It is still TV of course, but real stories can't be beat by Hollywood make believe.
Same with Scrubs. What makes Scrubs a lot more accurate is most of the times doctors aren't dealing with crazy medical mysteries.
The cases may be real, however medicine is never done like in House.
The application of cutting corners, but the actual science and interplay of symptoms is accurate.
That's what they are saying. Sure House is scientifically accurate as far as the symptoms and diseases.
Scrubs is far more accurate, because that's what practicing medicine in a hospital can be like, and they show how medicine is actually practiced, as opposed to House's "Superdoc" approach.
That's just turning the argument into "Do you want realistic medical science" or "realistic day to day operations of a hospital".
I'm not going to argue over surveys and personal opinion. I'm in it for the science of disease, not how a hospital functions.
A fair and valid point.
I like that these shows give us, the audience, the ability to see into a world which we may not already get a chance to do so on a regular basis, from different viewing angles, while still managing to keep the stories interesting in their own way.
I liked both shows. Each was great in their own merit.
The medical conditions might be more realistic in House, but the process and behavior of people certainly aren't.
It's similar with programming on TV. If you look at Mr. Robot, all the hacking methods and computer jargon are really accurate, down to KDE vs. GNOME rivalry, but the plot is total fantasy and nobody behaves as real programmers do. On the other hand, Silicon Valley is more like scrubs - the software is made up, it's a comedy, but the story and people are 100% realistic (except better dressed, since it's still Hollywood).
For a long time I absolutely hated Zach Braff because he had an uncanny ability to have love interests that matched mine.
Sarah Chalke, Mandy Moore, Heather Graham, Elizabeth Banks, Tara Reid - basically a conveyor belt of women I was in love with as a teen.
I still remember all the specific scenes i would pause on my ipod video in my early teenage years when i was doing... Research
Elliot was hot!! I had a huge crush on her. I was always like "JD! You dumass!". I think this is a typical method to get viewers emotionally invested. Like Joey and Dawson in Dawson's creek. Probably a ton of these examples.
+1 to the Elliot crush club
Time to watch Rick and Morty!
You mean ole mole butt?
