What to Know

Critics Consensus

With symptoms like an influx of rookie cast members that never gel into a watchable ensemble and a comedic sensibility that feels terminally tired, the diagnosis is that creator Bill Lawrence and co. should have hung up their Scrubs a year earlier.

Scrubs is pushing the irritation envelope as it returns from the near dead in a revised form. Go to Full Review Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 12/01/2009
At this point, Scrubs has turned its original style into a formula; the fantasy sequences are more predictable, the earnest denouements are automatic. It's a good formula, but one that's no longer vibrant. Go to Full Review Mike Hale New York Times 12/01/2009
The jokes don't catch fire in Tuesday night's opener, but by the second episode things are starting to click. Go to Full Review Scotsman Staff Scotsman 11/08/2019
It wants to be something more profound than a cheesy sitcom, but everything's on the surface. Go to Full Review Eric Hochberger TV Fanatic 11/07/2019
4.0/5.0
Saying goodbye to Scrubs for the third time was not nearly as hard as the first two times. And that's not to say we haven't been enjoying season nine, aka Scrubs med school, because once this series reboot found its stride, it's been good. Go to Full Review Will Harris Bullz-Eye.com 10/31/2019
3.5/5
I'm with [Bill] Lawrence: as far as I'm concerned, Scrubs ended with Season Eight. Looking at Season Nine as a whole, I'd have to say that he didn't succeed as well as he might've hoped. But, then again, I actually kind of liked "After M*A*S*H." Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stanm M. @Stanmy Jan 20 just poorly thought out, should have been a spin-off. See more Spicy B @HotMustard 03/20/2024 Sigh. Excited to see our most beloved characters again. Sad they weren't stars of this season and the baton of perfect hilarity + dramatic chemistry wasn't succesfully passed on as smoothly as a true fan could've hoped for. See more K L 01/25/2023 The site seems to be broken. There was no 9th season of Scrubs. Scrubs ended after its phenomenal 8th season. See more Krzysztof P 08/20/2022 Świetny humor, który dzisiaj może być uważany za rasistowski/(dowolny przedrostek)fobiczny. S8 to pożegnanie z bohaterami i serialem. S9 inny, nieco słabszy See more 05/23/2021 Has potential, and could have been refined over time to help the audience through transition. The score didn't say it's a bad show, but approaches can be tough online sometimes. See more 12/07/2020 I kind of enjoy the mash of new characters. Its not the classic like the past seasons. But still likeable. See more Read all reviews
