I'm not talking about the shitty clothing, I'm talking about the TV show.

Season 7 starts in 11 days, the last one too, anyone looking forward to it?

Think it's run its course though... probably best for this to be the last season. Going round in circles really last season.

Agree with that, I think the comedy in it is still hilarious, but the overlying story isnt really going anywhere.

Aye, there are definite good points about it ending. It will be remembered as a classic and that it didn't last too long, like most other popular shows do. Didn't think there was much wrong with last season though, apart from perhaps the very very last scene...

Probably, but still feel like the show should've moved passed that.

The cliffhanger this time around is pretty much the same as one we had around season 2-3 if I recall correctly.

Don't get why it's so popular. It's your typical lame, thinly-veiled morality play from the US iyam. Not funny either, which doesn't help.

Alex and Madras are f****** spot on here.  Was forced to sit through 3 hours of it the other night, I barely more than once forced air out my nose.  Not once did I feel an opportunity to laugh. 

Pish.

Wildy overrated, as these shows so often are.

I think it was great at 1st, but i lost interest about the start of series 3.

Doesn't have enough variety for it to go into 7 series imo.

I think it's the best thing on TV tbh.

It's one of the only shows I can watch over and over and still laugh.

Guess it's just different people's sense of humour though.

I personally think it's great.

Used to be good. Seems like they've just repeated themselves for the last 2 seasons or so.

I'd agree to an extent (in terms of storyline), but it's purely about the comedy for me, and think some of the funnist moments have been in the last 3 seasons

Had the mispleasure of sitting through an entire episode of this the other weekend at a mates house.  Was half an hour of typically crap comedy, with a rubbish script, storyline and unfunny gags - just what I've come to expect from this sort of show. General consensus was similar.

I like Scrubs, but it isn't anywhere near Arrested Development or CYE's level.

Do people just say things like "rubbish script and storyline" to sound like their opinion is more intelligent than just simply "I dont like it", because while the overlying storyline of Scrubs is pretty repetitive and not really going anywhere, on an individual episode level they are actually IMO quite well thought out most of the time. I can understand people not finding it funny because everyone is to their own, but to watch one or two episodes (most likely with a mind set that "its gonna be crap") and say that the storyline is poor just doesnt make sense to me.

Scrubs' scriping is far from rubbish. It's true that it's repetetive, sometimes, but in all fairness, there's only so many unique stories you can tell in a hospital. It's going to get tired eventually.

Anyway, "My Screw Up" is easily one of the best sitcom scripts ever written. If not THE best. Most writers who've ever tried to write a sitcom that's more than just "funny" will tell you that. It suceeds brilliantly on both a dramatic and emotional level.

Have to admit the first few times I watched it I didn't really like it but I got back round to watching it one day and have thought it was great since. The Janitor and Dr Cox are just really funny. I think it gets more enjoyable the more you get to know the characters.
