I like it....

I didn't realise they did...?

I'm watching it right now, actually. It's great.

What are scrubs? Are you talking about those gown things that doctors wear?

Same.

What are scrubs? Are you talking about those gown things that doctors wear?

It's a hospital sitcom as well.

I find it pretty funny.

Because every show ends in mushy, feel-good, meaningless moralising, with some whiny indie band playing over he top.

Totally spoils the other 25 minutes of a damn funny show.

I like scrubs. It's not a bad show. Kinda weird and kinda funny.

I like it....

People hate Scrubs?
I love that TV show!
We must kill the infidel Scrubs haters. :mad:

Then again, I could never figure out why people hated Doctor Who either.
Maybe the entire world (except for you, myself and a few other people) has bad taste in TV.

Edit: 1,000th post! I hate the title 'Pimp', though...

hmmm, I guess the endings are a bit cliche sometimes. But that doesn't stop it from being teh pwnage.

Elliot Reid is hawt!

now that I have that out of my system yes it is good I don't watch it much but its the thoughts that count

it's good. I get annoyed when people compare it to some of the other "medical" shows.

"I don't like House, Scrubs is better"
"I don't like Grey's Anatomy, Scrubs is better"

it's idiocy. Scrubs is a comedy.....and while House can be funny, it's not a comedy......and Grey's Anatomy is almost never funny unless you enjoy dramatic irony, but it's still not a comedy.

It's like comparing.......well, I can't think of anything that it's like comparing.

i dont like scrubs because its too campy.

What!

I love Scrubs so much that I want to take it behind a middle-school and get it pregnant.

i wish it was at a better time slot

I love M*A*S*H :)

however I did think of a comparable comparison

it's like saying

"I don't like Star Trek, Mork and Mindy is better"

(if you don't know what Mork and Mindy is.... *smack*)

hmmm, I guess the endings are a bit cliche sometimes. But that doesn’t stop it from being teh pwnage.
A bit clichéd? They’re dripping with cheese. Hot, meaningless, feel-good cheese!

Yeah, like when that brendon frasier's character died of cancer! That was way too feel-good and mushy.....

LOL thats great!

... they do?

I like it....

It just isn't my type of show, I guess. Sitcoms in general aren't really my thing.

Pah, Hydesland, you won't kill many infidels with a child's toy like that.
Now this... this is what you want when killing infidels.

*pulls out all three volumes of Sir Winston Churchill's 'The Great War'*

Imagine hitting someone on the head with these babies...

I like the show :)

One show out of six or seven seasons of cheesy mush?

I haven’t seen the episode in question, but it probably ended with Zach Braff monologuing in a middle-of-the-road way about cancer, with on-screen characters moving around in slow motion, with a sad look on their faces.

They always do...

When you've been raised on programmes the likes of "Dad's Army" then "Scrubs" just isn't funny by comparison, but as "Scrubs" is not aimed at my age group, then that is not really suprising.

You stupid boy...

I like it....


Its chances of greatness are destroyed by the sentimentality and schmaltz. Thus the laughs are drowned by vomit. Sad, really.

Ah, then you've seen it? I know the set exists; my father owns them, and I've read them many a time over, but try as I might I can't find mention of them anywhere I look! Even Google and Wikipedia have failed me.
'The World Crisis' is mentioned often, although this was six volumes as opposed to three...

No-one said it was as funny as Dad's Army; that would take some doing.
*is a massive Dad's Army fan*

It's just funny by the standards of most shows today.

I don't watch it regularilly, but it's not a bad show, comparitive to a lot of other shows on the air.

... like Bones... oh god, that show makes me want to peel off my skin and shove it in my ears.

I like it....

Yeah.

"Either he's got a lightbulb up his pooper or his colon had a great idea."

M*A*S*H?

I am showing my age, I think...

That show's awesome. (Is 13) Scrubs isn't in the same league, but it's still pretty funny for modern TV.

Does that mean you like 'Bones'??

('Twas based on novels by Kathy Reichs... I have read one: Death du Jour. I was surprised when I saw it on TV one day.)

I love Scrubs!! Dr. Cox pwns!

First, a salute.

Then, hey, the age-wise target-audience for Scrubs can still have been raised on Dad's Army!

Anyway, I don't know, I like Scrubs, but I won't try to deny that it is frequently hurt by cheese of the highest order, and that ZB can be quite the irritating little so and so.

I don't understand why people watch Bones, House, and so on and so forth. If they're not funny, but they're on television, I must be missing the point, because it's not like they can be called high-brow, educational, or anything like that. I'm not sure what on earth they offer. I'd rather either have a giggle, or... not watch television.

I don't hate "Scrubs." My feelings about "Scrubs" could best be summed up as "meh." I never seek it out, but I would not particularly moan and complain if someone made me watch it, either. (Well, actually, I might moan and complain a little, since I believe "Scrubs" is on opposite "Grey's Anatomy," and the latter is my implausible-girly-soap-opera fix for the week. :p )

How could anyone not be in awe when Dr. Cox goes on one of his rants or belittle JD? :eek:

Because....it doesn't have to be funny to be entertaining....

People don't like Scrubs? I didn't know such lifeforms existed.

You just need your weekly dose of McDreamy. :p

Yea but Scrubs is only half as long, and twice as funny! :D (Scrubs Motto).

Does that mean you like 'Bones'??

('Twas based on novels by Kathy Reichs... I have read one: Death du Jour. I was surprised when I saw it on TV one day.)


