A mass casualty event happened at the worst possible time, but it was a great way to introduce the medical drama’s new era. The medical cases were almost secondary to the character conflicts, and that’s how it has always been for Med. Hopefully, the rest of the season will be as strong as this opening.

The world’s marketing strategies for gendered fragrances have typically been influenced by “traditional” masculine notes and “traditional” feminine notes. Today more than ever, though, some of the best brands are abandoning that approach and instead focusing on genderless fragrances. At the end of the day, fragrance is subjective and marketing is marketing. Whatever you want to smell like—that’s what you should smell like. And if it happens to be coconut, you came to the right place. The best coconut perfume offerings shouldn’t smack you in the face with their coconut-ness.

So it was surprising when the same director returned twelve years later with what is essentially a remake of a rather divisive movie. The plot is, more or less, the same this time around, but a few creative changes make this new version of Amber Alert more watchable. Like in the original movie, this new story happens over the course of one night. And the first significant difference between the two versions — apart from…
