As I first watched "Scrubs" i was hooked after the 2nd episode, this show is great, good humour, charming characters and no "audience laughter" The setting is great, comedy inside a hospital, i don't think this has been there before scrubs. But what really amazed me is the way they try to use a believable story and the only scenes where something goes nuts are in JDs head. Also, they have great guest appearances (MJ Fox, Brendan Fraser) and great emotional episodes.
But everything who set scrubs apart for me as a great comedy kind of got lost with the beginning of season 5, the stories weren't that real anymore and the lines with JDs crazy fantasy and the real story seemed to blur. More and more scrubs became some kind of slapstick parody with just weird daydreams.
For me Season 1-4 are still great and I'll watch those DVDs a lot, but everything from S5 on is not worth a re-watch for me.
