The future sure looks grim

Warning: Spoilers
So the scenes with 'Dr. Luna' have to be 30 years into the future AND this is what the future looks like? All the cars on the street are from now (no hover cars, delivery robots, police drones) and the hospital and tech all looks the same. So, in 30 years health care will still be a huge mess? Wonderful.

Wish this show had ended when the pandemic hit but it didn't - maybe after the low rated Roe V Wade episode and many of the other progressive themed failures they felt they needed to pull the plug on this disaster.

The show was SO predictable (from the start), contrived, dangerously wrong medically, overly maudlin, and often (almost) unbearable to watch. My wife watched it because of the train wreck effect.

I would often come in and out of the room as she plowed through the episodes, were I would predict - oh that one is a lesbian, that one will hook up with that one and so on then one of them will have to leave for (St.) Elsewhere. She often 'hated' when I was right.

This was no ER, Saint Elsewhere or Chicago Hope. Often we would watch Scrubs just to cleanse ourselves of the crap writing in NA.

Anyway - I can't tell you how happy I was when this finally ended and how cathartic writing this stupid review has been.

Don't get me started.
