Scrubs Season 9........... oh dear god NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Discussion
What the hell happened?
Why did they bring it back?
Who wrote this travesty?
Who in the hell did the casting?
These are the questions that ran through my head as I watched episode one of the new series of Scrubs.
Don't get me wrong, I love(d) Scrubs, it's one of my favourite comedies of all time. It was consistently good, often genius and ended on a high.
In the new series though the Hospital is now a university for some reason???? With all of the old faces now teachers???? JD is now back from the Hospital he transferred to, Carla is gone and Elliot is Pregnant.
The main problem is though that the writing and casting are terrible, it's so flat and dull, even a Dr (Proffessor) Cox rant is now unfunny. There is a new woman who gives the Monologues to replace JD but she is unbelievably s
t.
The only decent new addition is intern Denise (from series 8 who is fit and funny) and an Australian student who Cox takes the piss out of for her accent.
In summary though you can add Scrubs to the pile of once great comedies that went on too long and aren't funny anymore. It'll be joining The Simpsons, King of The Hill, Bo Selecta etc etc.
Shame really.

I gave up after series 6 - it just got a bit tedious; the fantastic episodes of the earlier series were never repeated with the later series, instead just relying on circus like tomfoolery rather than the clever humour of old.
I've aqquired Series 7, but I just can't bring myself to watch it and ruin my memories of old.

I'm going to watch the first two new ones in the next few days. Not expecting much to be honest. Was disapointed to hear they were doing another series as the ending of the last season couldn't have been any better. I think this wil have to be scrubs 'Rocky V'- Good but not good enough.
)Not on sky, online, aired in the US on Dec 1st.
I absolutely love Scrubs, a proper upbeat comedy. I thought the new episodes were pretty good, I was entertained and they introduced new characters, although the unconfident blonde is a bit of a pain.
I like Denise, she's grown on me, I also liked the surgeon from the last few episodes of season 8, Derek, he seemed a good character, hopefully will appear again.
The Aussie's a nice piece of eye candy.
It's still got Kelso, there's less whining from Jordan and Eliott, all is good for me!

king watch it then. (I only add this as this is this posters standard response whenver Top Gear is criticised)
I will still watch Scrubs mainly for....
but also...
He should have his own series. One of the best characters on the show.
But Scrubs itself jumped the shark around the time of the "Fairy Tale" episode and then again with the recent dreadful Jan Itors wedding episodes.
Now How I Met Your Mother..quality and you still get Sarah Chalke

I practice what I preach and I won't be watching any more. I had to watch one episode to make a judgement obviously.
I definately won't turn into one of the PH cretins/spaks/retards/idiots who watches something for Seven years complaining every single week about the same thing.
Check and indeed mate.

Good news. I don't fall into that trap of 7 years. And I don't complain about every show. I practice what I preach and I won't be watching any more. I had to watch one episode to make a judgement obviously.

And even more good news. Defintely not your mate
I love scrubs
A housemate introduced me to it around 3 years ago and its just tops
Fully admit is hasnt been as good since about Season 5, but still enjoy it
Best episode ever for me (putting aside Elliots tits for a moment) has to be when Ben died and Cox was making out like him and JD were going to his sons birthday party and JD says "where do you think we are?"
They turnj round, and its Ben's funeral
Knew how to do the bitter sweet stuff to perfection in the early seasons

Yep that episode was Scrubs at it's finest, had the genius bit were Cox pays a tramp to be his alarm clock by shouting 'Beep Beep Beep' in his ear.A housemate introduced me to it around 3 years ago and its just tops

I've watched Scrubs since the very first episode was shown on C4 and was pleased with the 'ending' they did at the end of Seaon 8.
Why they brought it back with this re-hashed shadow of it's former self is just beyond me. Just money taking president over pride in their work.

Yup, I'm into this as well, can't be a bad series to have Britney Spears in it, and Sarah Chalke. Neil Patrick Harris is just awesome in it too.Shame they finished this series and it will only be on once a week when it returns in a few weeks though.
