This half-hour comedy focuses on the bizarre experiences of fresh-faced medical intern John "J.D." Dorian (Zach Braff) as he embarks on his healing career in a surreal hospital crammed full of unpredictable staffers and patients – where humor and tragedy can merge paths at any time.

Joining the rumpled J.D. in his exhilarating brave new world are his college buddy, Chris Turk (Donald Faison, "Clueless"), an intern with a more elite surgical group, and J.D.'s fellow medical intern, the beautiful and driven Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke, "Roseanne"). Keeping the new interns on their toes are: The fatherly chief of medicine, Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins); the abrasive, worldly Dr. Perry Cox (John McGinley), and the caring but slightly jaded nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes). The hospital janitor (Neil Flynn) also never seems to miss an opportunity to harass his target.

Scrubs is filmed in a real-life hospital. It's the North Hollywood Medical Center, which has gone under severe reconstruction to fit all the equipment and represent Sacred Heart Hospital.

The Opening Theme Song:
"Superman" performed by Lazlo Bane

  Elliot makes an extended reapperarence in this episode as "The Wise Woman" who has seen it all. Somehow, I never can get use to Dr. Elliot in a mentor role, it came so fast in the series, that I still think it's out of character. It was an okay episode, and Cole is beginning his transformation to safety. I would have like it if they kept Cole as being a selfish jerk, because there are doctors that I've had that have been complete idiots. Still, all in all, I like Denise, too bad no Sunny, but great cameo by The Tod. Season is not as bad as I though it would be, but my overall complaint is that everyone is so nice and safe now.less

• Ending, Not Ending?

  Ok, so I know that on the Abc website they are saying that new episodes are coming this winter, but this site states that the series has ended. Can anyone clear this up for me?

  4.5 Poor

  The reason I'm giving this show such a low rating is because Scrubs is NOT Scrubs without JD. I will not be watching. hide show

  The reason I'm giving this show such a low rating is because Scrubs is NOT Scrubs without JD. I will not be watching. Not to thrilled with the new girl either. She is not funny and the only thing she makes me wanna do when I watch her is go to sleep. That is not good when you're trying to have a good comedy. And why did they tear down Sacred Hearts, that was just stupid, the only thing worse than that is no Carla. How are we supposed to watch a show that we grew to love without the characters that mad us love it? It should have ended last season without further humiliating it's name.

  9.5 Superb

  I've never seen such a good show ever before. hide show

  This show is..... amazing! seasons 1-8 are known by me as the classics. To me season 9 is a spin-off, so i will rate them differently. first, seasons 1-8 : Classic! These seasons constantly kept me laughing the entire time. Even through the mess of season 7 I enjoyed this show a lot. One thing that scrubs (season 1-8) has that no other sitcom has is heart. And this show has plenty of it. There were episodes that even I (a grown male) would tear up about. This show captured the raw emotion of being a new doctor in a large, scary hospital and having to deal with death and stress on a daily basis. And while the later seasons lost some of the new-doctor feel, it still maintained that emotion that made it great. Funny, yet emotional at the same time, and not to mention a near perfect cast.... It completely deserves a 10. Now, for season 9.... Its a little early to fully judge. Only 3 episodes have aired and well, it has the same problems as any new show. forced jokes, uneven pacing, nervous acting.... but this has potential. im not a fan of Cole (but were we supposed to be???) but drew and Lucy are amazing! this show is missing something that made classic scrubs great though: patient interaction. It still has it but it is in short bursts. And there has been little emotion (but like I said it is a little early to judge) . It is pretty dang funny though. for right now I give it a 9.

  9 Superb

  A brilliant hospital Comedy different from most sitcoms hide show

  Scrubs is a very well put together hospital comedy with fun aspects although by some people it can be seen as inhumane, racist or too much around the subject of sexual relationships.
  
  Scrubs is a unique comedy for reasons being: 1) Narration throughout the series by the star Zach Braffe ( and in many episodes narrated by the other cast and several times by the supporting cast). 2) It is filmed in an actual location for Sacred Heart. 3) It continues on for more episodes after the main stars have finished plus the new webisode series Scrubs: Interns. 4) Scrubs is one of the very few comedy shows to go to cut scenes endlessly throughout the Series.
  
  Scrubs has had its share of tearful episodes such as "My Screw Up", "My Lunch", "My Long Goodbye" and even "My Finale" etc.
  
  Relationships play a big part in Scrubs as well as hospital life inculding J.D.s relationships and on and off relationships with Elliot Reid.

  9 Superb

  The best sitcom that has come in the past ten yers. hide show

  At first I did not like Scrubs, I thought it was odd. But soon, I feel love in with show. J.D, Turk, Elliot, Carla, Dr. Cox, Dr. Kelso, Ted, The Janitor and many more characters have made me laugh. Scrubs is one of the few sitcoms that I consider excellent. Scrubs has made me laugh, cry, and think about life in general. I empthasize with character of JD, who searches for the answers to life, while he works at sacred heart. Unlike most shows, I like all character, they all real and have depth. Sometimes the show can get too weird, but it is funny nonetheless. Scrubs like many shows has degressed over the years. But I will always considered it one of my shows.
