I'm thinking of watching 'Halt and Catch Fire', but I'm also taking a hardware & OS course right now, and I was worried that it might teach me some wrong stuff. I might wait till after the final to watch it.

Scrubs is well known to be the only really accurate depiction of American hospitals. Mostly because it's the only show where nurses even exist.

I'm going through residency right now and every day I experience a different episode from Scrubs. It's scary how accurate it can be, even for how long it's been since it came out
