You are both wrong. Scrubs is the finest piece of hospital-based TV ever. It's so obvious.

JLLM, ITA on House! As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I haveabsolutely fallen in love with the show since Christmas. And I must admit, since his acceptance speech for the Globes, I've developed a bit of a crush on Mr Laurie. When you combine that humor with his real-life accent, you just can't go wrong. Good to find someone outside chez LooksLikeMe who actually watches the show. Weird how Laurie has become an unlikely sex symbol. He's a bit of a depressive though, apparently. One wonders if the character has an effect: news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/4631772.stm |

I had to quit reading that article. It made me sad to wonder if he's playing himself and really not that good of an actor.
Fuzznuts - Scrubs is a damn good show too.

You are both wrong. Scrubs is the finest piece of hospital-based TV ever. It's so obvious. You're all wrong. St. Elsewhere is the bestest hospital-based television show ever. Especially if you compare it to the rest of the crap that was on at the same time. |

Does M*A*S*H qualify as "hospital-based?" I thought it was more "war based" (war based sit-coms, that puts M*A*S*H in a category with just Hogan's Heroes for competition, huh?).
Well, if M*A*S*H qualifies, then it gets my vote, too. Best sit-com ever.

Mobile Army Surgical Hospital...I'd say it counts. Granted it's not a traditional hospital, but it wasn't a traditional show.

It's weird that this is the second M*A*S*H conversation I've witnessed in as many days, with people waxing effusive about how it was the best sitcom ever. Will you guys be as shocked as they were when I admit that I've never seen a single episode?  Great theme song though... |

Hogan's Heroes wins "Most Un-PC Concept for a Show, EVER" hands down. It's hard to believe that there was ever a time when a premise like that was considered socially acceptable.
Great show, though.

I'd also say that while it begain as a sit com by it's 5th season (ie, when it got really good) it was more then that. A dramity if you will. They had some pretty heavy episodes, and there was usually a pretty serious message in there. Begining with the episode when Henry Blake gets killed it really got kicked up a notch.

I'll agree in "M*A*S*H" getting high kudo's from myself too but only up to maybe the first season or two when Winchester came aboard. The last few seasons IMO got a bit long in tooth with the comedy relying more & more on a barrage of puns than wit. Like another great, "All In The Family," I'd wish they would have bowed out while still in their prime.

Heres one “reality show” I’ll be skipping . don’t these folks realize their 15 minitues is long gone.
Long Island Lolita,’ Buttafuocos to reunite
Infamous trio agree to appear in TV reunion, report says
NEW YORK - More than a decade after 16-year-old Amy Fisher had a sexual relationship with a much-older car mechanic and shot his wife in the face, the one-time “Long Island Lolita” and Joey and Mary Jo Buttafuoco have agreed to appear together in a televised reunion.
All three have signed on for the appearance, which has yet to be sold to a network, television producer David Krieff told the New York Post for Monday editions.
“It’s time to just put it behind us,” Fisher, now 31, told the newspaper. “We played this all out in a public eye. It’d be interesting to let the public see the healing process at the end. They saw everything else — why not let them see the final product?”
Why oh why indeed.
Oh the other hand Skating with celebrities is becoming quite an addictive hoot.
I guess a skating background helps up the enjoyment factor for moi.

Goodness gracious, the powers that be just won't stop will they? That is quite possibly one of the worst ideas I've ever heard. I'd like to know who comes up w/ the ideas for such crap....
So, did anyone watch 24 last night?
