What do you think of Scrubs?

Brilliant show. SOme of the best comedy on television and balanced out with equal amounts of drama.

Amazing how they could go from making the inevitable The Todd dirty joke to some of those chilling and good bump worthy scenes at the end of episodes.

Dont know what I think about it returning without Zach Braff or with him only in 6 of the 18 episodes. Zach was a huge part of why the show was so successful. But there is no question the writers are brilliant as well, and it seems like they could be able to pull it off.

This season, there was that one episode where Zach wasnt in much of it, and it was Eliott who did the end voiceover. Was one of the best of the season, so it definitely has potential without zach.

Alot of the lessons of the show, the ending montages, were basic common sense. But told in the way they were, with the intertwining of the music, it seemed like the lessons were almost biblical in importance.

    Haven't watched too much of it....I have tried to watch a few episodes, but have never really gotten the "bite" that everybody else seems to have gotten.

    I'd prefer some new episodes of Dexter ;)

    to each his own I guess.

    I love the banter between Dr Cox and Jd. And as I said The Todd always has something hilarious to say. Kelso is hilarious as well.

    The show wasnt afraid to get ridiculous either. The daydreaming fantasy sequences were hilarious but really out there

    So I'll just lie down and wait for the dream

  • I just recently started finding it funny and have been watching all the syndicated reruns.
    The one with Long Road was on this week, which threw me for a loop....I guess i vaguely remember hearing about it, but I didn't know or care about the show, so i dismissed it.

    It is pretty funny though.

    I also just realized that Elliot (Sarah Chalke) was the replacement Becky on "Roseanne", which I always loved.

    Awesome show. I never really watched it until the reruns on Comedy Central. That's when I got the bug for it. I think I've seen most of the episodes 2x. It takes a different sense of humor for that show.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me.

    Funny show. I like it. :ugeek:

    Thanks to Comedy Central showing 2 episodes a day I've now seen every one made at least a dozen times. Despite that, I still love to watch it every afternoon when I get home from work.

    What's really cool is that my daughter loves to watch it too. Whenever the theme song comes on, no matter what she's doing she stops and starts to dance to it, then she'll climb up on the couch with me and watch the whole episode. The fact that she's only a year and a half old is what makes it especially cute. ;)

    Besides, any show that uses a PJ song, especially one that's not as well known, has to be pretty good. It's an unspoken rule of broadcasting.
    It's all about the music...

    it has its moments.
    i think the main guy is a weenie and his love interest is an idiot and the friend from clueless annoys me.

    the only good part about the show is the asshole doctor who was in office space.

    sorry i dont know any of the names

    I've watched this show from the beginning to end. Definitely one of my all time favorite shows.

    It's just to bad it's ending the way it is. I personally think it should just end.

    It'll be like a tease if Braff only and Chalke come back for 6 episodes. What's the point??

    The Janitor is funny, Cox is funny, Kelso is funny and Jordan is funny... that's where it ends for me i'm afraid. I find the main cast (JD, Turk, Carla and Elliott) annoying and unnecessarily over the top. The 'heart felt' story lines are good and do get me thinking, but it's normally when the main characters aren't involved so much.
    Been to this many PJ shows: Reading 2006 London 2007 Manchester & London 2009 Dublin, Belfast, London, Nijmegen & Berlin 2010 Manchester 1 & Manchester 2 2012...

    ... and I still think Drive-By Truckers are better.

    I think its time for Braff to go. His character has turned to be kind of goofy lately....and borderline gay. Everyone else has grown up around him, and he's just annoying. I do like some of the new interns however...there may be hope yet....but honestly it hasn't been that good since switching networks.
