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.

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.

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
