But will it really be the finale? Hmmm. . .

I hope it is the finale. I think too much would be compromised if the show comes back, including limited involvement by Bill Lawrence and some of the leading actors on the show.

"You smell like a father figure."

I think I'm gonna cry.

I am looking forward to it. I, too, hope it is the finale. I wouldn't mind some sort of spinoff. But, I really hope "My Finale" actually IS the Scrubs finale. I have always hoped Scrubs would be given a proper send off. Hopefully this is it.

Guest starring list looks fun. Another hour to go before it airs here.

OH MAN!

That was beautiful. That's how sitcoms should end. That montage/clip/outake/wrap bit was perfect after a great ending.

It better be a series finale now.

I don't mind a spin off. But that was a great ending for [Scrubs].

Wow.just.wow!

I really do hope this is the finale, b/c what a way to go out, but I do trust Bill and his team in whatever they do.

Even if this show doesn't get love from the Emmy, which which would be a crime, I am so appreciative as a fan that a show took the time and gave the fans one hell of a finale season.

So as a fan I would like to thank everyone at the Scrubs team for doing that.

So glad to see the good reviews. I can't wait to watch tomorrow!!!

I thought the penultimate was excellent, so it will be fun and sad to see this episode.

Yes, I thought that last night's episode was wonderful.

Glad to hear you all liked the finale. Now I am really looking forward to it. I think I will have to wait until 10 or 11pm tonight when my roommate gets home. So glad to have Tivo.

Wow, I am so excited that you all liked it so much!

That was wonderful. Funny, sappy, I cried, I laughed, I loved it. A nice way to end the show. I loved it for 8 seasons, I want to remember it the way it ended. I really hope it doesn't go on as [Scrubs]. If they want to call it something different, with a new cast, fine. But let [Scrubs] rest in peace with this finale.

Yes, I thought tonight was a beautiful farewell, but it was exactly that, a farewell. This isn't an open ending where you could just pick up in season nine. This was closure. The parade of former guest stars and recurring players. The future home movies. The outtakes and extras after the ending. This is a closed book. A ninth season of this show invalidates this. I want to remember the show this way, not as a compromised version to wring for syndication bucks out of the deal.

I remember seeing previews for the pilot of "Scrubs," NBC advertised the hell out of it, and thinking it was gonna last 6 eppys. I watched anyway and was so glad I was wrong. I loved "Scrubs" long before it was popular to be a fan and I think the show never ever got its due; thank you Arrested Development and NBC.

This was a fitting ending to a show that needs to end. It's time, and as a fan, I fine with closing the book on the series.

A stunningly beautiful (and metaphoric) photograph of eight years. Wonderfully done. Excuse me while i find some tissue to wipe my eyes a bit..

Sigh.

Great Episode. Very Much like I felt after Frasier Final. Class and with in the famework of th show feel and chacters.


A +++++

One hell of a series finale!!! The jokes were outrageous as ever and the dramatic moments were very moving and (almost...I'm tough, haha) brought a tear to my eye. The most emotional (and best) moments of tonight's episode were the scene with J.D. and Carla and then the final scene where we get to see J.D.'s vision of the future. I can't believe Scrubs is over!!! But as others here have said, there is no way Scrubs is coming back. This was a SERIES FINALE in everyway possible and a damn fine one at that!

BTW..."My Finale" Should definitely be nominated for Writing and Directing and also serve as Zach Braff's tape if he is to get a farewell nomination this year. Hopefully with ABC's other comedies faltering, they can get a campaign up and going to get Scrubs nominated for Comedy Series again for their final year!

J.D.'s flash forward to how he would like his life to turn out was surprisingly moving. It was a wonderful way to end the series. A terrific finale.

I'm still moved by last nights eppy.

I felt a lot of this was Scrubs at its overly sentimental worst but there were some really funny moments. The Merry X-mas Perry shirts, JD fainting and hugging Perry during the fantasy future. The scene with the janitors real name was funny.

I love that they kept it simple. Not too many b-storylines, the new characters kept to a minimum.

Maybe the flash-forward was too oversentimental (kind of a gooey, comedic take on Six Feet Under's finale if you ask me) but it went out exactly as the show deserved to. I look forward to watching the last 5 minutes again.
