"Scrubs" will be moving to ABC in 2009. Many people thought the show was canceled after the NBC finale in May, but ABC announced it would carry the show starting in 2009. For those who have yet to see the show, it's good, but beware of the sexual content. That's the reason why the show used to be rated TV-14 on NBC. When the show aired it's final episodes on NBC, and moved from 9:30 to 8:30, it started becoming rated TV-PG. Now, since all ABC sitcoms are rated TV-PG, I would assume that "Scrubs" would keep the TV-PG rating when it moves to ABC next year. Here's my ratings for the show: all episodes before the last NBC episodes--"pause" for 15+; the last NBC episodes--"pause" for 13+.
Not appropriate for kids under 15. The show is entertaining. However, tonight, my daughter was watching the show, and I stepped out of the room. Later, she asked me what "an organism" is. She told me that she heard the word on Scrubs. Therefore, I strongly caution parents to think twice before their kids watch the show &/or to watch the show with their kids.
Not only had Scrubs managed to make us laugh for six long series, it's increasingly surreal moments still mantaining their freshness but it's also got sentimentality. The actors are all a treat to watch - hell, even the sub-characters like Ted the stressed depressant and Todd the sexually confused goofball are all great - I don't think there is one character in Scrubs, temporary or no, that I haven't liked.
Every new episode still promises the same quality writing providing unexpected belly laughs around every plotline and keeping you hungry for each new episode.
Scrubs is one of the best things to happen to American comedy in years and will hopefully be running for years to come.
Yes, it's a comedy, but it's not particularly funny...especially for children under age 15 (or 16). I don't think its adult situations are appropriate for children.
This is a funny show. Some jokes may go over kids' heads, but there's nothing nasty about this show. Just sheer goofiness, in my opinion. It's safe to watch in front of kids, I think.
It's a funny version of er. There is some sex in there but it isnt a real big deal. I love their goofy antics! OH and language isnt bad either. Elliot(one main charecter always says things like frick (for the f word) and for sexual terms she always pressures them that she can only hear things like icky sticky.
Protecting kids from little things such as "suggestive themes" is just nonsense. You can protect them at home but not in the real world. IT'S EVERYWHERE! Scrubs is a fantastic show that demonstrates the power of trust, camaraderie, and even some moral values stuck in there. I'd suggest it to anyone!
