I've (slowly) been rewatching it and there's definitely moments where I'm wincing at some stuff. But what I find most painful is just how much I kind of hate J.D. He's such an asshole so often! I brought this up to my husband, who loves the show, and he said that watching JD grow as a person was the point, but I don't know, I feel like you're supposed to be rooting for him more often than not. The parts that focus on him trying to be a better doctor--sure. Absolutely. Best parts. But so much of the early seasons are mired in his attempts at relationships and those are the worst parts of him.
