The third (?) season is starting tonight, and I’ve been told I simply MUST watch this thing, so I plan to. But I don’t know who anybody is or where it’s set or anything about it, and I don’t really have time to read all of it in epguides or wherever! Help!! ---

Start [here](http://scrubs-tv.com/guide.html). Get caught up to speed, then never miss another episode!!! J.D. is a new doctor. So are Eliot and Turk. The older, mentor doctors hate each other and are generally insane. The janitor has it in for J.D. J.D. and Eliot have a love/disdain relationship that runs hot and cold. Turk marries Carla. Dr. Cox turns out to be a pretty good guy. Michael J. Fox and Heather Graham are the best guest-stars. Rowdy is a stuffed dog. ---

The opener tonight was kind of lame, but I liked the second one. **Mehitabel** , I highly recommend the first and second season DVDs. ---

Loved it, although I was confused that Elliott is a girl. But otherwise, I was hooked. Off to Netflix!!
