Yeah that whole pizza role bit had me laughing out loud.

Was Kelso the only one not there at the gathering at the end?

It's the little things that really kill me:
- Maintaining continuity with all the lies Janitor has told before. (I especially like the "my wife only has pointer and thumb/pinky")
- Gloria clearing her throat right before she speaks into Dr. Cox' pen mic
- Keith in the background winking at everyone when Cox is talking to Carla

Great episode.

I don't think the baby will be that big of a deal. So much of the show takes place at the hospital that there won't need to be much explaining as to why they aren't showing the baby much. Jack only seems to make appearances occasionally and it doesn't seem odd or out of place.

Did I miss something? What's going on with Gloria and her throat?


I agree; I don't think there will be any problem with having a baby on the show. It's not like Friends where Ross would just ignore his kid for 5 years and bring him out for the Christmas episode. Even though Jack doesn't appear on the show, Dr Cox still talks about him every now and then.

You didn't miss anything. It's just what most people do before speaking into a mic you know? To make sure their voice comes out clear. And I just liked the touch of Gloria doing it right before speaking into Cox' fake mic.

Did no one else notice the blatant reference to Office Space?

Dr. Cox, while ignoring Eliot, decides to talk to a stapler instead. He compliments the stapler on its red color. Red staplers did not even exist prior to Office Space. The movie promted Swingline to create a line of red staplers.

For those truly ignorant, John C. McGinley was in Office Space as Bob, the consultant.

I caught the shout out to Office Space as well, but forgot to mention it.

I noticed it, too - and it most definitely garnered a huge grin from this viewer. I just forgot about it, because there was so much great stuff crammed into this one ep.

I believe the word you're looking for is "tore."

Did anybody catch how bad Christa Miller looked in the final crowd shot?

As the season started, I chalked up her declining appearance to a botox-gone-wrong misadventure. But by her increasingly swelled face, I'm beginning to suspect something more serious is afoot.

I certainly hope I'm wrong.

I noticed the shot of Christa that you're talking about. She looked rough man. Not sure what's going on there.

Nothing serious is afoot - she was just the recipient of a really bad face-lift that was horribly unnecessary.

And one that my wife needs to comment on every. single. time. Christa Miller is on screen.

I just downloaded the song "All the Words"...are you sure this is the song? It's a great song actually, but it is a Christian song...not sure if Scrubs would have used a Christian song on the show.

Here is a reference you should bookmark. It has ALL the music from the show, even the replacement songs on the DVDs that were changed from the music in the original airing. It is a great reference for making your own Scrubs iPod playlist. I never would have thought I'd have Bell Biv DeVoe's "Poison" on my iPod!

Especially one that has an abortion joke

The pizza opening bit ranks as one of the best openings. How do they come up with these things?? This show rocks!!!!
And Carla was looking especially delicious tonight!!!

Interesting letter from TV Guide:

Question: Love your column! My question is, now that NBC has shelved Four Kings (which I actually liked), what do you think about moving Scrubs to the 8:30 pm/ET time slot that Kings occupied? Maybe they could gain the audience they deserve if they were sandwiched between Will & Grace and My Name Is Earl. — Gina

Matt Roush: I think it's a great idea — just about everyone except the NBC programmers seem to agree — but I don't see it happening, not this late in the season. NBC just threw another ball of crap at Scrubs last week, pairing it with the miserably unwatchable Teachers, and I would imagine for much of the rest of what's left of the season, NBC will continue to either double-run Earl episodes on Thursdays (way to burn out a hot new show) or replay classic Will & Grace episodes as part of the countdown to the end. Or maybe they'll find a way to sneak even more editions of Deal or No Deal across the lineup. Who knows with this network? If Scrubs survives this season, it will be no thanks to NBC.
