Scrubs Starts Tonight

Didn't like the whole thing with JD knocking up the new girlfriend at the end of last year, but it is good to see one of the best comedies on TV back.

 

...and I'm going to miss it, pending a miracle, because of high school basketball.

Along with Earl and The Office

Boo I say, boo!

 

In what I'll acknowledge is a largely meaningless life I'm leading, I have to say I'm psyched about this new NBC Thursday night lineup. Earl, the office, 30 rock (which I've never seen, but plan to start) and scrubs. sounds like two hours where my ass will not move from the couch.

 

Mad -- I feel your pain. Whole NBC lineup is preempted locally by Bengals-Ravens. F**K.

 

We need to soak up the goodness as much as possible from tonight through May, as Braff already said this season is going to be his last go-round with the Scrubs crew. :'(

 

Is it just me or have the reruns started popping up on every channel?

Comedy Central shows an hour at 7 p.m. and two or three local channels show at least one episode a day.

 

Thanks for the reminder, I need to set the DVR for the fiancee before going to work in a few minutes.

 

I just started watching the show in reruns. It's really good. The local Fox affiliate here just started showing the show from the start at midnight (followed by another episode from 2004 or so at 12:30).

It's really well-done. Hard to balance the comedy with the drama of a hospital, but they pull it off in pretty impressive fashion. And the two older doctors are played perfectly. I look forward to seeing whether or not they humanize 'em.

 

It's not MASH in its prime, but Scrubs is one of the better comedies around. Glad it's back on the air.

 

I just started watching reruns of Scrubs about a month ago and immediately loved it. The humor is quirky and relatable, even a bit Seinfeldian. Plus, Zach Braff's adorable quotient is sky-high. ;D

 

You haven't seen his movies then. Garden State knocked him down a few pegs for me.

And besides I like Kelso, Cox, the Janitor and the shat-upon lawyer. It's these characters that really make the show great.

 

The Janitor is hilarious. He's threatening to kill Zach in the first few episodes.

And Garden State sucked. Hard. That's probably why I'm so late to the Scrubs party.
