Scrubs Saves NBC Thursday from Becoming Obsolete

Scrubs on Thursday nights has been a routine for myself and my husband since the show began. Originally, we were watching other things, and simply left the television on NBC because it was easier than changing the channel, but we were quickly drawn in to the delightful show's world where hospital care can be funny as well as serious, where doctors aren't perfect, and where patients can be annoying or cute, depending on the show.

The cast of characters is superlative, and the mix of tear-jerking drama and side-splitting laughter is really above and beyond any other television show out there. I cannot say enough good things about the writing on this show. The actors bring it to life, but without the good scripts to give their characters depth, it would not be as good a show as it is.
