NBC has already started showing reruns of the current season and they'll probably show reruns sporadically during the rest of the season. If you're hoping to catch a rerun of the entire season—in order—you'll probably have to wait until after the season is over which is the earliest they'll be able to fit all 18 episodes together. I just don't know if NBC usually reruns the entire season during the summer break.

Yeah they've practically re-aired every new episode from this season already! (I think they were rerunning episodes that were only 3 weeks old!)

Dude, I'd start recording them/watching. Nothing much has happened yet (except
Spoiler:
Monica & Chandler found a baby and a new house in the burbs
) so watch it. Chances are everyone will spoil what happens for you after the final episode airs. Anyone who has ever watched an episode will probably be tuning in for that last one....

I think you'll have plenty of Friends reruns coming up soon - I think I read there are 5 new episodes to show in the next 4 months.

Um the sweeps episodes are all new according to TVTome:

229. 05-Feb-2004 The One Where The Stripper Cries
230. 12-Feb-2004 The One With Phoebe's Wedding
231. 19-Feb-2004 The One Where Joey Speaks French
232. 26-Feb-2004 The One With Princess Consuela
Spoiler:
233. 15-Apr-2004 The One Where Rachel Decides
234. 22-Apr-2004 The One Where Estelle Dies
235. 29-Apr-2004 The One With Rachel's Going Away Party /
The One Where Rachel Goes To Paris
236 06-May-2004 The Last One, Part I & II


Until they move Good Morning Miami back to Thursday nights, I would expect two Friends episodes during sweeps. There is a HUGE gap with no new episodes from 2/26 - 4/22. PLENTY of time for repeats!

I don't have anything to support this but it's my guess that Thursday nights on NBC will something along the following.

8-8:30pm
Friends

8:30-9pm
Will & Grace

9pm-10pm
The Apprentice

Unless they drop W&G from the schedule, I wouldn't anticipate a double dose of Friends.

Is Scrubs moving again or disappearing altogether?!

They have shown almost every episode this season twice if not three times.

This is where DVD sales and syndication are killing current shows runs. Instead of re-running an episode from 4 weeks prior they used to pull one from a year or two before so it wasn't so fresh in your mind. Kinda disappointing. I would sit though an older one easily, but one I just saw 4 weeks ago... not a chance. Get real NBC.

How stupid is it that there is a two month gap between episodes even though they've been promoting the hell out of this season. Greedy bastards.

Not many shows air ALL of their new episodes without a rerun here or there.
