Sometimes they have lightning in a bottle with the original and then the sequel/reboot just feels like a pale imitation wearing your beloved IP’s skin.
It’s tragic that he never got to play a scientist who could smell crime.

It was probably hard to compete with other shows that had rapid-fire jokes and shorter time to pay off. Building up complex characters and creative situations takes a little more time and probably loses eyeballs.

I also wonder what they could’ve changed.
Am I secretly Dutch?
If they ever invent a pill that I could take for perfect nutrition instead of food, I’d happily do it.

Chess isn’t a physical sport, and trans players shouldn’t be forced to make a “damned if you do/don’t” choice when determining which league is the right one for them to participate in.

Yeah, hospitals will schedule around holidays. You can see Xmas, new years, 4th of July, Halloween, and Thanksgiving (unlabeled). I assume those are the only holidays that would realistically keep a doctor away from the hospital.
