It's officially official now.

Shame it's gone but I think the time was right.

Overdue maybe. The show had passed its prime before JD left.

That kinda sucks, I was just warming to the new cast

Long overdue.
First few seasons were great, but all good things...

Marky · 16 May 2010 at 02:17

I thought this was pretty much confirmed anyway by Zach Braff a few months ago =\

I didn't enjoy the new cast at all

They should have ended at Season 8 in my opinion

I finished watching half way through season 7, only because I didn't have time to watch the rest. I thought they finished at the end of it, didn't realise they had another 2(?) series, the last much have been odd with different characters!

Well overdue, more suprised by Flash Forward than any of the other shows mentioned.

Chris1712 · 16 May 2010 at 02:34

Can't believe Flashforward gets canned, but V gets renewed? lawl.

I'm just hoping Community and Modern Family stay, I'm pretty sure they are.

So what's the next big thing?

Very strange decision to can Flashforward without having anything better on roster. It was quite obvious to everyone the viewing figures for it were affected mostly by gaping hole of a mid season break, which is, for shows with long story arc - a killer - this is why most of long story arc shows, such as Lost were moved to no_of_episodes+2 weeks seasons, instead of usual 12 weeks with 2 breaks + 14 weeks reruns + 12 weeks with 2 breaks schedule. Flashforward had huuuuuuuge syndication potential. Very stupid decision, tbh.

Anyone know if there are any new TV series coming out that look any good?

Seems a lot are finishing but cant see any new ones on the horizon

logix42p · 16 May 2010 at 09:40

this was only a matter of time after ZB left

Margaret · 16 May 2010 at 09:42

Scrubs has been crap since season five, really no loss....

V deserved a renewal more than FlashForward to be fair, it seems to be setting up a decent story with a satisfying conclusion. FlashForward just seemed oddly strung together - then again the first season was only supposed to be 13 or so episodes.

Shamikebab · 16 May 2010 at 10:11

good riddance, should have happened 3 or 4 seasons. I watched the first 5 of this season and it was just embarrassing. No show deserves to fade out like that.

avec · 16 May 2010 at 11:21

It was certainly time for Scrubs to go I think, it wasn't that good in recent years anyway.

csmager · 16 May 2010 at 11:43

Was a huge mistake to carry on after nearly everyone (including the creator) left after Season 8. They should have left it there.

Zach Braff IS scrubs.

Shouldn't have even attempted to continue without him.

Best TV series ever though, while it lasted.

I'm one of the few that disagrees. He actually annoyed me TBH.

I thought the best character was cox, he was just awesome sauce.

TheCenturion · 16 May 2010 at 13:25

I thought this was announced last month or so?

Season 9 was awful, the rest was awesome, imo

Alexrose1uk · 16 May 2010 at 13:29

Agreed, for me the series really died with Season 8, hell it even had an extended final episode. Starting again with a new cast essentially meant it wasn't really Scrubs any longer.

Even though the later seasons were not as great, it was still a good series through its 8 season run, and it'll be missed in that form.
