I’ve been waiting to watch the scrubs reboot until my son was visiting and we could watch some of it together. We watched the first four episodes last night and I would say we’re shocked at how much they did not suck and actually were good. Shocked only I suppose because of how not good the final season had been. Anyone who’s even thinking about rebooting an old series should study this frame by frame internalize how to keep the tone and still advanced the story.
