Prime Picks
Scrubs (ABC): Finale. J.D. is hoping his final day at Sacred Heart will be all that he wants it to be. Elliot wants her and J.D.’s relationship to move to the next level. Runs one hour. This is most likely the series finale, but since ABC is advertising it as only the “finale” and not being specific as too whether it is a season or a series finale, it seems that there is still a small chance it could be back for a ninth season, but with many a familiar face no longer a part of the show.
