Right there with you, after what they did with the season that doesn't exist (season 9, I refuse to acknowledge it) I don't trust them with this property. The whole appeal of the show was JD and Turk's growth, and of course the Cox rants. Also what's the point without Ted.

I'm okay with a generation not instinctively crowd-funding a Zach Braff project.
I'm out of the loop. What's up with Zach Braff?
I don’t remember specifics but when Kickstarter was in its infancy Zach Braff had a couple kickstarters for his movies. They weren’t themselves offensive. It’s just that using a crowdfunding platform which, at the time at least, were mostly for people who had zero access to capital when you’re a multimillionaire with Hollywood connections to capital is a bit gauche.
I threw in $100 for a Zach Braff movie. I got to be an extra (they fed us ribs for lunch), 2 t-shirts, then got 2 tickets for a sneak preview with free drinks and popcorn, and a q&a with Zach and Donald Faison...worth every penny, unlike the poor saps that have $1 million to solar freakin roadways.
I feel the same about companies like Anker's audio branch Soundcore using Kickstarter to prefund/advertise their new tech - safe to say their 'projects' are funded about 20,000%

Are they actually rebooting Scrubs again?
Yes. I think it will be horrible.
S7 was already horrible
If season 7 is the one where the hospital was turned into a school and they all came back - yep, it was awful. I couldn’t even stomach the full first episode before turning it off. Loved the rest of the show though.

Scrubs was a special show. Some times woke and some times a product if it's times. Meaning gay jokes cause guys hug. Super fun and then they hit you with that real real. Sorry Dr Kelso is so mean because he needs to keep this big ship running. It doesn't work out good all the time but he tries.
I liked the later seasons when Dr Cox was in charge and when he went through his alcohol problems. I even like the last season. It was different but it was still a good show.
"where do you think we are?"
Probably one of my all time favorites moments in television.
Came here to say something similar. I always have mixed feelings on Scrubs for similar reasons to you. I genuinely can't go back and rewatch most episodes because they are incredibly dated or insensitive in many respects. The good parts are still good, the great parts are still great, but the bad parts feel really bad IMO, and it really kills a lot of rewatch potential for me, despite having loved watching seasons 1-5 when it was originally airing. It was one of my favorite shows for years.
I can definitely watch older stuff and understand it's a product of its time, but Scrubs in particular has me cringing by 5 minutes into the episode; I can't get through the rest of the episode most of the time. I end up skipping around to watch the scenes I know I like. I ain't got time to sit around watchin' The Todd harass people or Kelso make his usual "wife bad" jokes.
What a soundtrack, though. One of the better soundtracks of any show I've watched.

Scrubs pioneered the Fortnite default dance.
yeah. beyond that, Fortnite ripped off the dance and denied Turk any royalties on it. I think the courts said something like "you can't copyright a few dance moves!"
My favorite scrubs fact is that none of the streaming platforms can get the rights to the indie music Zack Braff shoved into all the final scenes so they replaced them all with generic open source songs which really hurts the quality.
Only for the first four seasons. Rights agreements were different then.
You’ll also find most streaming sites turn the 4:3 into 16:9 by chopping off the top and bottom of the frame.
This is why I have the show on DVD.
I have a 14 year old who loves scrubs, Brooklyn 99 and the office. Im proud dad
Hi proud, I’m not your dad.

I was like "awesome! It was so funny and would be great to see a modern version of it!" And the I found out that it is a canonical continuation of the story and immediately got disappointed.
Hollywood, listen. When something old was really good and you want to make more money off of it, take the idea that made it good and stop reviving the dead just to be surprised that it sucks.
A new scrubs with a completely different set of people and story with just the key idea there would actually be awesome. Just remember how well the last season was accepted 😒
There was no last season, lalala not listening.
The Scrubs reboot is as far away from the OG as the Brady Bunch was from the 90s movie.
Never heard of it until now. I assume this refers to the "2001-2010 American medical comedy-drama" show.
For the record I more or less fit into the late millennial generation.

"OMG, young people exist!?!?!?"
It isn't a reboot it's a sequel
Who has 2 thumbs and doesnt give a crap? This Gen Z boy :3
I never liked this sitcom and prefer the British "Green Wing" instead.

I wish I had the fond memories for this show that others do. My sibling wanted to get into medicine and would binge medical shows at home all the time. This was the first one. A few episodes is fine. But having this run 8 hours a day non-stop just made me hate this show. It’s way too formulaic to binge like that.
