Quotes

Bill [On whether NBC has ever made them drop an episode]: They made us drop a medical marijuana episode, we replaced it with an episode with a dying patient paying a whore for sex, which apparently was just fine with the NBC censors. (edit)
Bill [On his best prank]: Since I did the license plate prank, I would say that's the best one. For those of you who don't know, Zach is embarrassed by his celebrity. So, I put license plates on his car that said "TV DOC" and had dollar signs around them. He didn't notice until days later at a restaurant valet stand, when everyone was looking at him like he was a complete tool. I feel retribution is coming this year. (edit)
Bill [On whether Zach Braff has ever directed an episode of Scrubs]: Zach directs a few episodes every year. Including the Wizard of Oz homage that got us most of our Emmy nominations. How talented he is, never ceases to annoy me.
(edit)
Bill [Responding to a fan's comment on his blog]: Excellent point! My wife IS hot. As I have a one month old child, I have not seen, nor touched her in quite some time. (edit)
Bill [On going back for a sixth season of Scrubs]: It's a lot like going back for your senior year of high school, except for the sixth time, which is dangerously close to what actually happened in my life. (edit)
