Let's get some original ideas in television.

That's honestly surprising. She hasn't done anything with scrubs since the end of season 8. It honestly seemed like she didn't like them or something
She was always billed lowest, and generally de-emphasized in marketing materials despite having the third or fourth most screentime depending on the season (After JD and Cox, and later Turk after season 4).
They also kind of made her out to be a pain in the ass with little redeeming qualities over the years.
Maybe the writers didn't like her as a character. She was usually the "straight man" to JD and Turk goofing off. There was the love triangle with Cox, but that fizzled and went nowhere. She sort of became best friends with Elliot, but they didn't seem to have any genuine chemistry or shared interests, so it always seemed forced.
She did kind of exist just to make Turk's life annoying, especially in later seasons. They had a very lopsided relationship.
I still want Eliza Coupe back as Denise!
What about the janitor?
i think i was the only one who loved med school and want that to continue instead of scrubs proper :(
I dont think it was bad. But it definitely should have been a proper spinoff doing its own thing, rather than just trying to keep Scrubs limping on.
It should have been a spinoff series. If I remember correctly, they creator made it a new season so he could keep the staff working during the writer's strike.
I did think it was good for what it is.
It absolutely could have been it's own great thing. Whenever I rewatch I have to take a big break between the two to try to make it feel as separate as possible
Yep. As a spinoff it would’ve been fine. As a season of Scrubs, it was terrible.
With rewatches, I always pause after the eighth season and come back for the ninth as a spinoff.
I was happy about her not being a part of it. She was basically the buzzkill character most of the time. Sure she kept things grounded, but I never watch Scrubs for groundedness.
JD... Dorian? The D stands for Dorian... wouldn't it at least be John "JD" Dorian?
