I hope they get back to Elliott and JD living together next week. His goofiness goes over better outside of the hospital, and he seems a little more over the top this season.

Way too over the top. That's my problem with it.

An hour of Scrubs every week almost makes up for waiting so long for new episodes.

I'm amazed that the writers can put so many funny moments into every episode (Turk's brain freeze, the Gary Busey cameo, Dr. Kelso trolling for mall ass, etc.). For some reason, Turk's brain freeze struck me as particularly funny.

Definitely. Turk's brain freeze was a highlight. And the longer the gag dragged on the funnier it got. I think that was the biggest laugh of the night for me. Of course Gary Busey was a nice touch... and I was quite fond of the Jesus/Buddha pie conversation as well.

Not really liking the back to back episodes... Feels like they are going to blow their load.. A couple more weeks and then no Scrubs for a long time

I had to pause the Tivo, I was laughing so hard at the "cruising for mall ass" line. Outstanding delivery.

And I actually liked the pregnancy stuff - sure it's been done before, but you know what? Trying to get pregnant is something married couples actually do. So I don't get upset when a newly married TV couple does normal stuff like that. Plus, it was damn funny - "From now on it will be referred to as "Icky Sticky."

Loved the "pain face" sequence, as my wife and I, while in the hospital for the birth of our daughter a month ago, discussed how stupid that chart was.

What makes that line even funnier for me, is that the actor playing Dr. Kelso, as well as Bill Lawrence have said in the commentaries that he doesn't get almost all the jokes in the show. He just says his lines and nails his delivery.

And also how he was wearing nothing but a banana hammock in every annual staff photo.

She cared enough to get that restraining order, so I think he has a chance!

Where have you been for the last four years? I think I might have caught a random episode here and there, but never gave it much thought. A few weeks ago I noticed some posts here about it coming off of hiatus, so I set the DVR. Over the past two nights, the wife and I have watched all six or so episodes and I don't think we've laughed this hard in ages.

JD feeling Turks chest, Cox bringing the baby to the bar, "Jordan Godzilla Sullivan!", the freakishly strong thighs of Elliot (speaking of which, I can't get over Evil Becky making it good with this show, damn hot of course, but still)

I will be looking for the DVDs of this post haste, and NBC needs to make this part of the Thursday thing with Earl and The Office.

I found myself LOL alot at these episodes...especially the scene in the cafeteria:

Elliot: Maybe he's not faking the pain...I mean, who poos themselves on purpose?
JD: Turk poo'd himself in college on a bet
(Carla staring at Turk)
Turk: Carla didn't know that story. Thank you.

I was rolling...had to watch it 2-3 times, just to hear Turk's perfect, dead-pan delivery!

Liked the first episode, had a bit more grit overall, even with the whole Wizard of Oz riff going on. Braff continues on his directorial streak.

The best sound effect in the second episode had to be when Jordan's tongue sliding down on the glass prison. It was a little weaker than the first, but Bateman's nonchalance was good for some chuckles.
