I dont watch crap aka: Scrubs

malkin · #1 07-20-2010, 12:36 AM

I saw an advertisement on tv the other day about Scrubs. It's catchphrase was: "if you aren't laughing then you must be dead." Well i guess all of the sane people in the world are dead then.
If you find this show funny, please, turn off the tv and go outside. I'm sure you will all get a kick out of seeing the grass grow and such. Maybe chase cars down the highway...
My ideas of quality shows are: Seinfeld, Frasier, Two and a Half Men, Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, and The Red Green Show.

Scrubs is all right. Better than some of those you listed for sure. My favorites including alraedy canceled/finished series:

Drama:

LOST, Dexter, The Wire, Oz, Six Feet Under, Twin Peaks, Chuck

Comedy:

Seinfeld, The Simpsons, Futurama, HIMYM, The Office, Arrested Development

I think The Office is about to be finished or cancelled. With Steve Carell (the only good and accomplished actor in the cast) leaving I think it will be hard for them to keep up ratings. Just look at That 70s Show...

silent skies · #4 07-20-2010, 01:03 AM

The only things I watch these days are Burn Notice, Royal Pains, Doctor Who & NCIS.

Jayfourke · #5 07-20-2010, 01:15 AM

It used to be good. And Friends is awesome.

Also, you want funny, you need old English comedy, like Blackadder, Fawlty Towers, that kind of stuff. <3

Burn Notice is amazing.

iPlane · #7 07-20-2010, 02:03 AM

Dr. Who! Still watching it, but man do I miss David Tennant.

Also watching; House, Warehouse 13, Top Chef, Deadliest Warrior, and Leverage.

EDIT - Also started Haven, not sure if it will stay on the DVR record list tho.

The Game · #8 07-20-2010, 02:52 AM

Haven looks OK.. All I watch now days is the simpsons, two and a half men, star trek and M.A.S.H.

Good Eats with ALTON BROWN on food network is pretty epic

Honestly, insulting Scrubs and then saying Two and a Half Men is a quality show? Appalling. Absolutely appalling.

Same, but the new stuff is good.

Except for that Dalek episode. That was fail.

duck · #13 07-20-2010, 05:39 AM

Scrubs used to be awesome. I haven't seen the new ones without the old cast.

Everybody loves Raymond is pretty meh, Two and a half men is probably the worst show ever created.

I can think of two reasons Giada deLaurentis's show is better...

But yeah, Good Eats is awesome.

New Scrubs is bad. First four seasons were good though. That's generally true for most shows I think. Any show with more than 4 seasons goes downhill after that. Take The Wire for example. Probably one of the best shows ever made and s5 was the worst.

Evan20000 · #16 07-20-2010, 08:25 AM

Simpsons managed to make it to S9 before getting shakey I think. While this doesn't mean that there aren't good episodes past that, the show overall started falling off track. But given the subjective nature of this topic, to each his own.

Ok Scrubs is a stupid funny (if that) not a funny funny show. All of the jokes are what toddlers make and laugh at. Seriously, "Why didn't the skeleton go to the party?" "Because he had nobody to go with." Puh-lease

You'll have to forgive malkin here, he's from Barcelona.

mlopes · #22 07-20-2010, 05:13 PM

If you liked Arrested Development, try Modern Family and Better Off Ted, they're both great and I read somewhere that some of their material is written by the guys who wrote Arrested Development.

I haven't started seeing it but it seems that the new series Louie is very good. You can see a scene starring Louis CK and Rick Gervais:

Next Generation re-runs and NCIS fill up the entirety of my TV watching these days.

EDIT: Not NCIS LA, that **** is terrible.

DiogenesDog · #25 07-20-2010, 07:09 PM

I can't believe someone was so filled with hatred for Scrubs that it spilled over into the Alt forum. SUCH PASSION!

malakas · #26 07-20-2010, 08:00 PM

Allow me to articulate my feelings on the show Scrubs in the form of a Haiku.

Sarah Chalke is hot
I'd hit that and wreck that chick
Sarah, call me babe

End of discussion; thread closed.

MajorPayne257 · #27 07-20-2010, 09:11 PM

Arrested Development, Modern Family, Entourage, Weeds, Scrubs (old), Family Guy, The Office, and a couple others.

If you loved Arrested Development, you'll love Modern Family. Both shows were/are sooooo amazing. Entourage is epic because it's epic. Ari Gold = the ****. If you like weed then you'll like Weeds. If you don't like weed then you'll still like Weeds. Scrubs was absolutely hilarious. Family Guy...standard. And there's no reason to not like The Office.

Void · #28 07-21-2010, 02:02 PM

Wow such garbage y'all are watching.

24, Firefly, Californication, Entourage, Death Note etc.

You are crap. Death Note was perfect all the way through, maybe an episode or two wasn't top notch but a masterpiece like this can't be denied.

Wolf don't ever even say those two in the same sentence, Wipeout is monumentally better.
