Show Description:
This weekly NBC comedy drama Scrubs was created by Bill Lawrence, late of Spin City. The serie offeres a skewered view of life in a big-city hospital, as seen through the eyes of a group of interns fresh out of medical school. Zach Braff heads the cast as J.D. Dorian, who in addition to deflecting the patronizing comments of the "established" doctors and the tongue-clucking of the more experienced nurses, also has to deal with the social situations brought about by two fellow interns: his best friend Chris Turk (Donald Faison) and the competitive yet insecure Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke). Also on hand is the ever-reliable John C. McGinley as gimlet-eyed Dr. Phil Cox, who despite his huffing and puffing genuinely cares about the greenhorn interns placed in his charge, and Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes), a good-hearted nurse who catches the eye of Turk. Scrubs aired for the first time in the end of 2001, and has developed itself and it's characters very smoothly into a show which must not and cannot be missed.
