  • One of my faves

    I just recently discovered Christa Miller's work when I watched an episode of The Drew Carey Show because I found out Kate Walsh was going to be on it. I was thought the show was funny, so I decided to start taping it. Most of the episodes I had were ones with Kellie, not Kate, but some of themMore had her in them. (That's weird cuz Christa was in way more episodes that Cynthia Watros). I thought she was cool, and then my mom told me she was the same actress who played Jordan on Scrubs . I don't know why I didn't figure that out, seeing as I love that show, but I thought that was awesome. Anyway, I've seen a bunch more episodes of both shows with her in them and have now come to the conclusion that she's amazing. Also, Jordan is arguably the funniest character ever. At least in my books. Christa is so talented and definately knows how to deliver a line. :)

    The actress behind Jordan Sullivan and Kate O'Brien. hide show

    I just recently discovered the work of Christa Miller when I saw an episode of "The Drew Carey Show" for the first time since I was eight. I was like "hey, she's cool." Then my mom told me that she was the same actress that played Jordan on "Scrubs." Frankly, despite the fact that I have watched "Scrubs" for years, I hadn't realized that it was her. I have now become seriously addicted to both "Scrubs" and "The Drew Carey Show" because of her amazing talent. Christa is such a talented and funny actress. Jordan must be one of the best ever characters on television. She's hilarious. Whomever said that sarcasm was the lowest form of humor should watch this show, because I think it is brilliant. Kate wasn't as sarcastic, but she was definately more like one of the guys. She was great. I hope that Ms Miller continues to act for a long time because she's great!

    Jordan Sullivan Scrubs hide show

    After seeing her as Kate on The Drew Carey Show I actually did want to see more of her, though I wasn't ever a big fan of The Drew Carey Show. So you imagine how psyched I was to see her land a role on the quirky off beat NBC comedy Scrubs and when they bumped her occasional appearance up to a real sold recurring role I was even happier. She plays this totally scary and crazy lady, Jordan Sullivan. And the character is so different then the little sweet 'one of the guys' Kate that she is best known for. I really love her as this character though and I think she fits with the role and the series amazingly well.
