Description

Check into the surreal world of Sacred Heart Hospital, where the staff is bizarre and the laughter is contagious. Fresh-faced J.D. (Zach Braff) and his fellow new medical residents weave their way through each unpredictable day with hilarious results. SCRUBS is "a masterpiece," raves Matthew Gilbert of The Boston Globe. Now relive all 24 episodes of the groundbreaking show's highly acclaimed first season. With a host of great bonus features, including deleted scenes and a fascinating retrospective documentary, this spectacular three-DVD set is off-the-charts entertainment you'll want to watch over and over again. The sitcom may be flatlining, but as long as there are fresh and original series like Scrubs, the prognosis isn't entirely negative. Created by Bill Lawrence, Scrubs is an interns'-eye view of hospital life and the torturous, tragic, and triumphant route to becoming a doctor. The eminently likeable Zach Braff heads the cast as "newbie" J.D., whose years of medical school haven't quite prepared him for chaotic Sacred Heart Hospital. Family Guy has nothing on the live-action Scrubs when it comes to surreal asides and fantasy sequences (for example, J.D. literally becomes the proverbial deer in the headlights when he cannot answer a medical query), pop culture references, and TV Land casting (John Ritter guest stars as J.D.'s negligent father in "My Old Man," and St. Elsewhere veterans William Daniels, Ed Begley, Jr., Stephen Furst, and Eric Laneuville appear as Legionnaire's-stricken doctors in "My Sacrifical Clam"). With surgical precision, this inaugural season charts J.D.'s growth as a doctor and a human being, and the close-knit bonds he forms with his equally overwhelmed peers and colleagues, including best friend and surgeon Chris Turk (Donald Faison), beautiful, but raw-nerved and by-the-book Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke), and supportive nurse Carla Espinoza (Judy Reyes'), who affectionately nicknames J.D. "Bambi." But at the heart of the series is J.D.'s relationship with his mentor, Dr. Cox (an Emmy-worthy John C. McGinley), a cross between Obi-Wan Kenobi and a pit bull. Giving Scrubs a further shot of adrenaline are recurring characters Jordan (Christa Miller Lawrence), Dr. Cox's satanic ex- wife, and Neil Flynn as the Janitor, who torments J.D. just as Larry Miller menaced Jerry in the Seinfeld episode "The Doorman." Scrubs' animated sensibility allows for inexplicable cameos by Jimmie Walker or, at one point, an impromptu West Side Story-esque dance-off to convey the schism between the surgeons and other doctors. But while hilariously funny, Scrubs, too, can break your heart, as in the two-parter "My Occurrence"/"My Hero," with guest star Brendan Fraser as Jordan's spontaneously spirited brother, who is diagnosed with leukemia, and "My Old Lady," in which J.D., Elliot, and Chris experience for the first time losing a patient. Scrubs is one of NBC's few remaining "Must-See" series, but it has not been well-served by the network. Whether you're a "newbie" or devoted viewer, this DVD release is just what the doctor ordered. --Donald Liebenson

