Hollywood constantly tryina cash in on nostalgia porn and it never works
No, it actually works VERY OFTEN. See: The financial success of the always garbage live action disney remakes.
If you’d have read Bill Lawrence’s interview on the subject, you’d know that’s this isn’t about money. And I’d trust the guy who created Ted Lasso and shrinking to do what it takes to make this worth watching.
And Scrubs. The original show itself. He created it. He's not some rando taking over.
But honestly, Bill Lawrence has single-handedly built up the comedydrama side of Apple TV+. Ted Lasso, Shrinking, Bad Monkey... All great shows. And I don't even care about football normally.
I'll take this one with a grain of salt instead of the usual salt mountain. It's still a reboot. But it looks like they're also getting at least some of the other cast members back too. Mostly I'm hoping for Cox and Kelso. Carla and Janitor are apparently semi-confirmed? And I think Jordan is more or less confirmed considering the actress is literally married to Bill Lawrence and actively takes part in his projects.
Hadn’t checked out the Apple shows yet but also didn’t know they were Bill Lawrence; that bumps them up the list some
He also co-created Spin City.
Exactly. That’s my point. He created these shows. And so many people have zero faith that he’d create a quality reboot.
Carla has a scheduling conflict with another show, but I think they were trying to work something out.
the only thing I have heard about Ted Lasso is that it is the most annoying show of the past 5 years
Well now you've also heard: I thought it an unapologetically heartfelt show, and I really enjoyed it despite expecting saccharine bullshit. It didn't hold the quality all three seasons, but that's not because it's bad, but rather because the first season (and even the second,) is so good. I enjoyed it completely. But hey, it's not for everyone.
No, that’s not all you heard about it and we both know it. You just like stirring the pot with edgy rhetoric.
you think thats edgy? ill show you edgy! I think JD from Scrubs is annoying!
Sometimes the cash in works, Top Gun for example, and that is why they keep trying, ignoring all the times it doesn't work.
it never works on you and me maybe, but it seems like the normies eat that shit up
It makes me feel like I'm better than them. which I'm aware seems to be a character flaw, but not one I care about, I guess! enjoy your shitty fifth superhero movie reboot or whatever
