This week inside The Bubble, we’re talking about the remake era — and whether we’ve officially reached saturation.
We kick off our 3-episode trial of Fox’s Best Medicine, a small-town medical drama based on the British series Doc Martin, and share our first impressions. Did it hook us? Does it feel fresh? Or are we watching another case of copy-paste television?
From proven reboot successes to the “why did this exist?” remakes, we play a round of Keep It or Leave It and debate whether reboots are necessary… or just safe bets in a risk-averse TV landscape.
Plus:
• Bubble Rising — shows that are quietly impressing us
• Essential Black History Month TV picks
• And our energy check going into Episode 2 of the trial
Is originality on the bubble? Let’s discuss.