Yick! No, I hate that show, but I guess my comment was a little inclear... I'm running on 4 hours of sleep. I haven't read the novels, so I can't give an opinion there, but the show... it's just riding on the current (dwindling) popularity of cop/medical dramas with very flat, unrealistic characters. I mean, I understand it's just fiction, but that doesn't mean you can't put a little thought and effort into making good, thoughtful scripts.

You just need your weekly dose of McDreamy. :p

That may also be a factor, yes. ;)

I love Scrubs, one of the funniest shows in recent years, and one of the few american sitcoms I've liked (can't stand Friends).

Scrubs is the only live-action show put out by any Network television station in the last decade that is remotely worth watching.

Dr. Cox does indeed pwn.

I like it....

If you mean the show, it's actually got quite a few funny moments in it.
Especially when Colin Hay played in it. *nods*

It's ok. The kind of show that if I were watching tv and it were on, I'd likely watch it, but I wouldn't actively make sure I can watch it. Like most good sitcoms in the last decade or so, it seems to have had an excellent first couple of seasons then slowly gone downhill while retaining hardcore fans.

What!

I love Scrubs so much that I want to take it behind a middle-school and get it pregnant.

I'm not sure what this is trying to say, do you love it or not?

What he said. Also House is pretty damn intelligent and pretty damn funny as well. One of the best shows on television.

The only thirty minute show that I reguraly watch on television is The Office.
Scrubs never made me care enough to watch it for more than ten minutes.

I've never watched Scrubs. I only really watch the NHL, which is turning in to crap. With all these stupid rule changes, they are going to have to start calling it the WFSL (Wussified Figure Skating League). The natives we stole the game from must be rolling in their graves.

I also occasionally watch South Park, That 70's Show, and Family Guy.

Oh I thought you said Shrub ... don't watch Scrubs.

I like the show :)

I had a dream there was a House board game that Cuddy was touring seminars for. I played it with six other people, one dude and five women, and three of the women had diabetes, and the dude was jaundice for some reason. Cuddy, of course, was hot though.

who hates it?? everybody i know loves it, including me :)

I quite like it, although I haven't been watching it lately. But that's the same problem I'm having with every other show I've been amused by. You have no idea what you've missed in your region, in the same way I've missed episodes of my shows, and am confused because of it. I wish I could remember the damn times..

Dr. Cox rants is part of the reason he pwns.

Scrubs is a great show, and one the few sitcoms produced by America today that's actually funny.

Scrubs is alright, I'd rate it as moderately funny. I'll watch it if there's nothing better on. It's usually on about midnight here, so I can't really be arsed.

Elliot Reid is hawt!
Quoted for truth!

same time here

I remember watching the first series and thinking that it just could not be an American show...it was just too funny.

Then I watched the 2nd series and thought...ok...really this is a bit of a rehash of the first series and really not as funny...then it just got repetitive and slightly boring. It still gets a chuckle on the occasions I have seen the later shows I will admit.

One thing I do like and I tip my hat is the recurring theme of JD and the Janitor...brilliant. Those exchanges are just brilliant....

The schmaltz at the end though just annoys me. Why do they do that?

11:30 if the Channel Seven timetable in Victoria is the same as the one here.

That'd be the one.

I don't hate it. I watched a few shows when it first started.. but really .. now.. I don't watch new episodes of anything. I like reruns. The most recent show I watched (new episode) was House. But that was by accident.. i happen to clicking past it, saw it on and I watched it. I Like Reruns!.

But actually the main dude is quite annoying. Don't really like him.

Also.. the commercial for his new movie .. where he's riding his bike laughing at somethings he's done and wham rides into a car. He looks too much like Ben Stiller(no, not cause he's a jew too :/) just the way it's done. I think he's lame.

If you mean the show, it's actually got quite a few funny moments in it.
Especially when Colin Hay played in it. *nods*

So he's playing in Anchorage tonight at 7.30 for $29!
WooT!!
*dabbles cologne*
*plants wilt*

People hate scrubs....Huh??????? This is truly news to me...tho in secret my favorit show is House...

Me likey Scrubs.

And how the fuck is it "campy"? If anything, Grey's Anatomy is campy. Scrubs is just classic comedy. Well-written comedy, I should say.

Another Appletini, please!

I used to hate it, but now I like it. I guess I just had to get used to their particular brand of over-the-top humor.

Gray's Anatomy is not campy, it's a soap opera with slightly better acting. The montage at the end of every episode of Scrubs is quite campy.

Yeah, I got my definitions confused.


Scrubs = slightly campy overall, but very good.

Grey's Anatomy = shit.

I tried watching it but I cant find it in myself to like it, mostly the characters piss me off.

More or less, I agree. I like Cox's rants but nothing else about the show holds my attention.

Because....it doesn't have to be funny to be entertaining....

Meh. But these things -Grey's this and whatever that- don't seem, to me, to offer much. They're not funny, but they don't offer me much in the way of education, either. I can't have sex with them, they don't get me drunk, they don't make me smarter, they don't make me laugh, they don't make me think about something new, it's strange. I'm normally quite easily pleased in life, but television that doesn't offer a chuckle -unless it's a very rare piece of creative genius or artistic beauty- just leaves me cold.

I'm pretty sure that I can't be alone in feeling like that -or anything else- but perhaps it's a rarer attribute than I'd imagined!

Well, at least this has made me think.

When I first watched the show, I didn't like it much except for the Doctor who was Bob from Office Space, but I've watched it since and enjoy it.

I can understand why people don't like it though.

Probably because it isn't that funny.
