Scrubs

This is the funnuest show I have ever seen, I am happy watching all the episodes in that I missed in reruns. When are they going to start making more?

Umm...the new shows will be shown in the upcoming new fall season on NBC, probably sometime in late September.

Yes, this is the show that should have Seinfeld's time slot. Not that half assed, rely on a guest star every week, hype machine that is Will & Grace.

I agree. Like Seinfeld, you either "get" this show or you don't.

I have friends/relatives/co-workers who have never seen a single episode of Seinfeld, and others who don't see a single interesting quality in the episodes they did see.

I now hear the same comments about Scrubs.

IMHO, though, Scrubs has great writing, great acting, terrific characters, and a nice mix of comedy and occasional serious tones. I'd be more than happy to get this on DVD if/when it ever comes out.

And best of all, no crappy laugh track!


Ditto to everyone. Scrubs is by far my favorite comedy on tv right now. I do wish, though, that NBC would give it a different time slot. Every time they decide to air a 40 min. episode of Friends, that's 10 minutes of Scrubs I'm denied.

My top two comedies for the last couple of seasons have been Scrubs and King of Queens...they are the only two that have consistently been funny...and I would put Scrubs above KOQ...I like their use of music in the episodes as well...bring back Ted's accapella group, and Collin Hay!

Yep, easily my favorite sitcom on TV today. Elliot is neurotic but hot! Turk is funny, excellent match-up with JD's brand of humor. I like Todd's pevertedness, I see myself when I look at him! The janitor rules! I could go on and on, what a great cast of characters!

My wife and I love Scrubs. Can't wait for it to start up again.

Luckily, I have a friend that works for the show, so I've got my autographed picture of Elliot to tide me over until October.

I hate it when they do that, too. It pisses me off something fierce.

Acutally when they super size they usually super size all three shows (Friends, Scrubs, W&G, to equal 2 hours) then show ER. I have never seen a 20 minute version of any of those shows.

I don't think they ever super sized Scrubs, they just left it off the schedule

They super-size it on occasion, they just don't do it as much as they have Friends and Will & Grace.

Or, bass line. =) I love seinfeld, but it gets annoying after a while. This show is cool, and I recently just jumped on the wagon after my brother told me about it. It's like a comedy version of ER, with a lot of stuff happening all the time, the last repeat was good. My TCW or something, this and coupling is on the top of my list every week.

I belong to the first category. I can't stand Seinfeld and even the previews on TBS irritate me to no end especially when Jason Alexander or Michael Richards open their mouths.

Having said that, I absolutely love Scrubs. Best comedy, best ensemble cast on TV right now. I missed all of the first season but caught all of the last one. I too would like this on DVD. With Commentary by Ted and The Todd of course.
