Scrubs is alright. I like Friends more.

[Yudster]

My opinion about age and children is what ever age you are you have to be a parent, care and nurture your child, with love, boundaries, discipline and rewards, praise and the building of self worth. You can do that at fifteen or fifty. The problem is bad parents, who are so * selfish, self centered and ugly inside that they shouldn't be able to raise a goat let alone a child.

Yeah I know I got * issues, get over it, and I will try too!

You are RIGHT.

Scrubs is alright. I like Friends more.

You are RIGHT.

[Bonanzoid]

You 2 have plummeted in my opinion!

[Yudster]

I like Scrubs, but mostly when things are repeated over and over again ad nauseum I get really irritated. This hasn't happened with Friends, so I conclude that I must love it somehow.........

[MK Chris]

I quite liked the first four or five series of Friends, but then I got bored with it and I certainly can't watch the repeats. However, I could have said the exact same thing as Yudster about Only Fools.

[Sunny So Cal]

You 2 have plummeted in my opinion!

*sob*

Oh! Only Fools. I need to finish!

Does E4 show anything other than Scrubs and Friends repeats?! The only difference is Scrubs also gets repeated to death on Paramount/Comedy Central so it's twice as annoying that you've seen them all so often you could be in them.

Add to that the fact that as Scrubs goes on it tends to go downhill as far as comedy goes...

Although Elliot... humina humina.

Oh Sunny, sometimes you make it just too easy.

I watched and enjoyed the first two series of Scrubs and then somewhere thru the third I suddenly realised I just wasn't finding it funny anymore. Now if I catch any of the repeats I find it irritating. All those moral messages..argh. Friends I still watch the repeats on E4 occasionally if there's nothing else on, and whilst I have seen them a billion times, I can still laugh at them.

[Yudster]

I liked Zach Braff when he was playing a young and emotionally immature doctor and it was a humourous drama series. I agree with Nic, about halfway through season 3 it turned into a faintly moralising sitcom, and simply wasn't as good any more. I can still watch it but the first two seasons were by far the best.

I'm the complete opposite, because I haven't watched Series 6 & 7 properly or Series 8 at all, quite a bit of it is new for me.

Friends I used to think was great but should have really ended with Series 6, after that it became such a parody of itself it was unreal (Joey became incredibly thick, to the point where it became unbelievable, even with a sitcom and Monica was too OTT by the end).

One good thing about Scrubs is that I don't dislike any of the main cast at all (which is a rarity for any sitcom) and thankfully Janitor & Dr Cox will be back in Series 9.

Oh and to add to Mukhi's comments for Elliot I'd also say the same for Carla

[Yudster]

Oh, and I'd do Dr Cox any time.

[Bonanzoid]

Meh, as the series progress Jordan gets faker. In series 1 and 2 she was stunning, but not now.

I agree with Johnny, Carla is amazing. Her lips are ruddy amaaaaazing.

Yeah me & my brother commented on this when watching an a few episodes from series 2 & then a few from series 6. I don't think she is as "fake looking" as that in real life, it's just that they make her up like that as a running joke about her constantly getting plastic surgery (remember the episode where her newly injected lips rapidly expanded due to her being stuck in a room that had the heating turned up high)

I think I prefer Carla to Elliot as well, amazingly Judy Reyes (who plays Carla) is a few years older than she looks, I think she's supposed to be in her mid 30's in this (which is what I would have guessed her ageto be 33-35) but shes actually 41. Then again Nigella Lawson looks amazing & she's 49.

Oh for God's sake. How? Why? Shit! In between you and Munki I'm afraid to say anything anymore. Did they pump something into your drinking water in Scotland when you were growing up? Couple of little pervs.

[Boboff]

They Love you, thats why they read innuendo into everything you type, they like your brestickles best.

[Zoot]

I've only actually sat down and watched a couple of scrubs episodes all the way through but it's on everyday when I come home from work, and there have been times where I found it really funny. There was a great bit the other week when the old doctor ( I forget his name) found he could fire somebody was just walked around with a huge grin on his face not speaking. I found that hilarious. And a bit a few days ago when the two main characters were playing space invaders with water bombs and members of staff in the hospital carpark.

I tell a good story don't I?

Mrs Zoot has always been into Friends so I've made an effort to actually watch it. Yes, at times it's cheesy as hell, self-absorbed and often really silly, but it's very funny and there are some genius bits in it.

[jocky85]

My sister has an unhealthy obsession with Scrubs - you can go into her room at any point and find the boxset on. Although currently it's been replaced by Sex and the City! I don't think I've watched an entire episode of Scrubs, ever.

Next up on constant repeat - ER on More4

[Yudster]

I absolutely lived ER when it started, and I reckon I watched the first few seasons religiously - but once the last of the original cast drifted away and it turned more into a soap opera than a gritty medical drama, I lost interest.

[Yudster]

And I meant "loved". Even I'm not that sad.

[jocky85]

I was the opposite, although (no offence meant) I think I was too young for the really early episodes so I would love to see them again. I did watch from the days of Greene and Corday etc, so I suppose quite early on. How long was Clooney in it? I remember seeing him and Greene go on a road trip but was that just a return couple of episodes?

Maybe that's what happens when you can stockpile it. Keep it in the those lochs and reservoirs and it goes funny.

That bit's really funny, that's why I love Scrubs, it's just mad enough at times to get away with stuff like that.

I did have to admire Michael J Fox's appearance in Scrubs, sending up his Parkinsons as an OCD.

I did have to admire Michael J Fox's appearance in Scrubs, sending up his Parkinsons as an OCD.

I don't think that was what he was doing though - he only films when his Parkinsons is under control and the tremors aren't noticeable, so I don't think he'd send it up. But the characterization (see, I used a "z"!) and the portrayal of OCD was probably tailored to fit his physical condition. I thought it was a great performance too, but I don't think it was an attempt by to send up serious issue like Parkinsons. I really don't think he would work as hard and as seriously as he does campaigning for new reasearch and treatments if he was then going to make light of it.
