    Yeah I didn’t realize I was asking for these. In fact, thinking about Scrubs I was initially excited but then I truly thought about Scrubs.

    S1 to S3 - genuinely great tv S4 to S5 - gradual decline S6 - out of plotlines S7 - writers strike S8 - everyone is not hot and all the old problems are new, recycle everything S9 - don’t talk about it.

    So, a few good seasons of TV. But that’s how nostalgia works, we think about those first few seasons, not the later ones. Thinking about a reboot now? It won’t be good, it just won’t be.

    So yeah. I think it’s far more likely Hollywood is desperate to keep our eyes on their content for their bottom line and are trying to exploit nostalgia.

        Surprisingly it did. Only in the last season when reese joined the army did I really start feeling like it turned. It sounds like they’re coming back for more of a short run “epilogue” style, instead of a full blown season. I think that’d be better.
