I really like Clare and being mid 30's/single myself, I can relate a lot to her. I hope they get late 30's/early 40's men for her. I hope it's a good season, back to the basics like Ashley H's season and they have good locations! Benoit was 33, which was at least closer in age than a late 20 year old. Like another poster said, Clare only needs 1 JP Rosenbaum or Chris Seigfried. JP i think is one of the oldest male winners of the show - he was 34 when it aired in 2012. He's now 43 and still looks almost exactly the same. 🙂

I'm a Project Manager for a large, comprehensive cancer center in the US. They actually do have placebo arms. Not always, but a lot of them do, once they get into Phase 2/3. They're used if there isn't a standard treatment established to give to a patient. Or, more recently a lot of multi drug trials/multi modality trials will have placebo arms to compare more than 1 treatment, against each other or against what standard treatment is already FDA approved. Language is typically: 'Pt will get Drug 1 & Drug 2, but for Drug 3, they will be randomized to Drug 3 or placebo.' OR 'Pt will be randomized to Standard Treatment or Drug 1 or Drug 1/Placebo.

NEW GIRL. It's a great rewatch. Seasons 1-3 are good, Season 2 is great and the rest are good (especially to see Nick, Winston & Schmidt's progression). Jake Johnson also was bartender in New Girl, so the type casting here is interesting. His chemistry with Zooey Deschanel was always very good & I like seeing him in a similar friend/SO role. The changes to Grey have been great so far & I hope it gives Jake Johnson some more dimension to work with. HIMYM is fantastic. No one beats Robin Scherbatsky, if you want snark and being able to go toe to toe with NPH.
