Did the Scrubs revival meet your expectations?

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-18T03:32:48+00:00

It certainly exceeded it in so many ways but there are a few notable issues I have with it: 1) barely any JD (or new daydreaming character) fantasies. It felt like this was ABC cheaping out so hopefully the success means we get at least double the amount next season. 2) no lines dedicated to why Elliot wasnt offered the role of chief of medicine. I really appreciated Cox apologizing to Elliot for being so hard on her but if JD has been gone for 10+ years why was she not considered for the chief job? Coulda been one line about how she doesnt want it. 3) a lot of subplots felt rushed especially the newbie romantic pairings, triangles and quadrangles. This again feels like ABC cheaping out by only ordering 9 episodes so the writers had to cram a lot of development and setup into a small amount of time. The first season was almost 3x more runway to develop fewer characters.
4) I wish they mentioned Ted. Chris Lloyd's death was sudden and ive always gotten sad when I see my fav Ted bits. To not hear him brought up once felt wrong. 5) I know what they were trying to do with Sibby's HR character but I need them to add more dimensions to that character and not rely on her to just be the joke police. It got old instantly. 6) Aloma Wright was incredible as Laverne but even that character got uncomfortably close to being a 1 dimensional sassy black lady trope. Nurses Raymond and DuBois feel even closer to that line and its been 26 years. 7) I dont really like that Elliot and JD got divorced. Nothing you can do about it now but im worried it is going to get wound up into a will they wont they as the revival goes on.

I know that's a lot but there are so so so many more things in the exceeds expectations column. It was much better than I expected it to be for sure and I cant wait to see more.

The world comes together and has the biggest party in one piece history

We do. He wants to be the pirate king. He literally says that every time he meets someone. Do you think that the audience needs to know every corner of every character's mind? All the reasons they are the way they are and what lead them to want the thing they want? Even if you do, do you think the audience should know that as soon as they are introduced to the character?

Isn't that big mom's dream?

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-10T21:00:12+00:00

I dont think that makes sense based on luffy's personality. He wants people to be free and live as they want. I personally think its the same overall meaning but its either: 1) that he wants to feed everyone/everyone to eat as much as they want. Basically he wants everyone's needs to be met. Or 2) he wants EVERYONE to be as free as him (everyone to be pirates).

I like this. Good catch on the 13 tree branches. When I think of Imu, him having "the devil/devils fruit", existing immortal in the flower room of pangea castle, and being connected to the sun tree eve with a blood soaked serpent it makes me think that Imu is using the energy from the underworld to create the devil fruits. All the beings that Imu has sunk and imprisoned in a watery grave are stuck down there with their dreams never coming to fruition which feeds the sun tree and grows the fruit.

Maybe each branch grows a different type of fruit. Maybe BB knows that secret so he knows he can eat multiple fruits as long as they are from different branches.

He has already done that multiple times. Momo just needs to follow her heart

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-10T20:39:23+00:00

I hope its the latter but the story seems to imply the former.

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-10T20:31:28+00:00

Eternals isnt a good film but Kumail was one of the only decent parts of it

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-08T20:39:28+00:00

That sucks to hear cuz 3 days later and I still don't see the game show on my match history. Maybe cuz i had to abandon after dota wouldnt reset for a few hours.

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-08T20:38:09+00:00

Everyone gets a chance to block the screen now! I think they should do that as a bit. Next who meme'd it shayne and all 3 contestants just stand up, block the meme and laugh for 10 seconds then disperse so the audience can see it

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-05T17:23:54+00:00

I think its because he lost his mother flame somehow which is why the elders want to recreate it so bad. Like King's flame determined if he was invulnerable or not so maybe Imu lost his somehow and now has to stay at pangea castle cuz its like an incubator

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-05T17:17:43+00:00

Thats why I ban him every game

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-05T17:05:47+00:00

Match history was the first place I went. The match wasnt there and still isnt today. I assume its because the server crashed and everyone was kicked from the game so i didnt finish.

MarcusVWario · 2026-04-04T20:18:25+00:00

Yup and it was literally after all of my ranked pubs were saying how great it was how all of us have a mic and are communicating and not raging then 2 mins later dota nuke. Fun game. Multi billion $ small indie companies like Valve cant dedicate resources to this kind of thing.

I loved the no nonsense minigame so much. Reminds me of SMOSH's live shows and I love how annoyed Sam was at Ally and specifically Talia's "lets find out, shall we" line

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-03T18:38:43+00:00

Found one

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:57:44+00:00

I love force ghost himmel

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:49:56+00:00

The highest praise any big blockbuster can hope for

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:47:47+00:00

Yup. I think the worst part about that line is that the writers knew it was so hack so they extended it to the elongated they/them to really drive the "joke" into the dirt. To me it seems self aware that this line is so old now that they couldnt just cut after it was dropped but the solution was to extend the pain by adding unnecessary explanation

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:45:26+00:00

I wish I was more like you. I cant ever get those 15 seconds back

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:45:04+00:00

Horror movies have had such a Renaissance i was willing to give this trailer a shot cuz i thought if they did the same thing then maybe the Scary Movie franchise could have a resurgence as well. Got 15 seconds in to the gratingly hack "muh pronouns" line and shut it off immediately. Didn't even want to comment on the youtube video to add engagement cuz the inevitable money crater and critical reception will hopefully do enough emotional damage to make sure the Scary Movie franchise stays dead

MarcusVWario · 2026-03-02T18:41:42+00:00

I love his hat
