How old is Tru supposed to be? mid twenties? early twenties? I mean I know she applies to med school, but you can do that fresh out of college or way out of college I'd imagine



Tru is mid twenties..23 or 24. Applies for med school directly after college (although in the pilot she graduates but is doing a summer internship which gets pulled. Within the next few eps she's suppose to take the MCATs...which if you were really going directly to Med school she would've already done, etc. Just one of the massive plot holes in Tru Calling...however if you don't focus on them it really was an interesting show.

I personally wouldn't buy it. Do you have Netflix? That's how I watched (and watch all the others series that I'm sad to have missed...Sliders is next...saw quite a bit of that when it first came out, but missed a whole lot, too)

Hahaaa...

The rest of the world looks like troll in comparison to her. If I was a guy, I wouldn't want to be the one standing next to her looking all cro-magnon. ;)

Yeah my brother in law is just starting his residency ( meaning he's done 4 years of college, 4 years of med school, and took 18 months off school for personal stuff) and he's 27. So if she's 23-24 she either took a load of time off or she's dumb as a post

Well, I think she graduated at 22 (normal), but the whole MCAT timing was off because they made it seem like she'd be starting Med school the next fall but you don't take the MCATs the a month before you are IN Med school. So. I think the 23 is from the second season..supposedly a year later.

If you were an available guy you'd be more than happy to be the one standing next to her. Trust me.

LOL Zeek.... just remember it's cute when you smile and go all goofy... less cute when you follow her through the crowd eerily stroking her shirt sleeve

I remember seeing the MCAT episode. Why would you wait so long between graduating and med school? (though the whole internship thing might explain that). Interesting.

No, I don't have netflix :\ we tend to just buy the shows/movies we're interested in, lol.

You guys are creepy. :D

FLTx: I used to buy a lot of stuff and then get it home and was like "WTF is this waste of money?" I joined the $8.99 Netflix (1 disc out at a time, unlimited online viewing) precisely because I was tired of spending money on stuff I wouldn't waste my $$ on after having seen what it actually was. It is soooo much cheaper than buying or renting series. I've been able to catch up on episodes of season I missed (missed first few eps of Chuck S1 so I caught up there) and see shows I wasn't sure about (got disc 1, S1 of How I Met Your Mother, watched it, sent it back, cancelled the rest of the season........






and then when out and bought S1-3. (space for dramatic effect b/c I know there are some HIMYM fans on this site )

I've also watched some really cool stuff with their instant viewing: documentaries and such that I would never have rented, etc. I have my computer hooked up to my TV so it's just like watching on it.

'Course I'm also an avid hulu.com user. These days it's pretty silly, IMO to pay for cable/DVR and internet when you can watch almost anything you want online and do it on your own time. (and Pooh on CBS for using TV.com or whatever it is instead of hulu.)

*please note: This is not a paid advertisement for Netflix or hulu.com. Just that Rugbug was warm fuzzy feelings for both after years of no TV.
