Scrubs.
I fucking loathe Scrubs.
As a long-time fanboy of Scrubs, I must ask: why?
I bet it's Carla. She fucking ruins it for me every time. She's the worst thing to ever happen to that show. *****.
It might just be a case of something that you don't think is very good, but everyone else loves it, so you end up finding it more and more over-rated to the point that you hate it.
All of my friends absolutely adore Scrubs and constantly find the need to quote and reference it. I'm learning to just grin and bear it now, but in the past when I've asked them what is it about Scrubs that they love and they'd reply that it's got "a great sense of humour". I do not find Scrubs funny. From the few episodes I've seen, all the jokes were pathetically lame and so predictable that I was able to say them before the actors could. The only time I've found it funny was when I heard some audio that was apparently form Scrubs and some guy talked his way out of a conversation by singing Safety Dance and a large part of the reason I found that funny was because of an inside joke I have with some people involving that song.
And then there's that "Everything Comes Down to Poo" song, which is nothing more than toilet humour, has an incredibly annoying tune and gets stuck in my head far too easily. And my friends will not stop singing and playing it.
What's more, from what I've seen nothing ever happens until the last 5 minutes of an episode. It's always just people talking to each other and then at the very end, some guy decides to get back with his ex-girlfriend.
In all fairness, I haven't tried watching it from the very first episode (but it's not often you have to with shows like this) and I think I may have tried watching it with a closed mind, as someone told me it was the funniest show ever and I could not fathom this, as it was American and not British.
Also, now that I think about, the characters don't seem all that likable, but I could just be searching for reasons now.
