How NBC Killed Scrubs

Mr E

Dramatic or what?

I'd love to meet the genius who decided that Scrubs could survive against Greys Anatomy on ABC and CSI on CBS.

Scrubs is going up against these heavyweights on November 30th.

I'm fairly certain it was going to be the last season anyway. I think Zach Braff said it would be his last.

I read an interview somewhere recently with him about his new movie and he said they are definitely doing 7 seasons and he has a few more months to decide on an eight.

Good side and bad side..

Good side: Scrubs is back..

Bad side: Against Grey's Anatomy and CSI..? Have they been sniffing glue?! :eek:

Eh... 7 seasons? I'm skeptical. Link to prove this claim?

I'd be about 90% sure this is Braff's last season.. said it in an interview recently that his contract was up at the end of this.. and can't see him signing for anymore.

Can they not just do a season without him???

Blasphemy..! :eek:

'Scrubs' wouldn't be 'Scrubs' without JD... just my opinion though!

Scrubs is pretty much centred around JD imo. He is the 'voice' on the show.

Twas in the Metro or Day and Night or something like that.

Anything that NBC touch seems to turn into a disaster, can't do anything right.

Have to say I usually hate shows that go on after key members of the cast leave. It'd be nice if Scrubs could end with the same group it began with.

Simon left after the 2nd season.. 3rd season was brillant though as it made comedy stars out of Kurt & Brian - 3rd season was actually the best outta the 3 seasons just for those two.

But they left after the end of the 3rd season.. and 4th season was utter crap. Trying to make a season around Bob... for shame, Channel 4!

Have to disagree with you there. I much preferred the earlier series with Simon, Susan and the scary one (can't remember her name) and always felt annoyed by Kurt and Brian really.

Oh, and back on topic, I'm fairly sure that interview with Zach Braff was a 60 second interview in the Metro.
