It’s an interesting concept but it wears out fast when you realize most of the people on the show would either need help with their mental health, or should simply not drive at all.
It just shows that we have a bad health care system when it comes to mental health, and that we are dependent on cars on top of that.
Like, they had multiple people with severe anxiety issues that thought they should absoluuuuuutely drive a car no matter how dangerous they were. And unfortunately it’s not like we could encourage those people to use the inexistant transit system where they lived.
So most of the seasons are the same with different people, eventually all returning to driving a car, even if some should definitely not.
And they called it ‘rehab’. Ugh. They should have realized how cringe and immoral it all is after the first few seasons, not 14!
Battlestar Galactica from the 00’s. It was written as a 3 season show but was padded out by another season to exploit its popularity. As a consequence, season 3 is not good.
I actually like the last season of Scrubs. I just think they introduced it wrong. They could have done it like Star Trek: The Next Generation and put a hard line between the old and new series. Or they could have done like Legends of Tomorrow and gradually replaced characters over time. Instead it was somewhere in the middle. It didn’t have a clean break so people justifiably expected more of what they already knew, and they didn’t change things gradually enough to acclimate fans.
Even so, I still got some good laughs out of it and liked the new characters.
What’s worse is that now I end up having it binged every now and then because my wife still likes even the later seasons. When you watch it like that, all the little issues show up more.
