I watch your show. I sometimes like your show. But I’m writing this letter to tell you that you can do better. Much, much better.
Allow me to elaborate.
It seems like the writers are playing cliché bingo. I think you could be much more original. Will the network not allow it?
In the petty category, it drives me crazy that you doctors have abundant free time. Even the Scrubs doctors worked harder. Can doctors really just cancel an afternoon of appointments like that?
I didn’t even know male doctors could outnumber female doctors 3:1 at an OB/GYN clinic of young doctors. Is that allowed? Congrats on that extra pop of reality. I’m sure there are also lots of male midwives.
All of this begs me to wonder – to which particular level of ridiculousness are you aiming? Are you set in la la land?
Sometimes I think you’re aiming to really go “out there” and I recommend you go out there. Go. Imagine 30 Rock and Seinfeld. They are out there but it’s okay… there’s an alternate reality out there. And it can work. Instead, your mixing of the ridiculous with the cliché is rant-inducing.
In all fairness and gratitude you do tend to have that one, funny, redeemable line. Or moment. Or whatever. Per episode. But unfortunately the hits aren't keeping up with the misses. Take Danny doctor having a one-on-one with the socially awkward receptionist to assure her she’s pretty? Are you kidding me?
I think you can do much, much better.
Sincerely,
Concerned fan
PS - Please don't tell me you know all this and don't care because CASH, yo!
