Chicago Tribune Maureen Ryan

This year, there’s much more of the loopy, creative humor that its fans have come to know and love.

Hollywood Reporter Ray Richmond

The show hits the ground in midseason form after eight months and one change of venue, integrating a new crop of interns with seamless aplomb and again demonstrating how to fuse dramatic elements into a sitcom without breaking a sweat.

Newark Star-Ledger Alan Sepinwall

The first two ABC episodes of Scrubs, premiering back-to-back tomorrow night, more closely resemble the series in its marvelous early seasons, and suggest that Braff's victory lap will be a memorable one.

Rest easy. Scrubs is just fine (with all cast members, except Jenkins, back), though the opening episode is superior to the follow-up.

One of the best episodes they've had in a while, and that's saying something. The same quirkiness that they had on NBC; I bet NBC is regretting letting this get away from them.

Trey K.h gave it a9:
So far this season has remained consistent with what made us laugh and cry over all the previous seasons. The second episode of season 8 is one of the best ever.

I am one of the fans who has followed through every time slot change. I have always loved the show, however, I felt that last season it was loosing some of it's great humor. When NBC decided to cancel it, I thought it was a fine decision to let it go out on top. Having watched the two new episodes, I feel the same way I did last season. It's above average, and better than most television available now...but still not nearly as good as it has been in the past. I will watch it because of that, but I honestly wish it would have ended last season. More than a few jokes in the first two episodes fell flat- and that's not normally the case with this show.

I am a HUGE Scrubs fan so my rating may be a little biased. While it was the funniest episode(s) ever -I love back to back new episodes- it picked it just where they left off- very funny. Let me end by saying... "May your mushrooms always be sauteed & your onions grilled."

Painfully unfunny show. I caught the season premiere last night and was reassured that this show blows.
