Poor scurbs. They should of never brought it back.
Who watches T.V much this time of year.I hope when MP returns that they can start to garner some better ratings.It's gotta good.
Wtf does the gym have to do with tv ratings lol geez if you dont like it dont watch it. Yea i turned off Scrubs last night. I just cant watch it anymore. I watch mostly cable tv now anyways. Its pretty funny though that cbs still gets pretty good ratings even for repeats yet everything else bombs when it repeats. Even the *glorious* Melrose Place bombed in the ratings as a repeat. Wait it never got good ratings in the first place lol.

How about those ratings for CBS with reruns. I can't believe that. Most shows would be doing flips to get those numbers for new episodes let alone reruns.
