Scrubs has been going down the tubes for the last 2 or 3 seasons. I loved that show for years but I barely made it through that last "season." I only watched out of respect for what the show used to be. And, God help me, I'm probably gonna watch the new season as well, and just get angrier and angrier.

I understand if you all don't feel the same way, but I don't like Zach Braff. I love him as JD (or I did 4 seasons ago) but as an actor he kind of sucks. I haven't liked anything he's been in besides scrubs. And he's kind of hard to look at when he tries to be serious and dramatic. Something about his face...

Anyway, I wish him all the luck in the world. And may Scrubs not bury the legacy of the show it once was under so much crap that watching DVD's of the first few seasons becomes unbearable.

if scrubs continues into a 9th season, I won't watch it.

In my opinion it needs to wrap up the story this upcoming season, and finish with an awesome finale.

I don't want to be left with cliffhangers...i don't want a sopranos style ending...i want all the storylines closed in classic scrubs fashion...and i want closure on relationships, characters and questions posed throughout the show.

If the writers finish scrubs without making it cheesy i'll be happy. It's supposed to be a dramatic comedy(haha comedy) so how about sticking with a dramatic ending, and not go with all the kooky stuff(ala season 7 finale)
Elliot+JD should = Happiness...BUT if they want to do something more dramatic that won't leave me with 10000 quesitons i'll be happy

just my opinion though

I totally trust you on your sources, Joel. I'm just saying that I can't always rely on the translated versions of Haaretz articles, so I wasn't willing to vouch for the information's accuracy...

New interns, huh? I guess we'll see how that works out...

The show wouldn't make sense without J.D. It's all in his head (fantasies, narration). When shows try to go on without their main characters, they always suck.

As awesome as Scrubs is, i feel it should end before it starts going down the crapper.
8 years is a mighty long run, especially these days

Ericf confirms that he does not like Scrubs.

Yea I sort of knew the end was near considering all the changes that have taken place in the past year. It is hear braking to see it go this way bc this is the sort of thing that ruins a show. I will miss it

Esther, Lawrence himself told me that the show may go on after season eight, even if Zach left. They'd continue with some of the old characters and a bunch of new interns who they're introducing in season eight. So, even if there was a kludgy Hebrew-to-English translation in this article, I think they got the facts of the article right.

I was always pretty sure this was it for Scrubs. Not to cast aspersions on the reporting in Haaretz, but if you read the article, it sounds like it might have been written in Hebrew and then translated, so some words may have been lost in translation. That happens sometimes...

Still, a Scrubs without Braff? How?

But if he does a movie about Israel, I've already offered to lend my expertise: http://tinyurl.com/6ychsr
