I remember watching Scrubs with my roommate from when I was in college living in Riverside. She was laughing a lot, almost every ten seconds it seemed, and I don't think I even laughed once. I talked to my other roommate about it. (I had two roommates at the time.) She told me, I don't think that show is funny either, she does have a strange sense of humor.
Scrubs was cancelled from NBC, and I was really surprised to find it back on the air on ABC. I got roped into watching a few episodes because of someone I live with-- who thinks it oh so funny. (I wouldn't watch a lot of things if it wasn't for other people wanting to see it.)
Surprisingly, in a good way, Scrubs on ABC is very funny. Scrubs on NBC, wa. But the new Scrubs is delightful. I don't like the word delightful, and I am using it. Scrubs is now that good. Maybe, I have changed, or my humor has changed, but I really think its Scrubs that has changed. I think the show will end up lasting on ABC for awhile.
It's humor is so creative, and the characters are so goofy, and I can really believe them as goofy friends that hang out with each other. The characters come together to portray a story, and a plot, and it seems to harmonize and mix really well with a lot of the humor thrown into it. I am now excited to get stuck watching Scrubs now, instead of the old emotion it would get out of me....akin to watching a documentary on toothpaste or something.

Gran Torino with Clint Eastwood
I think that Clint Eastwood was really hot when he was younger. I watched the Good, Bad and the Ugly a bunch of times mainly for this reason, oh and I liked the movie too.
I didn't like Million Dollar Baby, even though it received really rave reviews by the critics and won a lot of awards. I had a lot to say about the movie that was negative. Needless to say, a part of me was weary of seeing this movie.
I read the description of it on yahoo movies, and the critics made is seem like a really serious, soul sucking, 4 hour drama that will weigh you down, full of controversy and subjects for debate to even further weary the mind.
What the critics on yahoo movies failed to portray about Gran Torino, was that it was hilarious!!!! I laughed the whole time. No soul sucking involved. I know, it does not seem like a comedy, and it's really not, but the movie was very funny and very serious at the same time. Few movies can pull that stunt off. In a way, the movie was just like real life. Real life has a lot of drama, but people stop to joke and make fun with each other too, and just live their life.
This movie was done really well. It was realistic, and every scene was like a fine crafted piece of art work. This movie is not a movie I will forget. Most movies, I forget the characters, what happened, where it happened. But, I will remember every scene and and character of Gran Torino. It was so cool. I replayed a lot of the movie in my head, something about it just sticks in my mind. There is some violence, and some bad language, that didn't bother me too much though. I was mainly replaying the conversations that took place.
I read a lot of reviews before seeing the movie to make sure it would be okay for me to watch. I thought it was on the level, but others may not think so. It portrays racism, but not in a serious way. I was not offended, maybe I should have been. The movie has a lot of bad language too.
Clint Eastwood was really good in this movie. He did an excellent job acting, and directing. I loved the ending to this movie too. I think the movie was almost perfect. The only thing about the movie that troubled me is believing that Tao's cousin would be that mean over nothing. It was a little far fetched for me. But, I hear stuff on the news that says someone got murdered for a scooter, so you never really know with some people. I thought that Clint's immediate family also seemed a bit stereotypical, as if they are not real people. But, his family was only in a few scenes of the movie, and I think they were supposed to not seem real, because he was not close to his family. I think that this is a great movie, that entertained me a lot.
