What people are saying
I think they really listened to a lot of the fan reactions from Episode 1 of the revival, and everybody was asking, okay, J.D. and Elliot, tell us more about that. Why didn’t it work out, what happened, what went wrong?
We should've worked
I know, but we didn't
Maybe the fact that we can still be friends is our happy ending.
