Why is "Scrubs" still on the air? No one watches it. What ad agency is gonna steer their clients ad dollars to shows like these?
Thursday night saw two new episodes of, 30 Rock and Scrubs draw anemic numbers. Young demo wants no part either. If I put "America's Favorite Taser Videos" on NBC on Thursday night I guarantee it outdraws these two stiffs.

What part of "last season" don't you understand? It's leaving after this year no matter what.

Not soon enuff...

I don't get what happened. Scrubs used to get 14 or even 15 million viewers. I guess it's not what it was.

The point of this post was not that it's "Scrubs" last season...we know that...but the fact that this show was on its last "leg" two years ago and tell me why the programming wiz at NBC...with all their charts and graphs...didnt anticipate that this show was going to tank on Thursday nights "this year"..that's right Thursday night..the most coveted evening in network tv generating the highest ad rates. To waste a beautiful time slot on an "over the hill" show is... negligent.

Ok, Scrubs is my favorite show ever, heck I even upload full episodes on YouTube, and its not what it was like the series high was 16-something million viewers and I think this Thursday was probably the series low (4.86). But, people like what they like and thats your opinion that its not good. Its not even cancelled, its ending because of high production cost and lead actor wants to do other things.

I think the series high was higher than that. Continuously it was getting 14-15 million when following Friends.

it's certainly not what it was. i still have hopes that the remainder of the season will pick back up and it will end on a high note. and if nothing else, we'll find out Janitor's name.

What time is Bowling For Dollars on? I love that show!

I used to love Scrubs but the past few seasons have been terrible. I don't watch it and I think 30 Rock is crap. I don't know why people find the show funny.

I'd just like to stick up for Scrubs. It may not be good in the ratings, or even reviews lately, but I still think Scrubs is really good. And also, I'd like to say that 30 Rock is really good aswell. NBC's comedy slate is easily the best of all the networks at the moment and not just Earl and The Office, i'm talking about NBC comedies as a whole.

Hardly. And if this were true, please tell me where the viewers are.

It's is a young skewing show though and critically acclaimed.

I agree. I don't care for these comedies at all. Here's to NBC going back to multi-camera sitcoms next year and holding 30 Rock as midseason filler.
