1. I love that show. Especially the janitor and the attorney.

2. It's a great show
I sort of forgotten about it because it seems like every year NBC moves it into a new time slot so I started watching it again in syndication. However the season premiere is on tonight at 9...which is great for me because I usually don't watch anything at 9 on Thursday

3. Because NBC doesn't realize good television when they see it
It's been a great show since day 1, but the geniuses at NBC have jerked it's schedule around so much that no one can find it. It is hands-down the very best sitcom on broadcast television.

The first 4 seasons are out on DVD. Find them, watch them, love them.

10. Amen. The past two years NBC has let it sit in limbo until one of their
"brilliant new shows" eats it hard then they trot out 'Scrubs' as a mid season replacement.

The premiere tonight seemed lethargic but I still love it.

p.s. ABC treats 'Boston Legal' in the same manner.

4. I just "discovered" it, too, a couple of months ago in syndication
In a way, it's better to get a couple of episodes per day like this. I distinctly remember NOT giving it a chance when it first went on, switching away as soon as the title appeared, just from my preconceived bias against medical/legal shows.

This, now, is tops for me. Before this, it was Reno 911. Way down on another level, I also never saw the Drew Carey Show while it was "live". Now, having seen just about every episode while on the treadmill, I like much of it very much, the blue collar sweetness of it, and the progression of the quality is readily evident. If I had been watching the first couple of seasons "live" I would have ditched it forever.

Oh, the wife from Hades on Scrubs is the real life wife of Bill LAWRENCE, the Scrub creator, and was the whassername longtime girlfriend or girl-buddy on Drew CAREY.

8. See what I mean? Just saw the new episode, the ONLY new episode I've ever seen
and it was fairly disappointing. I have NO idea if I'm one or two seasons behind in the syndication version, but the hairdos were weird here and it just didn't seem to have that crackling dialog. Doing the thing week-by-week instead of in big gulps loses it for me.

shows, Earl, The office, Scrubs and 30 rock. I wish they'd put Heros on at 10:00pm and then i could get all my viewing in one night.

6. now THAT is a damn good idea.
i am seriously addicted to Heroes. I get mad everytime it's over. It should be a two hour show.

9. I never liked that show.
Don't really know why. Don't find any of the characters appealing I guess.
