Episode Recap: "My Inconvenient Truth" | Scrubs | 11/9/2007
Well, despite J.D. (Zach Braff) finally being told by nearly everyone he knows that he needs to grow up, and Cox's useful, if revenge-driven, demand that Elliot recognize that she is starving herself dangerously, this was the frothiest episode of the season so far. And yet, while pleasant, it also managed to be the least funny, even given that it was paced like the most like typical Scrubs episodes of past seasons.As part of NBC's "Green Week" stunt, the episode begins with a discussion between... read more
Episode Recap: "My Hard Labor" | Scrubs | 11/2/2007
Another pretty solid episode — still not Scrubs at its comic best, and still at least as much about the serious subtexts of the series as about the blackouts and fantasy sequences.Kim (Elizabeth Banks) is about to give birth, and J.D. (Zach Braff) is ready for everything... except for openly admitting to Kim that he doesn't love her. Meanwhile, Cox (John C. McGinley) looks for someone competent to give his infant daughter a shot, unwilling to give it to her himself for fear that she'll... read more

Mel Brooks: Is there a Dr. Frankenstein in the House? | Today's News: Our Take | 10/12/2006
A workshop production of the stage musical adaptation of Mel Brooks' Young Frankenstein is but weeks away, and still the project has yet to find it's Dr. Frankenstein (that's pronounced Frahnken-shteen). Per the New York Post, the producers' first choice was (of course) Hugh Jackman, but the Boy from Oz is simply too busy with films. A few days ago, SNL alum Jimmy Fallon threw his lab coat into the ring with an audition that "went well," but the front-runner may actually be Tom "Ed" Cavanagh,... read more
