Get out of my head Cinemaphile. I'm on a rewatch. I'm on S6 and you can tell most of the cast is tuning it in and are sick of it already. The entire JD's gf getting pregnant is such a lame storyline.
Started a rewatch myself the other weekm S1 is kino
Elliot was so fricking cute in S1.
There's no such thing as a sitcom that survives its original premise and quality past 5 seasons. 4 seasons, usually.
But she's sexy so I give it a pass
Very gay show
American health care system seems fricking crazy.

>have a job
>pay $100 a month
>literally no problem
It's only a problem if you're a worthless moron that constantly gets injured/does stupid shit and requires way more healthcare than a sane, smart individual. Even then, thanks to Reagan, we have national law that no matter what you will be prevented from dying if you actually need it regardless of your worthless asses' ability to pay.
>literally no problem
My bad. I guess watching too much Grey's Anatomy and Scrubs made me believe as such. By the way I have been paying 1500 € a month for the past 20 years and never had to go to a hospital. I'm basically paying for other people's treatments.

>By the way I have been paying 1500 € a month for the past 20 years
Let me guess, you're:

>moronic
Here's my real numbers. I pay $98/month premium for my insurance. It has $1000 deductible and a $3500 maximum annual out of pocket. This means that I pay the first $1000 of whatever happens (preventative screenings, checkups, and vaxxes are free tho), then 20% of the cost up to $3500, then after that I pay nothing until the next calendar year.
Does that sound horrible, financially ruinous, and evil to you? It's a pretty fricking good deal in my opinion and MORE than fair. And this is *after* Obamacare fricked everything up and drove up everyone's costs to subsidize the bottomfeeders. All plans are mandated to cover everything now. Mental health, drug addiction, and medical problems. You used to be able to buy plans that just covered medical that were like $20 a month but that's evil so King Black person ruined that.
>I pay the first $1000 of whatever happens
>then 20% of the cost up to $3500
Fricking mental that you think this is normal, especially when you're already paying monthly.
That person's insurance sounds pretty good. I don't understand why non-americans are confused by the payments though. You realize your taxes pay for your insurance? Instead of Americans having their medical insurance paid by their taxes, its paid out of pocket. This also allows people to get worse or better insurance depending on what they need.
most people in other countries pay 50-100 a month then pay 0-20% of the bill at most, no bullshit deductible. The deductible discourages people from going to the hospital and what's the point of paying monthly if you still have to pay $1000 upfront.
>This also allows people to get worse or better insurance depending on what they need.
Assuming your employer offers worse or better plans, of course.
>You realize your taxes pay for your insurance?
Yeah, I pay an unavoidable percentage of my salary every month.
For that I can go to the doctors for literally anything and never have to pay a cent unless I want non-essential surgery like plastic surgery or supremely rare (and expensive) experimental treatment that's only provided by foreign specialists.
Reminder that Obamacare was literally Reagan's dream vision for healthcare in the 1980s.
Obama and the Heritage Foundation both said so themselves iirc.
>Reminder that Obamacare was literally Reagan's dream vision for healthcare in the 1980s.
Cool. Good thing I already said I think Reagan's a homosexual israelite for EMTALA and requiring hospitals to treat everyone who comes to the ER no matter how stupid the reason is. The fact that he has another stupid opinion 6 feet under can just be added to the list.
The dumbest part of the taxes argument is that if employers disn't each have to set up their own welfare system and subsidize health insurance for their employees, that cost would more than cover the extra taxes Americans would have to pay.
>governments are efficient with your tax money, just give it to them
The sad part is you really believe that.
>Insurance companies are efficient with your money. Just give it to them.
>create a regulatory environment that strangles the insurance-premium healthcare delivery model
>sad. more regulation will solve this
If I want to buy a health plan that just covers broken bones and cancer, why not let me? Companies can't innovate and they can't provide products customers want because the government has made it so only a single plan "everything" is legal and the only things they can tweak are stupid numbers like coinsurance and deductible.
I don't want more regulation of insurance companies. I want to abolish those parasites and string up their executives and I want employers to give me the money they give to health insurers on my behalf so that this ridiculous industry stops siphoning off my compensation.
>>sad. more regulation will solve this
It works in literally every other modern country tho.
Why are you convinced America is special and that it won't work here?
I guess the main difference is that I don't have to calculate anything. I know that a portion of my wage goes to health insurance and that's it. I don't have to worry about any major payments if I ever land in the hospital.
My mom was in intensive care because of her alcohol ridden liver for a month and we paid zero. I'm guessing that I'd still pay some insurance israelite major shekels if I was living in the US.
Based stupid as frick bootlicker.
In Japan I paid less and got more coverage.
everything is fricking bloated. An MRI costs like $1000 in America, it was $50 there. I got an appointment, IV, and ibuprofen for $15.
