This season is short but great. Having said that I have to say that the series is NOT over. It is moving to ABC for season 8. I keep seeing reviews where it says series ended with season 7. Not true. It just ended its run on NBC. ABC picked it up for 18 episodes for season 8. Just had to clear that up.

...because with NBC constantly preempting it and showing it at different times, I think I saw maybe two episodes from this season. I never knew when it was on. So it's 11 episodes. It's still Scrubs and even bad Scrubs is better than 99% of what's on tv right now. Can't wait for season 8!

I'm a long time fan of Scrubs. I own every season on DVD so far. I'm going to stick with the series till the end.

That being said, Season 7 wasn't all that good. Some episodes were great, but the low points of the season(most notably the episode that was aired as the series finale) were among the worst episodes in the entire series. A big problem with this season was with the network, rather than the show, as episodes were aired out of order, leading to continuity being all kinds of wrecked. Hopefully this is corrected for the DVD set, but there were a lot of other issues that stop this from being a great season.

I'm a huge fan of Scrubs and have every Season on DVD. This is one of my favorite shows. Unfortunately, I was a little disappointed with Season 7. A number of characters went through a personality change. The deceased nurse Laverne was brought back as nurse Shirley. JD's insecurity gave way to a focus on his immaturity. Dr. Cox softened up and no longer intimidated the other doctors (except when choosing not to stick up for Dr. Kelso). The Janitor lost his mystique, becoming more human and vulnerable. The Todd became even more of a buffoon. Dr. Kelso was relegated to one liners from the background and then eventually written out of the show. Jordan developed into a whiny distraction. A new intern - Josephine - was added as a truly annoying, one-dimensional character.

The good news: Background characters like Doug, Ted, Snoop Dog Attending, and Dr. Beardface were more relevant to the story lines. The fairy tale episode was a good change of pace. (But did it really need to end on a sad note?). Plus, there were some great one-liners and dream sequences, as usual.

Overall, season 7 was still pretty decent; it just doesn't stack up to the quality of past seasons.

We're big, big scrubs fans - own all previous seasons, have watched them 3 times through. But the seventh season was pretty disappointing, not worth owning, not really worth watching. Even the fairy tale episode was nothing compared to previous seasons' episodes. Borrow this season from the library or from a friend, if you didn't see it on TV. I'd skip purchasing it.

I love this show and have enjoyed it every season. Season six they seemed to try a couple of new tricks, some I thought were great, some not so much, but Season 7 really got back to their roots. What can I say I am a true "Scrubs" fan owning every season except Season 8 (which I plan to purchase shortly), and have watched them numerous times. Looking forward to watching Season 8 to see what happens after the season 7 finale. Gotta love Coxy.

So, Scrubs was the only tv show that I actually kept up with. It was funny, heart warming, had great actors doing great work, it had wonderful stories and fantastic cinematic qualities... This season didn't quite make it in the greatness that was once Scrubs. Although it was still pretty damn good, I had higher expectations. The writer's strike caused continuity issues in the story line and some poor decisions were made.

I was quite disappointed to find out that this season had only half the episodes the others had. It seems like it may have run its course. Sad, because I love the series but this is by far the least fav.

I love these movies watch them every night. I start from season one and go to season nine over aND OVER AGIAN. Great quailty used

For a minute there, I thought that I brought a "bargain basement" version of 'Scrubs - Season 7' because there's only eleven episodes, but after reading the other reviews (plus being reminded about the writers strike), it makes perfect sense. My brief thoughts on the show? Damn Good Stuff; almost choked in laughter while looking at the 'Space Invaders' episode. Can't wait to see season 8.
