Andrew McMurtryTV: Scrubs - My Finale
I haven’t blogged in a while but I felt the finale of Scrubs (which is my favourite TV show) deserved one. When you are with a TV show from the beginning, you always feel a little empty when it’s all over. You expect so much from the end, that you will always remember the episode, that sometimes it is a bit disappointing. The departure of John Dorian from Sacred Heart for the final time was not. It was quintessentially Scrubs. It tells it as it is. In reality there is not the big ending. When you leave a workplace, it is not met with great fanfare. You just leave. But what you take with you is the shared experiences you have had with the people you’ve met and touched, and all you have to look forward to is the future.
This is how the show said goodbye:
“Endings are never easy. I always build them up so much in my head they can’t possible live up to my expectations and I just end up disappointed. I’m not even sure it matters to me so much how things end here. I guess it’s because we all want to believe that what we do is very important. That people hang onto our every word. That they care what we think. The truth is you should consider yourself lucky if you even occasionally get to make someone, anyone, feel a little better. After that, it’s all about the people you let into your life.
It’s never good to live in the past too long. As for the future, it didn’t seem so scary anymore. It could be whatever I want it to be.
And who’s to say this isn’t what happens. Who can tell me my fantasies won’t come true…just this once.”
One of the best - well most satisfying - endings to a TV show that you could ever hope to see. The use of Peter Gabriel’s ‘Book of Love’ in the pivotal scene was perfect. The goodbye between JD and Carla and Dr Cox finally saying what he really thinks of JD were also great moments. But the final scene with Zach Braff and Bill Lawrence was the best way to finish it. Simple. Beautiful. Moving. I loved it. I just makes me sad that Zach is leaving and that this could be the end. It’s one of those shows I wish would never end.

It sounds like an awesome episode and I can't wait to see it, but I don't want the show to end.
