The future of Scrubs
seemed a little iffy earlier this season, when NBC shelved it until after the New Year. Scrubs creator Bill
Lawrence and star Zach Braff talked a
lot about how the entire staff went whole
hog because they thought this might be the last season, and how they could end up on ABC if NBC doesn't want them anymore. He sort-of
says it in this New
York Times article, but Bill Lawrence flat-out told E! that he's confident
Scrubs will have a season six, whether it's on NBC or ABC. And, it's probably not leaving NBC any time
soon.Scrubs' ratings have been admirable so far this season (since new episodes started airing in January). Until American Idol started, it was averaging 8 million viewers a night. Those numbers are down, but still impressive. And, Scrubs is doing well that that key demographic: 18-49 viewers.
I guess Scrubs will be around long enough for us to find out the name of Turk and Carla's baby!

No problem Anna!
Scrubs has been great this season, but maybe the 6th Season should be its last? After Carla and Turk having a baby, I'm not really sure where else it could go. Maybe the birth episode could be the last in the series? That would also give Zach Braff some more time to work on his movies!

Season 6 could be the last, it could wrap up licely - but they are still contracted for 7, so that would be easy enough.
I would rather Scrubs than Garden State any day!
