It was very funny how the Doc pumped brain stem cells out of one patient's ear and then pumped them into another patient's ear.😅 Okay then…
In general, regarding the series: I didn't really like the transition between seasons from the horror genre in the spirit of the Twilight Zone to the comedy of the absurd. I think that was one of the reasons for the drop in ratings and the closure. The second one is the abuse of the "here the hero wakes up" feature 8 times per episode with intervals of 3-5 minutes. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this and many previous episodes like it, and I will miss the Springwood stories before Nancy a little.
