So I think I have the flu, not bird flu or swine flu, just the regular flu. So before I slip in to a Robitussin induced slumber, I’m going to attempt to make this “Who Remembers” as coherent as possible. (if not possible some one on here will edit the shit out of this thing Ed. Note: I just edited the shit out of this thing.) Side note: mix tussin and grape juice together and you will understand the thought process of Lil’ Wayne. True story.

Since current TV sucks, God, or someone from Stanford college, created HULU.com so we can watch classic TV on the internet. The joy that HULU brings to my life is unspeakable.

I wanted to see if the hype of HULU “having almost anything” was, in fact, true. I did a search for Doogie Howser, M.D thinking “its Doogie Howser who gives a shit about Doogie.”

To my surprise all 4 seasons of Doogie Howser, M.D are available. I am currently half way thru season 3. All 4 seasons have Doogie dealing with teen angst, sex, rebellion, and individuality coupled with the responsibly of saving peoples lives.

Now, The Cosby Show season two theme song for me might the the best TV theme song of all time, but Doogie Howser, M.D is a close second. It sounded like porn and 8 bit had a musical child.

Here are some facts about the program and the series as a whole:
Doogie Howser, M.D. is a television comedy-drama that ran four seasons totaling 97 episodes. Doogie is a child prodigy, graduated from Princeton University at age 10, and finished medical school four years later. At age 14, He was the youngest licensed doctor in the country. The series begins on Howser’s 16th birthday.

Doogie’s best friend is the italian stereotype Vinnie Delpino. Young Doogs also  has a on again off again girlfriend, Wanda Plenn (side note Wanda Plenn straight P in the V), and his mom is a cougar. She would get it.

Also, I believe Doogie invented of the blog. At the end of every episode young Doogs keeps a diary on his computer.

What I enjoy about Doogie Howser is that it hits all the notes you want a show to hit, and keeps it light, but not too light.

    OMG! I was JUST talking about Doogie yesterday!!! Great Post!
    You see the family guy where Meg/Stewie make fun of the whole Doogie Diary thing? I think it was the ep where Meg gets them put on a reality show and then they replace her.
