    I watch scrubs for quite some time now, And suddenly i found this extraordinaiy musical episode. I was not shure what to think of it so i watched it.

    Not shure what to think about it i decided to forget i ever seen this episode. Then, when i was in bed that night i had a song in my head. It kept going: for the last time turk, I am dominican! After that i watched again. And again. And again and again and again. I love this episode so much i must have watched it 30 times or more. I have uploaded it on my psp and i am still not sick of it. I say, Awsome Episode =Dmoreless

    Well some of the songs were so corny that i just thought it would be complete crap but when they sang "Friends Forever/Whats Going to Happen" I Liked it. It was like "whats going to happen" explained they entire purpose of the show and becomeing a doctor. It also inculded the songs: Everything comes down to poo, Are you ok?, Welcome to sacred(or how ever you spell it) heart, Im dominacn,and A Long long year. I loved a long long year because i never knew how well the lady who plays carla could sing until then. My Musical is an episode you MUST watch!!moreless

    You could either love or hate this episode, I loved it. If musicals aren't for you, don't rate this episode badly because you don't like musicals in general. As I read most of the reviews, some were saying this was the best episode of Scrubs ever, and some were saying it was the worst. I can tell you on thing this episode definitely was though: original. Not a lot of shows have a special musical episode they can just have fun with. And no other show has taken a musical and made it like this.

    Elliot was still annoying, she should have just been grown up about things and let JD stay with her from the start. She wants to live alone, so she practically kicks JD out when he's in need? Elliot completely deserved being lonely in the end, JD was even perfectly understandable. Carla decides to take a year off work, but then is having trouble breaking it to Turk that she wants to come back.

    The patient hearing music was very clever and creative and it was just so perfect with this hospital show. It managed to capture seriousness and hilarity in one scene... with music! A lot of classic songs here, and most of them dealt with running gags in the series. I definitely feel like Season 6 was the year that the Scrubs wanted to let loose and try new things, and they definitely managed to do that with this episode. Perfect episode.moreless

    Bite me, but i really didn't like this episode a lot. I'm a huge Scrubs fan and LOVE nearly all of the episodes. A few of the songs like Guy Love or the Poo song were pretty decent. But most of the others really weren't that good. They really overdid it with the 'song'. If there were like 2-4 songs in there it would have been okay. But this were just to many. If i was a 'musical' fan i would have probably liked it better. Elliot has gotten really full of her herself this Season (it already started last Season, but this Season it's getting worse). The Carla storyline was kinda blah. I knew that she was not going to stay home for a whole year right from the beginning. It was still better than the Fairy Tale episode, because it was way funnier. But still not a scrubs classic.moreless

  • Trivia

    ADD TRIVIA
    • When the crew is singing "We're going to miss you, Carla", you can see a clock that shows around 15:10. At the end of the song, Turk and the crew go off to lunch, which is a little late. Edit
    • Since I'm Dominican was shot two months after the rest of the musical numbers due to Judy Reyes' (Carla) fractured hip, Stephanie D'Abruzzo's (Ms. Miller) hair is slightly longer during that scene than it is in the rest of the episode. Edit
    • For Latin America, this episode was dubbed to Spanish, including translations of all the songs. However, the songs aren't performed by the same cast who do the dubbing for the dialogs. This becomes evident during Guy Love, as the voice who does J.D.'s singing sounds closer to the voice who does Turk's dialog. Edit

  • Notes

    ADD NOTES
    • Unusually, the main credits appeared before the opening presentation, except for the writer and the director, who appeared after, like always. Edit
    • In the song "Everything Comes Down to Poo," the line sung by J.D., "It may sound gross, you may say shush, but we need to see what comes out of your tush," was originally meant to be "It may sound gross, it may sound crass, but we need to see what comes out of your ass." It was changed due to it being too graphic. Edit
    • According to Bill Lawrence everyone on the cast aside from Sarah Chalke and Christa Miller can sing and dance. Edit

    • I'm Dominican (song) Turk: Well I always thought family was the most important thing to Puerto Ricans. Carla: I've had it up to here (Holds her hand above her head) so let me make it very clear, because I swear I'll never let you win again! Every time that you confess I come from Puerto Rico- Turk: Yes? Carla: For the last time Turk, I'm Dominican! Turk: Don't make a big to do, I was simply testing you. Carla: Then why'd you tell J.D. our baby's blacksican!? Turk: Babe, you know I know the truth. Carla: Well, I need a little proof! So list all you know about me or no sex again. Turk: Ahh let's see....your name is Carla! Carla: Oh yes. Turk: You are Latina. Carla: Impressive. Turk: You're a nurse. Your mother's dead and oh wait, I got it! Three sisters! Carla: TURK! Turk Two sisters? Well, I'm sure you have a brother who's a huge jerk-off! Carla: Tell me what's my middle name? Turk: Okay, I'm tired of this game! Let's forget it, I give up, I guess you win again. But it's not just me who gets mixed up by all this crazy ethnic stuff! Todd: Sorry, even I know, she's Dominican. Boo-yah! Carla: Did I grow up in Illinois or was it Michigan? How long before we met was I in medicine? Was our wedding song the Beatles or led Zeppelin? Am I freakin' Puerto Rican or Dominican!? Turk: The thing is guys remember facts, like what Derek Jeter hit last year which was 303, and that is why our brains are maxed. And there's no room for things like birthdays or ethnicities! Carla: Well thank you for that glimpse into the workings of the inner man. Turk: Let's talk about your job, not the fact that your- Carla: Dominican! Turk: You're not staying home from work! Carla: Will that make you happy Turk? Turk: I'll support you as long as you choose to earn the Benjamins! Carla: The I'll return to work today! Now, you're sure that that's okay? Turk: I say si which is yes in Dominican...and Peurto Rican! Carla: Turk! Turk: But you're Dominican. Edit

    • Miss Miller's first name is Patti, named after musical star Patti LuPone, of whom Debra Fordham (the writer) is a huge fan. Edit
    • During "Welcome to Sacred Heart", after the part "Caught an STD from some tasty little tart?", a guy looking like Matt LeBlanc appeared. That was a reference to the season one episode "The One Where Underdog Gets Away" of Friends, where Joey (played by Matt LeBlanc) poses as a model for a health campaign, and turns out to be the poster boy for VD. Edit
    • Buffy the Vampire Slayer had a musical episode as their seventh episode to their sixth season. Scrubs appear to have done the same, although only by production order. Edit