The problem isn't tons of people who don't work to get health care, it's giant insurance companies bloating the system. My dad is a doctor and someone's entire job in his office was to call insurance company, get billing codes, submit claims, appeal rejected claims, etc. It was literally a full time job. THAT'S what you're fricking paying for. Even if ambulances did credit checks and left poors in the middle of the road after car crashes, everything would still be expensive.
I was in the hospital for a month in Japan, with my own private room, and all my care, including food, cost a little over $3,000. I got the bill as I left from a literal cash register, no 3 bills 6 months later from some random department, everything together all at once.
>someone's entire job in his office was to call insurance company, get billing codes, submit claims, appeal rejected claims, etc. It was literally a full time job. THAT'S what you're fricking paying for.
And Black personCare made that worse ten fold. I work in healthcare, I saw before and after. The discharge packet before Black personCare was 3 pages. Now it's 26 pages.
Yes healthcare was free and covered everything and perfect in america before obama ruined it
thanks non-doctor
>having a conversation about ACA worsening the paperwork burden and doing nothing helpful
>yeah bro obama really made you mad huh he made you pay for healthcare
Thought you were being serious and having a conversation. Enjoy Japan, hope you don't come back.
>Thought you were being serious and having a conversation.
I knew you weren't since you ignored everything else I said and just ranted about some packet at work.
Did Obama make MRIs $1000 in america and $50 in other countries?
I had a doctor tell me he once flew to China to get an MRI because it was cheaper than getting one in the USA.
Americans just like to pay more.
>Paying for the vax
He wasn't talking about Obamacare prices. He was talking about paperwork lad. You're quite actually strawmanning.
Paperwork is only a problem because it leads to price increases.
What? No. It makes more work and causes a shit ton of backlogs and frick ups. Price increase is a side effect, potentially.
But I was talking about prices, and he responded with paperwork. Why doesn't he respond to what I said?
also this
I was agreeing with you and brought up the paperwork issue, and because you are apparently so dense, yet within that density there are zero neurons working to comprehend the causal link between the enormous increase in required filings and paperwork and cost of doing business without it being directly told to you, you instead came back and started insulting me with fantasy scenarios such as me claiming healthcare was a fairytale before the ACA. You're a fricking moron and you're either pretending to be moronic to not understand simple concepts or just actually the type of 80IQ ape that believes he'll still get his private room and nurse in an NHS-style takeover of American healthcare. In reality hospitals will return to infirmary ward style setups and you'll be lucky to see a nurse once a day, let a lone a physician face to face in your entire stay. Now blabber on, I will not reply to you any further.
Japan doesn't have those kinds of infirmary wards and their healthcare outcomes are better. Why do you defend paying more for less, pay piggy?
>But I was talking about prices, and he responded with paperwork. Why doesn't he respond to what I said?
Learn to read. He never commented on the paperwork costs getting worse; just the paperwork.
You are not as bright as you think you are.
>>But I was talking about prices, and he responded with paperwork. Why doesn't he respond to what I said?
>Does that sound horrible, financially ruinous, and evil to you?
Yes.
There's literally no reason for a White person not to want free healthcare like American and nigs defacto have
I pay $40, a month, my deductible is $6350, my coinsurance is 20%, and my out of pocket maximum is $10500 in-network. I also lose my insurance if I lose my job.
okay but if you get a disease/conditions that needs actual machines/special treatment you're going to get fricked
I remember reading something about how the show was filmed in a hospital that closed because it wasn't profitable, but they'd still have people coming into the building with bullet wounds or whatever and they'd have to turn them away.
I can't imagine something so stupid happening in my eurocountry.
Every word of that anecdote is insane and yet I completely believe it.
I know they filmed in an old hospital that closed. I don't know about the rest of that story but typically dumb homosexuals who get shot would do something stupid like that so maybe it's true.
>typically dumb homosexuals who get shot would do something stupid like driving to a building that says hospital and has ambulances parked outside
Most usually in that area its Hispanic gangbangers who roll up to the ED bay, open the door, kick out the shot spic/Black person and roll off. You know, the ones most deserving of healthcare.
That isn't even close to being true moron lmao. I lived in that area and nothing like that happened.
I also lived in that area and saw people going there with bullet wounds all the time.
They mentioned that in a behind the scenes video.
I'm American and have never paid for healthcare. When I was poor it was completely free. When I graduated I got a job and it was provided by my career.
You don't have copays, a deductible, or co-insurance?
Super israeli but it has some moments. Kelso and Cox and Janitor are much more interesting characters than everyone else
>Kelso
ahead of its time
I had to become older to really appreciate Kelso. Also thought that Janitor was unnecessarily mean to JD when I was young. Now I see it as slightly exaggerated workplace banter.
Should have ended after season 1. Soon as they became residents is when Zach Braff thought he was a comedian.
