A Unique Brew: Bill Lawrence’s New Series, Shrinking, Gives Me Flashbacks of Scrubs
Shrinking: Cannabis pairing review

The entertainment world is constantly evolving, giving us new things to discuss, enjoy, yet we manage to comeback to what we know and love. This time, we’re taking a look at an Apple TV series that’s been making quite a buzz lately, Shrinking.
Bill Lawrence, renowned for his work on “Scrubs,” has come up with a new masterpiece that feels all too familiar. The show does not shy away from being reminiscent of his previous work, and it’s clear that Lawrence’s signature touch is etched into every scene. It’s like seeing an old friend in a new place — comforting, nostalgic, and just a tad bit exciting.
The cast is led by none other than Harrison Ford, delivering a performance that teeters between an homage to Dr. Cox from Scrubs and something entirely his own. Then there’s Jason Segel, who’s become rather notorious for playing the “sad sack” who eventually has a come-up — a casting choice that, while somewhat predictable, works surprisingly well here.
The ensemble cast is a jigsaw puzzle that fits together seamlessly, each character complimenting the other in a manner that is reminiscent of the chemistry seen in “Scrubs”. It’s this dynamic that makes the series feel so familiar, and perhaps that’s the secret ingredient in its recipe for success.
This new series feels like the offspring of “Californication” and “Scrubs” — a unique blend of comedy and drama that keeps viewers on their toes. And, as with any good dramedy, the show is not without its hiccups. Some plot points feel repetitive, and it takes a while to fully tap into the established camaraderie among the characters. But these minor setbacks do little to dampen the overall enjoyment of the series.
Apple TV is known for its wholesome content, and this series is no exception. It maintains a consistent tone that falls in line with the platform’s reputation, offering viewers a warm, comforting watch.
Now, let’s talk about the perfect pairing for this series. Cannabis, in its many forms, is often paired with specific activities or experiences to enhance the overall enjoyment. For this series, an Indica Hybrid is the ideal companion. Indica strains are known for their relaxing properties, helping you ease out of your comfort zone at a slow pace. This pairs well with the show’s unexpected turns, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in its changing tones.
The Hybrid element adds a layer of balance. Much like the show, it switches between tones, complementing the comedic moments and providing a cushion for when things get real. With each twist and turn, the Indica Hybrid helps you stay grounded and in tune with the series’ emotional journey.
So, have you seen this series yet? The sight of Harrison Ford in a new TV show is both a delightful surprise and a tad cringe-worthy. However, one thing’s for sure — it’s definitely worth a watch, especially with an Indica Hybrid by your side.
