YES!

I own the season 1, 2, and 3 dvds!

EDIT: When I read your title "Best Show Ever", I thought 'hmm, well obviously that's scrubs, but nobody seems to understand...'. I highlight over the title and it says "They brought it onto Commedy Central two times a day"... I am like... *blank stare*. Open the thread and read "I love Dr. Cox"... Woot

EDIT: I loved this

It is a pretty funny show, which is expected of a best show ever, but it could be funnier for a best show ever. I like to watch it if it is on at a time when I have nothing to do. Yeah, I don't watch it very much. :biggrin:
 
WHAT SHOW? I'm at work and can't watch youtube here.

They're talking about Scrubs.

Why, the best show of course!
 
That would be "The Dinosaurs", especially the episode where they throw the grandmother over the cliff and he replays the video in slow motion.
 
Gotta love scrubs.

It is both funny and poignant. If it were simply a slapstick comedy, it wouldn't score so high.

You guys aren't the first to claim Scrubs is funny, but I still just don't see it. I think it's pretty lame and forced. Amusing enough for a season as a bit of a thumbing of the nose at the other more dramatic medical themed shows, but it quickly got boring because it's the same tired old jokes episode after episode.

The last season wasn't as good as the previous ones. I think season 2 or 3 was my favorite...hmm

I like Scrubs, but it's no Best Show Ever. That title goes to Arrested Development.

Maybe you are too young to have yet experienced some of the situations which occur in Scrubs, or don't appreciate certain aspects yet. Now, I'm also young (17 in 6 days!), but I've lived long enough to relate to sooo much of the show. Makes things even funnier most of the time :smile: :smile:

lol, I remember watching Seinfeld a few years ago and I hated it. Now, I love it :!)

EDIT: What's wrong with you and MB anyway :-p

Yeah, that's it, I'm too young. :rolleyes: :smile: What sort of place do you live in that you can relate to the show?!

Great show. The first season was pure genius.

I'll jump on the "I Don't See Why People Think Scrubs is Funny" bandwagon.

That said, the best show ever is obviously House.

I think Nature puts on some of the best shows, especially in the sky during a storm.

I've always liked time lapse movies/videos -
