Zach Braff Leaving Scrubs | Today's News: Our Take | 7/16/2008
Zach Braff will be leaving Scrubs at the end of this season. "Not by his choice," joked executive producer Bill Lawrence. That's the big, though perhaps not-too-surprising news to come out of ABC's panel Wednesday.As a result, the jocular conversation, led by head jester Lawrence, steered toward envisioning a post-J.D. Sacred Heart world. "Isn't Turk without J.D. a bit like Joanie without Chachi?" one snarky reporter asked. "It's like Chachi without Joanie actually," corrected Donald Faison (Turk himself!). Lawrence admitted that he had always pitched Scrubs as ER as a comedy, with a revolving cast of characters that would allow for new blood from time to time. The show has already introduced us to a new set of younger interns. "We cried when [Lawrence] said he was bringing in younger actors," said Sarah Chalke. To which the always-complimentary Lawrence shot back: "Why don't you take a gander at the opening credits [which date from the show's first season] and see how young you... read more be the first to leave a comment
Zach Braff, The Office's Roy Team on New Pilot | Today's News: Our Take | 12/21/2007
Zach Braff, whose Scrubs someday (...possibly) might wrap up its final season, is in talks to direct and executive-produce Saint of Circumstance, a drama pilot for Fox. Per the Reporter, The Office's David Denman would front the series as a man in a midlife crisis who quits his office job to instead toil as a night-shift paramedic. The pilot, penned by Braff's brother Adam, would shoot once the you-know-what has ended. read more be the first to leave a comment
"My Number One Doctor" | TV Show Recaps | 12/7/2007
...And this is the Scrubs we've seen a little too much of, of late...good enough to watch, but only intermittently or fitfully funny, and perhaps not quite seemlessly mixing the frequent tragedy of medical life with the various sorts of comedy offered up.A recap can be pretty quick on this episode, since the A, B, and C plotlines are pretty thin in outline: Elliot faces an ethical dilemma when she learns that one of her private-practice patients, dying of ALS, has landed in the hospital in a suicide attempt; Elliot is unsure as to whether to make the authorities and her patient's home-healthcare nurse aware of this, or to allow the patient to die on her own terms. JD suggests she should tell, for no better reason than that Elliot tends to let such things get under her skin; by episode's end, Elliot has decided to keep her patient's secret, having accidentally let the dying woman know how more effectively to drug herself to death. Meanwhile, JD, having discovered how insanely... read more be the first to leave a comment
"My Growing Pains" | TV Show Recaps | 11/30/2007
Now, this was the Scrubs we've come to expect...sharp, goofy (but grounded), humane. Very funny, even when (painlessly) lecturing.J.D. hangs out at the nurses' station with Turk...and with his infant son. Turk invites J.D. to play basketball, which J.D. declines, pointing out that his son is strapped to his chest...Turk suggests that he simply won't pass the ball to J.D., and J.D. notes that that would be just like a typical game for them. J.D. also has a brief fantasy about being able to breastfeed his boy, one among several large-breasted lactating male cast members (a tapped-out J.D. allows Kelso to feed the child; J.D. had apparently used most of his own milk in winning a squirting duel with Turk, who then sprays Kelso and J.D. in a sneak attack). Turk is brought up short by Carla, who notes that Turk could be spending time with their daughter, Izzy. Meanwhile, interns are being detailed to follow, at a close distance, a resident known for his short temper, Hooch (a character... read more be the first to leave a comment
"My Identity Crisis" | TV Show Recaps | 11/16/2007
Well, like a baseball (or beisbol) team, sometimes a great series needs a "rebuilding" season. "My Identity Crisis" still wasn't up to the heights of most previous years of Scrubs, but it was the funniest episode of the season so far and it will do.We begin with a dream sequence; Carla (Judy Reyes) is making out with her husband, Turk (Donald Faison) in a hospital bed at Sacred Heart. Turk pulls out a restraint and binds her wrist to the bedframe, but the prospect of kinky fun is dampened by the sudden appearance of JD (Zach Braff) and then Elliot (Sarah Chalke), who are there to murder Carla, allowing Turk and JD to pal around endlessly and Elliot to steal and raise Carla's daughter, Izzi. What turns out to be the most disturbing aspect of the nightmare for Carla, however, when she awakens, is that its the first dream she remembers having in English, rather than in Spanish. Meanwhile, Cox (John C. McGinley) is informed by his partner Jordan (Christa Miller, too absent of late)... read more be the first to leave a comment
