So every 3-4 years another one of these movies is pumped out. What's the deal with this? It's a VERY specific idea for a "genre". I'm really sick of people switching bodies due to some tiki curse or whatever only to find out just how "hard" the other person has it.
Just once I'd like the twist ending to be that only ONE of them learns that lesson, the other person actually WAS completely right about their life being harder than the first person (let's say a citizen of Somalia changing places with a busy American business man). No seriously, if another medical drama tries to tell me "everyone has problems" as though all problems are equal and the lesson is apparently "suck it up and stop complaining"...

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
