"Ok, and...blacktion!"

The PSA was pretty damn funny too, but made me think that the Office beat them to it.

Dr. Acula. Fantastic stuff...

The funniest thing I think I have ever seen/heard - "Knife wrench!"

And, once again, the show manages to make me laugh uncontrollably, and yet still tear up. Not has a show since "Sports Night" been able to make me do that.

It's amazing how this tv show doesn't pass itself off as a medical drama show because, it's more REAL than the shows that do like House, Grey's Anatomy. The emotions and relationships between all the characters are more true to real life.

I was somewhat disappointed in the episode. I wanted to laugh but I just found all the scenarios to be fairly forced and unfunny. The PSA was pretty good though.

The only thing I can think to say is: Perfect.

I'd be interested to see how many times in the past 5 years Cox has called JD by his real name. I'm sure it has to be very few.

It bothered my wife immensely.

Dr. Jan I Tor's "Knife-Wrench!!!!!" was most welcome.

And a few great scenes between Cox, J.D. and Kelso.

Probably, she directed "My Common Enemy" back in Season 4.

I totally missed that the surgeon was Agent Kellerman on Prison Break. The beard really changed his look.

yup, would have been a brilliant bit if not for The Office being funnier, first and much more unexpected.

Good episode, was expecting more. But after "My Lunch" I don't see how the episode following can be anything but a slight disappointment.

Do you guys think McGinley will receive an Emmy nod for this season?

Scrubs did get a lot of love from 30,000 USA Today readers in their "SOS" (Save Our Shows) poll. Scrubs got 61% of the love from the voters (the next highest was Veronica Mars with 50% of the voters' votes).

Great as always. Nice to see Ted and the band making an appearance, albeit a brief one. Only Scrubs could make a touching moment out of one character calling another by name.