    • You gotta love the janitor. . .
Scrubs is one of those shows that doesn't get the ratings that it truly deserves, and because of that, often doesn't get the attention when it comes to recognition and award shows. That did change a little this year when the show received some nominations, and a look back at the first season shows where this smart and very funny show got its roots and how everything got started. The show follows the life of a trio of interns as they enter their first jobs at Sacred Heart hospital. Zach Braff is the series' main star, as he plays John J.D. Dorian, who provides the voice overs for much the show and additionally, the show is written mainly from his perspective, which is obvious by the titles of every episode: "My Hero," "My Last Day," etc. Braff is a great actor and this character really fits him well. In the first season, as a doctor probably is at that point in his life, J.D. is pretty nervous and unsure of himself. Braff projects that innocence, and as the season moves along, the growing confidence, very well. Donald Faison plays J.D.'s best friend Chris Turk, a surgical intern. The two roomates have been friends for years and their relationship serves as a great catalyst for both humerous moments and serious issues. Turk begins his relationship with nurse Carla Espinoza (Judy Reyes) in this very first season. Their chemistry is very good, and like the relationship with J.D. and Turk, serves as a great story line. Sarah Chalke is the third intern of the group, nervous Elliot Reed. She has serious issues in many walks of her life, including guys and her family. She is very unsure of herself, and of the three characters, remains the most unsure of herself as the season goes on. Her character is great and works well off of the rest of the cast. She and J.D.'s ever-changing relationship is just one more story that flows throughout the season, and as the years go on, through other seasons. John C. McGinley is great as Dr. Perry Cox, a senior doctor on the staff, who enjoys giving all the interns a hard time, but he finds J.D. particularly amusing, constantly referring to him as any number of girls' names. He does have a respect for the young doctor and that is shown at a number of points in the season, but his great comic chops are what make him one of the funniest guys on television. His back and forth with chief of staff Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins) is also a lot of fun. While he wasn't a credited star in the first season, one of the best characters on the show is the janitor, played by Neil Flynn. There really is no way to describe his sense of humor, you just have to see it for yourself. Recurring stars Sam Lloyd (Ted the lawyer), Robert Machio (The Todd) and Christa Miller-Lawrence (Jordan Sullivan, Cox's ex-wife) add some great moments to the show and guest stars Brendan Fraser and John Ritter are fantastic in their limited roles on the show. This set also includes a great stock of extras, including commentaries by creator Bill Lawrence and a number of different cast members. There is also a feature looking at the cast before they were "Scrubs," plus many interviews with crew and cast members. These extras really make this DVD set shine. For a great comedy, one that doesn't get the attention that it often deserves, pick up this set. It is well worth the price. ... show more

    • Arrested Development In A Hospital
I really wish that I had gotten into this show years ago. I didn't even see an episode until I bought this set, which came out just after the end of the fourth season. Yes, I try not to do "blind buys", but this set came very highly reccomended, and I really enjoy the other material by Zach Braff and Bill Lawrence. The show centers around Dr. John "J.D." Dorian (Braff), a medical intern at Sacred Heart Hospital, which is probably one of the craziest hospitals on Earth. Along with his best friend Chris Turk (Donald Faison), a surgical intern, and Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke), another medical intern, J.D. tries to make it through the days while having to deal with bizarre patients, nasty superiors, and an insane janitor (Neil Flynn) who can't seem to leave J.D. alone. Other cast-members include Nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes), who begins a relationship with Turk, Todd Quinlan (Robert Maschio), another surgical intern who becomes a friend of Turk's, and Ted the Lawyer (Sam Lloyd), a pathetic man who is constantly afraid of malpractice suits. Then there are the doctors. Dr. Perry Cox (John C. McGinley) is a self-hating cynic who, while appearing to be mean to J.D. and the other interns, really only wants them to succeed, and all of his criticism is (fairly) constructive. On the other hand is the evil Dr. Bob Kelso (Ken Jenkins). Kelso is a man who cares more about the money than the patients (as opposed to Cox, who hates the fact that medicine is now a "business"), and he looks for things that the interns do to criticize. This show has a very wacky kind of humor; utilizing sound effects, cutaways, and metaphors for jokes, almost anything is fair game. It may take a few minutes to get used to, but this is definitely one of the funniest shows that I've ever seen. The show makes good use of metaphors; sometimes when a character is speaking metaphorically, we see a cutaway scene showing the metaphor literally (like when J.D. compared the hospital to high school- medical interns are the geeks, surgical interns are the jocks, and nurses are the cheerleaders). Other times, when a character is speaking literally, we see a metaphorical cut scene. When I first heard about this show, I was unsure as to how the writers could successfully pull off a comedic medical show. I mean, there is a lot to make fun of, but things can easily be carried too far, especially when dealing with death. Fortunately, the writers and actors know when to switch from being comedic to being dramatic, and it gives the show a sense of dignity that many other shows do not have. In the extras department, we get some pretty good stuff. Deleted scenes that are actually funny (I like the one involving two patients who are mentally insane, and believe themselves to be Jesus and Satan), good outtakes, alternate line readings, and audio commentaries. In conclusion, this is a great boxed set. It is a definite must-own for Scrubs fans, and is worth checking out for someone who's never seen the show. ... show more
