I chose to write about the TV show [Scrubs] for my second journal entry. I picked this show because it is easily my favorite show on TV. I don't necessarily watch TV too often but when I do I would rather watch Scrubs than any other show. I picked this show mostly because it's funny (why else would someone pick a comedy?), but I also chose this show because I feel like I have a special connection with it. Not that I have a weird obsession with any of the characters or the real people, it is just that the humor fits me so well. Every joke that the characters make I find extremely funny. I feel that if I were to sit down and be as brilliant as the writers are for this show, I think I would write this kind of sitcom. It starts off perfectly, but then always ends with a message. Also, the show isn't your typical sitcom, even making fun of its own uniqueness, like JD making fun of someone else for an "inner monologue", while that is basically how the show progresses. While not trying to go off topic, this show is influential in the way of my humor. Since this sitcom profiles me exactly, I feel that some of my humor is almost copied (sometimes) from scrubs. Now, its not like I'm a copycat, just that it is human nature. It is almost comparable to how a young child looks up to his or her idol. What does the child do when he or she admires the idol. The child acts like the idol does, sometimes too much. Now I'm not saying I'm like that, but I do find myself comparing reality to the show, because in my head, anything can be compared to an episode of scrubs. Chances are, they've done it. If you haven't seen this show, then I highly recommend it. The only way that someone wouldn't like this show is if they only saw it once; I was the same way. However, its just like watching someone play a game you've never seen before. If you don't know whats going on, chances are you aren't going to be too fond of it. Give the show a chance, though. You'll be glad you did.
