I liked it. My favorite episode so far of this new season. Not too heavy, and it gets back to the JD/Turk relationship. (I can’t remember the exact line, but it had something to do with how JD and Carla are alike in that they both like black men.)
The janitor is a complete lunatic. He is one of my all-time favorite TV characters.
I think Jo would be fun to hang out with. I thought she was JD’s intern? If so, why was she hanging out with Eliot. Hell, does Eliot even have interns…she’s in private practice now.
I would much rather they showed bloopers at the end rather than cut-for-time scenes.
Anyone else feel like they’re setting it up for the new interns to take over if the show goes on after this season? Even excluding this episode it feels like they’ve gotten a lot of airtime compared to interns from previous seasons.
Well, they haven’t made any real announcement about what is going to happen after this season other than J.D. and Carla leaving. They’re setting up the season finale to be a series finale too.
Apparently something is wrong with my ABC station since no else mentioned having this problem- the first half of the episode had really messed up sound when I watched it. The only sounds on the episode were the voice overs, sound effects, and music, but when it was just regular dialogue it was basically silent. It wasn’t totally silent, there was audio of the background noise of people moving around and talking. It was really weird. At least the closed captioning worked, so I still could watch the episode.
Anyone know what could have caused that? It was just for the first half of Scrubs, the commercials and everything else on TV was normal.
Anyway, I thought it was a pretty funny episode. I liked the Janitor rigging the elevator. I also liked how Elliot did basically the same dance in Jo’s daydream that she did in real life. And on a purely shallow note, I have to note the incredible hotness of the intern Derek.
Can’t find a cite, but I recall reading something to the effect that they may do a spin-off – not called Scrubs – featuring this year’s interns.
I’m not putting any money on the success of such a show, but it could end up being OK. At any rate, I’d prefer that scenario to keeping Scrubs going without the original cast.
