You've got your love online; you think you're doing fine, but you're just plugged into the wall

I ha nearly forgotten how good it was to watch a tv show. Then, I decided to watch Scrubs online at abc.com while I reviewed some information for a quiz. 4 episodes have aired so far this season and I watched each and every one. I actually accomplished work while I did this.

The rave here is two-fold. Thank you ABC for putting all four episodes online. I will gladly watch them legally with your commercials if they stream that quickly and are available. I tried the same with House, MD on Fox and was sadly disappointed.

The big rave is to "Scrubs". Sure it is getting a little cliche with J.D. and Elliot, but we'll see where it goes from here. At least they made them take an unexpected route that wasn't ridiculous like some shows (*cough* Friends *cough*). It is still quirky as ever and I love the amount of comedy they get out of their peripheral characters. Lines/subplots involving the romantic interludes of "Jo" and Dr. Mickhead (not together) were hysterical. Well, really anything involving Jo was ridiculously awesome.

On top of all else, it was a nice way to recharge my brains while doing work. In the past I would have been lost in the show and horribly unproductive. Instead, I was able to manage quite well and it was just the distraction I needed while I worked to make me more productive in the long run.

Oh, the music on Scrubs is still amazing.

I feel like a 13 year-old girl fawning over High School Musical. Oh well, better than being mid-30s male who fawns over High School Musical. Not that I know anyone like that.
