  • DO NOT Comment with just "There is no Season 9" These comments will be deleted, they add nothing to the discussion. There are people who want to discuss Season 9/Med School.

  • DO stay on topic. Posting social media updates from the cast that do not relate to the show will be removed. This is not /r/ZachBraff. Social media posts from the actors that are about the show are more than welcome. Posting things that vaguely relate to the show may be removed if blatantly off topic.

  • DO NOT Post about outside news or US or World politics. Let's keep it about the show and not what's happening in the real world.

  • YOU CAN post photos you've taken with the crew, but please post a comment giving a little back story, what was the person like, how'd you meet them, etc.

I work in a hospital and sometimes i feel the show

I started a few months ago to work in a hospital, is in Spain so is a whole diferent healthcare system but still there are some moments when i feel the things that are in the show. The other day i have to move a patient with a really nasty look (i wont go into specifics if you are sensible) and that was like "my monster episode". I had those images all day in my head

Episodes to get someone hooked

Which couple of episodes (preferably sequenced) do you think have the best chance to hook someone to the show. I have this friend whom I know would love the show, but the special effects / storylines in the first couple of episodes don’t seem to hook them.

Do teeth affect the ability to whistle like Dr Cox?

I’ve recently been trying to learn how to do the Dr Cox teeth/fingerless whistle, but can’t get it. Early this year, when I first tried it, I couldn’t get it at all, possibly because at the time I had very bad teeth and could feel air flowing out constantly, despite following instructions on the whistle. However, a few months ago I got braces and my teeth are straightening, so would that help or was it just a skills issue?

Dr House (House MD) and Dr Cox (Scrubs) are very similar

Both have the following. A head doctor who is very notably sarcastic, miserable inside, insensitive/direct, lives alone and acts like he hates people and only does his job, which he values doing properly, but that isn’t entirely true. His ex wife is a recurring character, he has feelings for a younger character, and has a superior who he regularly has conflicts and with. He supervises three young people primarily, a bald black man, a white man, and a white woman, the last two having on and off romantic tensions. He eventually shaves his head in the later seasons as well.

Did anyone ever find out the song name at the end of Season 4 Episode 7 "My Common Enemy"? A(Hulu Version) and no, not Tart lol

Every rewatch, I hear that song and hope that someone would have figured it out by now. Sounds like it could be a hit, but no tune Finding app will pick it up. Odds are low, but here's hoping to the many of us out here who have been waiting 10 years lol. Time stamp at the song start is 19:21. Here's to hoping!

Janitor’s real name - CMV

I firmly believe that the Janitor’s real name is Neil Flynn (the actor’s real name). Think about it. When JD discovered he had a cameo in “The fugitive”, he confirmed it. Which means that his real name can be found on the credits. My theory is that they play around with the Janitor’s name as a running joke because all along it’s just Neil Flynn being himself (he is known for improvising a lot of iconic dialogues). Feel free to try to change my viewpoint.

I love this show, but I'm a tried and true Elliot hater. She's an awful human being. Everyone has their faults in the show, many of them. But as someone who is supposed to be relatable, she's the worst.

I'm on my infinite rewatch and the list of grievances is many, but I'll keep it short to just a couple that are truly awful behavior, especially of a doctor.

When she takes the fellowship, she starts stealing hospital supplies from Sacred Heart.

When she loses the fellowship, she ends up having to treat Kelso for an STD and uses that to blackmail him to get her job back at Sacred Heart.

She gets the private practice gig, and then when Cox needs help because they don't have a spectral camera so he can see his patient's heart better, she tries to hold the private practice camera hostage over him saying he can only use it if he goes to her wedding.

These are abhorrent behaviors. And lastly, one that has always irked me, that throughout the show, she often likes to tell Dr. Cox that he's never helped or supported her at all, despite, the dozens possibly upon dozens of occasions this is downright untrue....from punching Kelso in the face to teaching her to take time for herself so she doesn't end up jumping off the roof, just to name a couple

Honorable mention: Bitching about suddenly being "poor" when her dad cuts her off. She's literally, as she said, never had to pay for anything in her life...and she has made money...so she definitely has a nice little nest egg for herself and no bills up until that point

What is your favourite story other than JD’s?

JD is usually the one narrating an episode but sometimes other people narrate. These episodes are referred to as stories? Do you have a favourite story episode?

Jordan Cox/ Christina Miller

If you haven't seen, Christa Miller plays a very similar character to Jordan Sullivan in a show called Shrinking. The show also has Harrison Ford and Jason Segel and it's been great so far. If you're looking for a new show to watch, you should check it out. It also has Neil Flynn/ Janitor in a couple episodes

Turk is a master at misdirection

Okay so im watching scrubs for the fourteenth time and noticing for the first time that turk os just a master at misdirection specifically whenever hes in an argument with carla that hes losing ground on or is too emotional to respond to properly he calls carlas heritage into question something hes been called on multiple times but always “seems” to forget. He uses the time arguing about her heritage to either come up with a better defense of his position or changes his position completely to end the argument amicably.

How many of you fans are doctors? What do you love about the show?

I find it realistic. Probably the most realistic medical show ever. I'm guessing physicians in USA would find it even more relatable!
