Wow love all this Scrubs love. Most ppl I talk to have not seen it.

One of the best sitcoms imho. Finale prob my favorite one ever. SO well done. And yes amazing soundtrack. Discovered many artists from this show. Again, avoid season 9. Trash and ended perfectly at 8.

I'm sure most of you are aware but some may not be...Scrubs is on Prime Video for those of you with a Prime membership.

I am never not on a rewatch of Scrubs. It's my #1 show of all time and I've seen it 10+ times through at this point, lost count. It's a comfort; I put it on when I'm in a bad mood or when I'm cleaning/folding clothes.

I was so excited for the podcast, and it's great! I love hearing about the inner workings and memories of my favorite show. But I find Zach and Donald very energetic and I don't always have the energy to keep up with their conversations, if that makes sense? Plus two new episodes a week is hard to keep up with. But I'm very glad it exists and I LOVE all their guests. It's so great how the cast got to be so close and remains good friends.

There was supposed to be a reunion panel of the Scrubs cast at the ATX TV Fest this year in June, but it obviously got cancelled/went digital and never happened AFAIK. I'm really hoping that something like this happens in the future because I would have killed for tickets to that panel.

All that to say, Scrubs is a fantastic show and I love it all (except season 9).

Maybe I should put this on the wrong opinions thread, but I think they actually found a little something at the end of Season 9 and could have been successful with it. They just buried themselves in too deep of a hole early on.

Now that I am working from home I have fallen way behind on the podcast. I just listen to episodes with a guest I like or an episode I particularly like.

There might have been something there, but it would have almost been better as a completely separate show, not "scrubs"

Same here. It didn't help that at least over the summer, Zach got pretty annoying talking about Covid/politics at certain points. I deal with it everyday in the clinic and really would rather not hear about it when I'm at home.

Scrubs always did a killer job with its soundtrack.
The streaming episodes don't have the original soundtrack.


Why would they not have the original soundtrack? I'm assuming it's some odd copyright issue.

Is there some sort of future hellish universe where the songs of Gaurdians of the Galaxy movies will be replaced for streaming platforms?

This just seems to be absurd.

Has to do with the rights to the music. May be crazy, but it's the truth.

My understanding is that the music rights were negotiated before streaming was a thing.

After Season 7, NBC stopped airing it, and it moved over to ABC. ABC actually owned the show the entire time, though it was on NBC (I am oversimplifying this because it gets into network politics that I don't understand).


Until the past decade, tv production studios operated separately from the networks their parent company owned. The networks would try to keep in-house what they thought were going to be the best shows. If another network was willing to bid on the rights of something you're going to pass on, why not take their money to keep the work rolling for the studio. Now we're in an age where all the media companies are hoarding the majority of their content. If the execs feel it won't get enough ad buys for their legacy or cable channels, they'll push it straight to their new streaming platform. The major studios saw how much Netflix could make from their properties. That combined with Netflix entering the movie and TV production game, ushered in the model we see today.

On the one hand I can understand that, but on the other it seems like some sort of copyright troll technicality. It's almost like saying you have the rights to the song for initial broadcast, but not syndication. Although, I'm sure syndication was included in the contracts back then.

Song choice in a movie or show is a part of the art form and it's sad to see original works changed like that.

The dumbest aspect of this is that the copyrighted songs that are not getting played are actually limiting the exposure for those musical artists. They are hurt more by their omission than if they would've been included.

Scrubs is one of my all time favorite shows. I discovered it at a really low point in my life and felt a real connection to the characters.

JD and Turk were good friends to me when I didn't have many in real life.

To stay on the Scrubs topic, I love the entire show and even enjoy the seasons that weren't the greatest. However, seasons 1-4 are the best.

My Fifteen Minutes is one of my top 5 episodes:

Just watched that episode. Wish I could dance like Turk.

I'm in for all 8 seasons, going to try and avoid season 9.

I binged Scrubs basically every semester in college, but it's been a couple years since my last re-watch. This thread is making me want to do it again.

Scrubs is top 3 for me, and I rewatch most of it periodically. I love the amount and use of music in the show. The podcast talks about how that was very planned and how parts of many episodes almost become music videos.

I don't know what makes the show so great. Maybe some combination of the music, comedy, drama, friendships, dialogue, unexpected serious moments, great characters, and warm fuzzies at the end of each episode.

Dr. Kelso to the janitor - "Let's cut to the chase, freak show. If you're a forty-four-year-old man wearing a jumpsuit and you are not climbing into the cockpit of a rocket ship, chances are you've made a lot of wrong turns along the way. Good talk."

I just had to... one of my favorite moments in the show. THE WARRIOR!!!




After several thousand views of this clip, my favorite part has become the look of confused disgust on turk's face like he simply cannot understand why j d has lost on purpose.

I have been sufficiently prompted to re-watch the entire series (of course, NOT to include that abomination called season 9)

Love scrubs. It also does a great job of capturing a lot of truth about medicine, medical training, and hospitals. They must have had great consultants.

I emailed this thread to Joelle, the podcast producer and she wrote back saying she loved all the specific memories of people identifying with it and she had forwarded to both Zach and Donald to check out.
