Let's just let the good things be good?

Could we at least get the original music in the reruns first? What about resyndicating it first?

I guess if the original show runner is doing it, maybe it won't be awful, but you can't expect the original magic to not be forced or tainted.

Counter argument. Season 9

what season 9.

oh, you mean that first and only season of the spinoff sequel that bombed spectacularly.

they need to ruin everything. You're not allowed to have good things any more.

Eh, you can't have good things anymore, but they'll let you rent them at a tenth the price (per month)

There's a reason remakes don't have a different title.

honestly, braff made this series. he was a huge part of the draw for me.. the self-deprecation.. the voice-overs. i cannot imagine this being any good without some of those braff-specific factors.

dont get me wrong, the rest of the cast really made this show great also. i hope they keep the same theme going but with them as a matured clinical staff

It sounds like Braff is ready to revisit the show for a season or two, per the article, but I also think most TV is lightning in a bottle. There's no formula for recapturing the magic, eve if you do put all the pieces back together.

Hear me out.

Donald Faison is the new Dr. Cox. Turk has gone through a lot and has come out as mean as the original.

He's tormenting the newbies because 'that's how I cam up.'
