And to prove it, I shall weigh in on the Scrubs debate that is raging out there today.
Last night's season (and Zach Braff) finale sure did play out like a series finale, complete with dozens of past guest star appearances (Laverne! Snoop Dogg Attending! Tasty Coma Wife!), an almost reveal of the The Janitor's name and a home-movie-style glimpse into what could be the future for the characters (much of which was reflected on J.D.'s face, which was a super cool effect). Throw in a Peter Gabriel cover of "The Book of Love" by the Magnetic Fields and touching moments between Carla, Turk, J.D. and Elliott, and we have ourselves the perfect ending to a series that has a special place in my heart.
I can't imagine it any other way, and don't really want to. How could they possibly do the show without J.D.? He's the centerpiece, narrator, protagonist and everyman of the show. Plus, he's Zach Braff. *Swoon* I'm hoping they don't pull a "Saved by the Bell: The New Class" on us and hope we continue watching even though Kelly, Slater, Zack and Lisa have been replaced with a bunch of no-names and Screech on steriods.
What do you think? Will ABC beat this dead horse as it rides a motorcycle over a tank of sharks or will they let the characters live on in syndication?
