Though maybe not as good as it was a couple of years ago, Scrubs is one of those shows that has my enduring affection.
It is an ensemble cast with Zach Braff as JD in the lead. But the performances around him are great, from Sarah Chalke (candidate for top 5) to John McGinely, all the actors are funny and yet can have truly touching performances too.
And that is one great thing about this show, it can transport you to the funniest of places, and then sober you up showing you death and injury and the pain coming form that.
Scrubs is the godfather to all the single camera quirky comedies that have come after, Arrested Development, 30 Rock and the The Office. It led the way and allowed for comedies to be oout of the norm. I will be looking forward to its final season on ABC where it will go out with a plan...as it should.
