Scrubs: ABC's comedy revival Scrubs returned recently for its second season (or eleventh overall), and the results were pretty mixed. While its 0.36/0.29 premiere rating represents a solid performance overall, both ratings marked a new series low for the revival run, which had dipped to a 0.39 at its weakest point in season one.

Something that does not bode very well for Scrubs is its streaming performance, where it also looks similar to Shifting Gears. Its premiere did just OK, peaking at #6 on Hulu and staying on the chart for the first five days after its premiere. The second episode, however, already saw major slippage, down to just a #13 peak and one single day on the chart. That did not prove to be fatal for Shifting Gears, which performed similarly, but it's a warning sign. Scrubs performed better than this last season, and it's now showing signs of losing steam on both linear TV and on streaming.

I didn’t even realize it was airing until well after it started airing. I don’t see many ads in my daily life, but that number isn’t zero. And I’m a huge Scrubs fan.

Yeah, I heard a while back that a reboot was considered, not that it was airing, let alone its 2nd season.

I really liked the first season back. It had some weak episodes but overall it was very good. Second, dunno yet.

Scrubs was a product of it's time. Most of it's original viewers are cold in the ground.

Cold in the ground? It's not the fucking Andy Griffith show.

5/6 of the regular watchers I knew are dead. It's just my little anecdote.

Nathan, you cannot keep killing people that have watched the original Scrubs series just so you can drop this statistic into random discussions!

5/7

Same, I just realized now that the second season is airing. I thought the first season of the reboot did a really good job in going with the times and mixing in both new and old characters.
