Just another amusing point in one of the best written shows on TV, and certainly the most underrated.
In last week’s episode they have a running joke about the pranks the janitor is playing on people- playing all these different characters.
JD gets it in his head, after seeing “The Fugitive” movie with Harrison Ford on TV, that a bit part (of the transit cop on the train) is played by the janitor. The janitor of course denies it till the end of the show, when after being called out by JD, he finally admits it in an amusing manner.
The real funny part, is that it’s all true. The actor playing the janitor is really the actor who played the transit cop.
I agree wholeheartedly. It makes me very sad that they lose 6% of the audience after Friends, because, in my mind, Scrubs is a thousand times better written and more compelling, and a million times funnier.
But elf6c, now that you’ve told his secret he’ll have to kill you.
It was a cute touch on a great, but underrated show.
Bibliocat, have you tried Arrested Development on Fox? It has a similar smart style of humor, but isn’t quite as surreal and self-aware. It’s the only other sitcom I watch regularly besides Scrubs.
