I want to know why the hell there was no "Scrubs" tonight. Did we really need another damned "Friends" re-run instead?

I'm pretty sure that's Teck from the Hawaii season.

I think their's no scrubs because they had a few weeks of no new friends but they did show a new Scrubs. I think they're just trying to even it out so one isn't to far out ahead of the other.

As far as this ep, the Joey stuff was funny and him peeing on Jeff Goldblum was good.

Ross got mugged by Phoebe The funny thing is that's not that hard to believe.

I knew that smug guy looks awfully familiar.

My theory for skipped Scrubs is because it does good in ratings, but not as good as "Friends", and since Feburary is such a crucial month for rating, NBC will do what it has to get the ratings, especially since "Survivor" is competing against them.

Overall, it was sort of boring, or at least a bit bland. It wasn't as if I had high expectations.

Yes, but when anyone pees on Jeff Goldblum, that is funny. Admit it, because Joey was the only decent part of this show - has been pretty much for the last couple of years.

Teck was so different from his RW days, I think he was even going for a different voice, and must be working with a decent manager to get even a small role on friends, and it could be semi recurring.

I did like how chandler came up with the tag line.

Joey as always carrying the show, and I enjoyed the 'mugging'

Would have been better had phoebe just beat the guy up, as we all know Ross is a wuss

Dang, except for the ending, that show was bad. But Joey's face as he's going on Goldblum was priceless.

So I guess Teck now beats out Eric Nies from the Grind as the most successful real worlder now. A 4-5 line part on Friends.

didn't like this episode very much.. Usually i give Friends the benefit of the doubt, but i found it to be very bland and unfunny for 90% of the show

I liked it. Jeff Goldblum made me laugh.

And was the mugger Kyle Gass from Tenacious D? I meant to check the credits but forgot...

But wouldn't two new episodes(one of friends and one of scrubs) be better than one new and one repeat even if it is Friends?

Decent episode. not as bad as others.

Well, I'm no NBC network exec, but I'd imagine that some people may watch "Friends" and then switch over to "Survivor" or whatever. So, they might not switch if "Friends" is still on, whereas if "Scrubs" was on, they might change the channel. If they repeat a popular episode, so people might watch just for fun, even they've already seen it.

Can someone tell me what happened at the end (credits)? Stupid NBC has a hard-on for running Friends long, and even with 2-extra minutes tacked on the the record time, my TiVo cut it off.

Ross walks into Monica and Chandlers appt. and ask's Monica is she has spoke to Pheobe yet about.....she cuts him off and says, about a 14 year old girl being the mugger, yes. Then he asks, have you told anyone. Monica tells him she's told pretty much everyone they know. Pretty lame ending for a pretty lame episode. Scrubs has been better than Friends this year by far. If it weren't for Joey, you could move Friends to UPN and no one would care.

Yeah, me too. I updated the TiVo to record 5 extra minutes for future episodes.

We've gotten new episodes of Scrubs when there has been repeats of Friends. I think it and Good Morning Miami are on different schedules. It's all about NBC's ratings.
