"The opening half-hour strains to get the ball rolling, clumsily setting up a premise that seems a little cheap: Lawrence has implied that the docs were always teaching classes while also administering to their patients all along and that the show never focused on it. It’s as if the show picked everything up and moved to the office down the hall. And though it seems to have been the intention all along to keep the same location, starting over would have been more sensible, and it wouldn’t feel like Scrubs was constructing extensions out of thin air to introduce characters that barely resonate.
And though I will admit to having intermittently loved and loathed the show over its run, I agree with weary Scrubs fans that the finale was a comfortable resting place for the series. But I do not see this new season as a betrayal, but rather an unfortunate unwillingness to let the ride come to an end. It plays heavily from the Scrubs playbook, replete with fantastical flashbacks, slightly over-the-head pop culture references, and heartfelt, message-y montages. But instead of springing forward with a renewed energy, this Scrubs feels tired – even Dr. Cox’s usually brilliantly scathing staccato takedowns sound winded.
Perhaps by the time J.D. departs (Braff is only committed to six episodes), this new Scrubs will have fleshed out its new cast beyond their casting descriptions and maybe even settled into a format that better suits it than rehashing the Scrubs of old. There’s some hope – J.D. opines: “Part of me hates how familiar this seems. I hope I can find a way to make this all feel new.” Me too."
