Scrubs 12/4

The Janitor rocks, almost as much as the todd.

Was he really in The Fugitive though?

I love scrubs, its my favourite show on television.

Alot of good stuff from JD tonight.

The high school reunion scene was funny. "I thought you said their was going to be bitches here"

The Todd and the janitor were great together also.

Janitor was dead on tonight as usual.

And it was great when Carla was helping out Dr. Cox after his back went out on him. Those two are good every time they have a scene together.

Was it me, or did Carla and Dr. Cox seem like they were laughing in real life? I think Carla started laughing after that "watching Finding Nemo on DVD" bit, and they had to keep the scene with Dr. Cox laughing just for continuity.

It definitely seemed a bit out of place, but i thought it was still funny..

The Shaft/Turk scene was funny.

JD's bit though... "Yeah, that's our Citizen Kane."

The whole back thing with Dr Cox was hilarious!

I liked how you actually saw "Turk" after he jumped out of the car.

Yeah, that was the car crash scene from Vanilla Sky.

Lots of funny stuff, not as cohesive a storyline, though.

Good episode, I didn't laugh as much as other episodes, though I still laughed a lot. This is the best non animated sitcom on TV right now.

Did they do that whole Cox monologue (when he was with Carla) all in one take? He went on for a good two or three minutes and it looked like the actress for Carla's character couldn't hold in the laughter at the very end so they just rolled with it.

I don't know why they even advertised Tara Reid for this episode, since she was hardly in it. Black JD rocked. The janitor stuff was pretty funny as well. Up to the end, I thought that there would be no Dr Bob, but they snuck a few scenes at the end...

Yeah, that was definitely spontaneous laughter. Dr. Cox's laugh was broken out of character, and the cut after was a little jarring... they should have had an extra couple of seconds to sigh or something to make it more continuous. Still, that was cool.

So did anyone else pop in The Fugitive in their DVD player during the commercial break?

No, but I did rewind the TiVo to see the scene again & couldn't tell... So I fired up IMDB, just to see for myself...

Doug: "Hey Klaus, in your country how come Hamburg and Frankfurt have nothing to do with hamburgers and hot dogs."

Janitor: "How come your Lake Titicaca not filled with boobs and poop?"

I was thinking the same thing. It's short, simple, and boom. Thats it! This is by far my favorite show, period.
