"You'll never guess what's been happening in triage. Apparently everyone’s a lesbian!" — Shortland Street Receptionist, 2011
There’s this thing that happens at my house on week nights when my housemate Sarah comes home from work.
Sarah: Oh it’s 6:30, Neighbours is on!
Me: Ergh, Neighbours. Back in New Zealand, where everything is awesome, Shortland Street is way cooler and better in every way than Neighbours.
Sarah: Shh, it’s starting!
[Silence for approximately 45 seconds.]
Me: Pfft, you call that drama? This one time, on Shortland Street, Donna and Rangi continued to have an affair even after they found out they were half-brother and sister; it was amazing! Oh, or this other time, a truck crashed into the hospital...
