Doesn't SCRUB up well

This one caught me off guard a little bit. Especially when I clearly remember the last episode of Scrubs was only a few months back and that fantastic scene where they show JD dreaming of what his future will be.(note to self their must
be a word that describes this in filmmaking. hmm bing or google?)

Well the big boys over at ABC have done what they do best and decided to beat the shit out of another tv series for another series, at least! Well here's how this has played out. Zach Braff and a few other regular cast members agreed to come back for a ninth series to help the show during a transition period, they will apparently be phased out over the series with more spotlight on the new characters. Zach the lucky boy getting an execeutive producer role for his troubles, kaaa---ching!

The new series aired in December, im not sure how I missed this. Im blaming surfthechannel for this though! They used to have a sidebar on their page which would display which shows had been viewed from their site this week, so basically
it showed you what new episodes were out as they would be the most popular hits. Well those fucks at surfthechannel took this away due to the fact that apparently it was overloading their server. Anyway its back now and thats how I actually noticed Scrubs was back.

And they've sort of changed the name to Scrubs:Med School. I watched series 9 episode 1 last night or what I am going to refer to as the Med School Pilot. As I dont think it would have been picked up if this was an original series. It was all very thrown together last minute. They gave a very brief explanation of how they are at a new hospital now which has replaced the old sacred heart hospital and its now
also a medical school. JD is back as a lecturer along with Doctor Cox and Turk.

That pilot really didnt work for me. JD who is the show, is only appearing in half the episodes and the remainder will be narrated by a new female character who was pretty damn boring in the pilot.

On megatron, my robbed stuff from the internet 2 tb external hard drive, Scrubs will be labelled seasons 1-8 and the new series will be going in the spinoff shite folder.

Couldn't agree more. The last episode of season 8 was the final Scrubs. It was fantastically written and really closed the show well.
