So, I watched the finale to Scrubs last night, and while it was funny in its "Scrub-esque" kinda way, I was very much let down....only because it's supposed to be the series finale. Someone help me out here...I assume based on the advertising that it was supposed to be the last new episode of Scrubs....am I wrong? Was it just the season finale? If so, thank god...but I coulda swore it was the last of the series.

I never cared much for the show. I had no idea it was still on.

I'm into Grey's Anatomy and ER along with House... Didn't get into Bones or Scrubs...

Sorry to hear you didn't care for it's ending though... I know what it feels like when I get let down by a show...

If you've never really watched it, you should go back and start watching the reruns and give it at least 4 episodes worth of a chance...the show is insanely hilarious and I just love it....but the thing about the finale is....for me, I think if you are going to do a finale, you need to at least double the running time of the normal format..in this case, from half hour to a full hour, and you need to try and find some kind of finality to the on going story...I didn't feel like the finale left me with any kind of closure to the story....to me it kinda felt like it left it to be continued...but how can it be continued if this is the series finale?!?!?!? I'm confused...

A lot of my friends are intro scrubs... I was made to watch quite a few episodes, but never got into it... it's something that I cannot watch more then a couple of episodes of before wanting to stab someone in the eyeball.

That's very profound...and a little disturbing. Remind me to not allow my eyeballs in the vicinity of your area while watching a Scrubs marathon.

It's odd, but I tend to classify TV shows into two categories:

Shows that allow you to escape reality and really engage in the story for an hour or so and entertain you every time (but in moderation), and shows that feel like TV shows and make you feel like a couch potato slob, even more so for every hour you spend watching them.

Scrubs falls into the latter for me... and pretty much everything on cable. Hence why I would never get it installed.

That's just me... because I know the show is popular for a reason.

LMAO...

Cub just has a way with words...

Indeed.....I get what you are saying Cub....and I agree with it. There are some shows that you can just wrap yourself up like a blanket with and get lost for an hour or what have you....and then other shows you come away from saying to yourself "My god I just waisted a half an hour of my life watching this crap...how do I get that time back?" I guess Scrubs is that kinda show for you....I think I just like the show because I relate to the main character JD...goofy acting, can be smart, has ongoing issues with love, but is likeable to most people. I just love the humor on the show...just very stupid humor. That's me! lol

I totally dig where you're coming from Adnins. I can see the humor there, but you're right, the show as a whole is not my cup of tea... mainly because all the charters attempt the same humor, rather than being diverse in their own ways.

I tell you a comedic show that I enjoyed that I don't really hear too many people mention now a days was Wings. I thought that show was absolutely hysterical...

It doesn't get mentioned because no one shows reruns... The people that were in it have mostly died out of the scene... Joe {Tim Daly} appeared on that one new spin off of Grey's Anatomy, but that didn't last long... Brian {Steve Weber} appeared on Brother's and Sisters for a little while... Crystal Bernard went back to country music, but hasn't released anything new in quite awhile, she did however do a couple of Life Time movies...

The show Wings was very good, but no one even shows reruns...

Married With Children... I always loved that show...

Home Improvement was a great show, I still watch reruns of that...


We could go on and on with "What Use To Be"... Truth of the matter is, they just don't make 'em like they use to...

I guess that's why I don't watch much tv because there ain't much worth watching.

That about sums it up for a lot of people...

With the exception for gratuitous, grievous bodily harm, I've had much the same reaction to Arrested Development, I really failed to see the funny side of it.
