Idk, Scrubs ended at season 8 for me. Maybe I’ll give it a chance, but I’m keeping expectations pretty low. Reading the article, it seems like it could be worthwhile if it really is just a season or two of “old friends” getting back together for a little fun. We’ll see, but it looks like Braff is the only one signed up for now, and that won’t really sell it for me
Edit: Working in the medical field makes me a little averse to medical shows. But Scrubs and (now) The Pitt are about the only ones I feel have merit (to me). Despite different styles, they both hit pretty hard sometimes
This one kinda always lives rent free in my mind. It’s all about the patient… just do your best and fuck the rest. You can deal with everything else when you’re off shift
Season 8 is where show runner Bill Lawrence wanted it to end. The only reason there was ever a season 9 is because it was supposed to be a spin-off, but the ghouls at the network insisted it carry the Scrubs branding.
reboots rarely work out, especially done so “soon” after a series ended. reiminagied series can be good though, like with BSG, but still fall shorts on many things, due to showrunners personal agenda.
Yep I just can’t see this working
especially with the executives or another showrunner trying to push a agenda based on current issues, it almost always ruin the show.
Oh gawd I hate that
to emphasize, what they think thier current audience is offended of.
I think I will reserve judgement until I see it. A getting-the-gang-back-together series or two could be a good time, or it could be another “Scrubs: Med School”.
When has one of these reboots worked?
When has one of these reboots worked?
An example that comes to mind is the “reboot as new show but with blatant fan service cameos” formula used by “The Big Bag Theory”, “Young Sheldon”, and “Georgie’s First Marriage”.
Scrubs could be done well in the same style. Of course, I also liked the last time they tried it.
Another example that worked - “Mission Impossible” - the first movie was a good movie but a bad adaptation of the original show, but the series has gone on to become a completely worthy extension of the original show.
And…well…That’s two. So I night just be sharing the exceptions that prove the rule.
Futurama reboot(s) are good. Not quite up to original run but good.
Trailer park boys had a decent season or two with Netflix
I don’t know about others, but I kinda liked Picard. It was clear it was just an excuse to get the old gang back together, but it was enjoyable to watch.
I’m not sure how enjoyable it would have been to someone unfamiliar with TNG, but I enjoyed it.
Honestly I did get giddy setting the TNG crew back together in season 3 of Picard. I could leave the rest
Now that you mention it, it probably could have done without season 2.
picard was terriblely written series, the “nostalgia” gimmick was just to save the dying show.STD and snw wernt that great, and snw ranked about the other 2 series. however, LOWER DECKS AND PRODIGY were much better series than the other 2.
kurtzman being involved dint help anything either.
The Connors has been successful.
Guess he and his Scrubs buddies got tired of doing T-Mobile commercials.
Then Zach should play Bob Kelso in the reboot.
I don’t think ending each episode with a monologue over an indie song will work today
I never liked scrubs that much. First two or so seasons were alright, but the slapstick and fast forward slide whistle humor was rough. I don’t see how any of that would remotely hold up today when there are so many really good shows are out. Scrubs had a place because streaming wasn’t athing yet.
I always just watched it when nothing else was on lol
Or is that just what we tell ourselves to cope with your broken promises and dreams?
Another reboot?
I was going to say, wait another reboot?
A reboot, you say?
Half this show was about gay, dick, and fart jokes. Will be an interesting reboot.
Not everything was like that. In fact, the first season had almost none of that stuff, arguably my favorite season before they started making sillier and sillier jokes.
Well yeah he said half
I hope he comes back as JD, but now he’s older and wiser and just as jaded as Dr. Cox, basically fulfilling the same role Cox did.
I want him to play JD playing Dr. Cox
And cox pops in once in a while eating muffins?
Scrubs but in the setting of The Pitt
I’ve never watched scrubs but if they rebooted the show with the same cast and characters but it was super serious and dramatic, I would definitely watch the original series and then the new one to compare because it would be so totally unique
The original series is well worth watching today, as someone who just watched it for the first time a few years ago.
All 8 seasons are great
I liked the spin-off but it felt like they never really gave it a chance to be its own show for some reason.
I hear he’s a never-nude.
Oh fuck you dude, now I need to start another rewatch.
Should be fun. Lean into the difference in experience as a mature professional. Get some perspective on why Dr. Cox is Like That.