S2 is the best season though pleb
>only season one was good, only the side characters were good, and I don't like israelites
/tv/s review of every tv show in the history of visual media
JD's character was forced to become the gay comic relief because of the test audience didn't like him / didn't find S1 JD relatable
Braff didn't like the change but accepted it, then ended up hating the character.
I watch for she
I jerk offd to this at least 10 times when I was 16.
>t. 33 year old
her face is obscure
One of the worst television comedies ever made. Absolute cancer
This is a thread about Scrubs, not your poor ass medical cover
Where can I watch the blackface episodes that got pulled
Download the show brainlet
Ruined by streaming platforms because they edit out music for licencing reasons. Not even the old DVDs have all the original music apparently.
Can't decide between S2 or S6 Elliott
For me its S3 turbo bawd
i like turboprostitute elliott but also the aftermath trying-to-reform good girl elliott. can't decide
>watch webm
>"the editing is way too abrubt and fast paced for any emotional impact"
>watch vid
>"... goddamn..."
A good friend of mine loved this show. He's part black which was a novelty where we grew up so I guess he related to the interracial bromance depicted in the show.
He also came out as gay in his 30s which was interesting. We always assumed he didn't have luck with the ladies because he was fat. Really charming guy otherwise and even had a job as a tv reporter at a local station.
What I'm trying to say is, Scrubs is a show for homosexuals. And if you're not a homosexual you'll turn into one if you watch it.
I loved the show and watched the show several times over, but I watched a handful of eps last year and was near shocked at how little I cared for it.
It's by no means a bad show, but despite how "soulful" I know it was (behind the scenes at least) I just felt really weird watching it.
Can't really put my finger on what it was exactly, but it felt like watching a serious parody of a parody of a serious show.
I just noticed how casual the troony jokes were. Even normies saw them as a fringe group of exotic weirdos at best and circus freaks in general. I guess most people still see them that way but you surely can't put it on TV
It always starts with comedy but ends up enforced through terror
The public didn't change. A few dozen people at the top of media decided to enforce a change with the help of several thousand golems on places like twitter that coordinate doxxing campaigns by the hundreds to make sure anyone who sticks out enough has their careers, licenses, and financial livelihoods destroyed.
This shit came on all the time after school and I despised it but still watched it because there was nothing else to watch or do. All of the characters were annoying as frick and when they put in sentimental shit it got on my nerves even more. Back then I HATED when sitcoms tried to tug on the heartstrings.
I might give it another try to see I'll like it more in maturity but I doubt it.
It was a different time
this is unironically good natured fun, we lost this in the writers room somewhere along the way
its fascinating we live in a 95 year old hyper-christian grandmother from the late 1980s utopia of censorship, except the Left is the wing who achieved it
i hate to be the enlightened centrist here, but it really is a pandoras box thing for both the left and the right. its been opened and now both are insufferable when it comes to culture. the right these days is absolutely just as schizophrenic as the left.
i mean just look at that cheesey twisted metal thing with sweet tooth and anthony mackey. in the 90s, nobody would have batted an eye. but when sweettooth slams the black guy against the wall, its all "THAT BUCK LOOKIN ZESTY", and if it were reversed, they'd say its israeli propaganda. the right is just as scrambled as the left rn identity politics-wise lol
You have a link to prominent republicans with net worths >$10k saying 'buck' memes in interviews for papers or the MSM or are you confusing control of a cultural zeitgeist with shitposting on twitter and Cinemaphile again? Because I can provide 27 active links of prominent liberals applauding and pushing for censorship under the guise of DEI
Uhuh, so which sitcom is making troony and homosexual jokes like Scrubs? Link me, I'm looking for a good show.
>its only the left that wants to censor things
lol
>so which sitcom is making troony and homosexual jokes like Scrubs?
South Park and Family Guy mostly do it these days.
I think most others shows have realised there aren't any new jokes to be told about homosexuals.
>we live in a 95 year old hyper-christian grandmother from the late 1980s utopia of censorship
I don't know if you watch much TV these days but you can practically say or show anything on TV nowadays.
You wouldn't get as many explicitly violent sex scenes, torture scenes, rape scenes, BDSM scenes, murder scenes etc on screens 20 years ago and that was unironically a good thing.
>prebogged jordan
i'm cummin lads
it was cringe then, i can’t even imagine watching it now.
pathetic boring show for pathetic boring people
I haven't revisited the show in over a decade
but I remember thinking the first 3 seasons were actually pretty good, but then it became clear everyone had just settled into their roles and it all became a bit mechanical
I never made it as far as when the cast was replaced, I dropped it sometime in s5
Few shows are more consistent with their quality than scrubs
Elliot from Scrubs is ugly and I feel like there is a coordinated plan by everyone tin the world o gaslight me into thinking she is attractive
