B Positive Gets Revamped

Almost nothing surprises me – the wall coming down, the Trump presidency, even Tickle Me Elmo.  But I am completely surprised by B Positive.  If you haven’t been watching – and ratings would indicate that you’re not – it’s a mediocre sitcom with some very talented actors, decent writing, and a crappy theme song accompanied by a really creepy video montage in the style of Monty Python.  In season one, the male lead needed a kidney transplant and was surrounded by dialysis patients and a female lead as his donor.  The season ended with him surviving his transplant surgery.  The end, right?  In season two, his donor (who he’s secretly in love with) comes into millions of dollars, buys a retirement home, and hires the sassy gay dialysis nurse – played by the delicious Darryl Stephens.  The home is populated by such talented oldsters as Linda Lavin, Ben Vereen, Hector Elizondo, and a scene-stealing Jane Seymour.  If I were to describe B Positive now, I’d call it a mediocre show with some very talented actors, decent writing, and a crappy theme song accompanied by a ridiculous video montage in the style of Moulin Rouge.  I don’t know if it’s better or worse – but kudos for the flip.
