Everything about Season Six is bigger — the comedic ideas are broader, the dramatic beats are bolder, and the narrative arcs have increased in prominence. This is because Scrubs thought this could be its final season — NBC had left it off the fall schedule for two years in a row, Zach Braff’s contract was ending, and there were rumblings that the network didn’t want to continue making money for a rival (ABC, which owned the show). Accordingly, this season was conceived — from premiere to finale — as a potential swan song (just in case!), and it wasn’t until Six wrapped that a renewal officially came.
