Never really got into Scrubs

Besides some of the stuff people openly obsessed over, the only scene I remember was a YouTube clip of something from season 4 and it involved the old doctor

I remember in the pilot when JD thought to himself that Elliot's butt looked like two Pringles hugging. Or when he was ogling the mayor of Gotham City's butt and told him 'congrats on the pooper!' Good times.

Scrubs is great, a top 5 favorite show for me. It's definitely a product of it's time, but that provides some of it's charm for me. It was challenging and pushing boundaries in a lot of ways and is kinda shitty in other ways, and that speaks to me how art, culture, and society is always challenging norms in some ways and growing to be kinder in others.

The Scrubs podcast with Zach Braff and Donald Faison is great and they, along with the creator, really wear on their sleeves that some ideas and jokes are pretty shitty/offensive, and they've learned and grown since then.

The show (and podcast) just feels honest.

I love the podcast. All the behind the scenes stuff they talk about and the banter between them and now Dan and Joelle who were just supposed to be background production and tech people in the beginning is hilarious.

remember when they introduced a new lady surgeon who was supposed to be like a female doctor cox but every fan hated her?
her whole purpose was redundant anyway because they already had jordan as the female doctor cox who was way more likable and actually funny

Are you talking about Courtney Cox's character? Or the blonde surgeon who Carla uninvited from her and Turk's wedding?

Dr. Miller? Yeah her character never worked very well. She pretty much only existed to give character development to Cox and Turk, she hardly even interacts with the rest of the cast

courtney cox's character does not fit my description since she was more of a Dr kelso replacement and honestly the main cast really wronged her
its not her fault american medicine is so fucked up that if you cant afford treatment you die

also the show has like no respect for blue collar workers
if someone has a job other than being a doctor at some point the show will either imply or outright say that what they do is a waste of their life

Yeah. I used to catch it when it was still airing and really enjoyed it. Then a few years ago my gf and I started streaming it and....it wasn't good. Idk if it's just childish humor that I outgrew or what, but we stopped halfway through season 2.

She was supposed to be Turk's rival, but got an offer to star in another show so her character never got the chance to come into its own

she wasnt his rival
she was his boss
a rival has to be on the same level of the other person to be a rival

Scrubs is the most medically correct tv-show, which is pretty amazing for a silly comedy series.
The person JD was based off of is actually a doctor and was a consultant for the medical stuff on the show, so it's not really surprising. I remember House being judged as the most medically accurate TV show and Scrubs is the most accurate at portraying what it's like to be a doctor though.

He might be talking about the episode where JD fantasizes that he's Turk so he's in blackface. That episode was removed from all streaming sites I believe.

Idk why there was ever a controversy over that scene, tbh. Turk was in white face and JD literally got beaten up because of the costume.

I didn't think it was a big deal either, tbh. And no, I'm not white before anyone says anything.

the janitor was such an asshole

In the first season he only interacted with JD and they were going to reveal that he didn't really exist and was just a figment of JD's paranoia if they didn't get a second season commissioned.

Yeah, they wrote him off of the show in season 8 because he was in Parks and Rec and couldn't do both. In universe he was fired for being lazy iirc.

that is not remotely what happens though. Its not a fantasy, to start, and Turk takes JD to a black fraternity party in blackface while hes in whiteface, then Turk gets distracted and leaves so he isnt there to explain the joke and JD gets his ass kicked

There is a fantasy where Elliot is in blackface tho
