Why was Scrubs so good?

>>83223141
It got really terrible starting around season 4.

But it's a great show to put on for a chick you're trying to fuck.
>>
JD is annoying and weak. Turk and Cox, too. The women are bitchy and stupid. Generaly speaking, the women act like tough men and the guys act like pussified faggots. The show is disgusting and the humor is very light and mild. It's a gay ass show for gay people and I fucking hate it. Don't waste your time and watch this atrocious show.

As always, you're welcome.
>>
The humor is really dated. It doesn't hold up very well
>>
>>83223155
You sound like a molestor or something
>>
>>83223141
Because we were in middle school.

When you watch it now the only redeeming qualities are Cox and Kelso.
>>
>>83223314
They want it.
>>
It was really comfy but a lot of the jokes weren't really that funny and some of the characters were basically just walking memes. Some of the emotional moments were really hokey aswell. I have a nostalgia for it and still rewatch it every now and then but its really not amazing or anything.

because you watched it with your wanna be hippie girlfriend at the tender age of 13 to 15 and she would smoke you up, and you could make her laugh just by making up some random dr cox rant.

Because it subverts your expectations of "lol the funny doctor" by smacking you with the realities of working as an doctor.

That's why the best moments are those that aren't focused around JD

It's awful people comedy, but in a hospital.

The show went bad when they decided to start having houses, relationships, and children.

Seinfeld and Always Sunny never grow the characters or try to normalize them. They are always just awful people. you can't have an awful people comedy and then have them get married and kids.

if you want awful people with a family. you have to start them with a family, like Malcom in the Middle.

Season 1 is the only good season since JD is much more serious and terrified.
>>
>That friend who left the Guild
>>
>>83223995

thats absolutely wrong

you never wouldve had Jordan, any of the feels episodes, the finale, cox's collapse, or Kelso's retirement

plus janitor's best moments came after they made him a permanent character
>>
The show could never nail down a tone. The serious bits felt too jarring because the rest of the episode was nearly 'Tim and Eric' territory. It's alright to have those kinds of changes in tone but you can't do it over the course of a 30 minute episode; the arcs needed to last longer.
>>

What does it feel like to hold hands with a girl, lads?
>>
>>83223281

This, some of the feely moments hold up but the humor has been run into the ground by other contemporary sitcoms.

Even then, some of the feely moments can be really stupid. Like pretty much everything about JD and Eliot's relationships is garbage in hindsight even if I want to demolish Sarah Chalk's vagina.
>>
>>83223995
I just miss JD having a crueler side behind all the goofiness, the episode where it shows him and Elliot breaking up in reverse was kino

which one was that?

I think he means the one where it starts with them fucking in bed and eat pizza

the on ei remember the most is the one with the black girl when he meets molly again and thinks what would happen if he slept with her

better than sex and cuddling imo

the first few times it happened it gave me a chub, felt very human

scrubs was a proto-reddit series.

most relatable moment?

wtf Scrubs just got renewed
>>
>>83223141

It wasn't
>>
>>83224286
only thing I have done with a girl is holding hands, I really really liked her and when I was watching a movie with her I held her hand and I was playing with her fingers and shit. Feels really good, like you're extremely nervous but in a happy way.

If you like Scrubs you have lost all control of your life.
>>
>>83227853
and what do you call it when you let reddit control your life? As in, everything reddit likes you don't like?
>>
>>83223141

it amazes me that /tv/ shits on anything remotely popular but this garbage gets a pass for some reason
>>
>>83227853
>hating/liking something because some website likes/dislikes it
I watched Scrubs before all the Reddit shit so you can fuck off
>>
>>83227960
>/tv/ is one person
It's just a lot of different people EACH shitting on different shows, like how you are shitting on this popular show right now. You just don't realize your part of the problem.
>>
>>83223987
Maybe if he wasn't such a dick
>>
>>83223141
Surprisingly good when it was serious.
>>
>>83228132

I don't hate scrubs because it's popular, I hate it because it's awful
>>
>>83228174
Right, just like "the rest of /tv/" will claim when you ask them why they think a show is bad.

>It got really terrible starting around season 4.
I stopped watching when JD became a dad. I think season 5?

Just go and watch an episode from season 5 and then an episode from season 1 or 2. The characters have turned into clichees of themselves. The janitor is just mean and pulling jokes. Cox is just angry. JD is just weird.
>>
>>83228250

JD doesnt become a dad till S7 friendo
>>
Because you're easily amused
>>
>>83228261
I just remember that it was the cliffhanger for the last episode of some season. Can't remember which. The next season opened with his GF admitting that she is pregnant. Stopped watching right there.

I'm fucking shocked.

Molestation allegations aside, yes, this is very true. The characters were, to use a word from the Elemental Plane of Autism (tv tropes), flanderized. They becam fast a self parody.
The last series AT LEAST manage to give the whole thing a closure. Still too much stuff is just dragged, see JD and Elliot.
Still I liked the humour and many characters, all considered I remember it fondly.
