101 Facts About Scrubs 

Rest in Peace, Sam Lloyd.

JD only said that he's "lefty" in one reality of the "butterfly effect" episode to cover his embarrassment when he didn't catch a pen. However in the second reality of the same butterfly episode he didn't catch a pen again and said that he is "righty". So we don't actually know which one is real

I dont care that shes the creator's wife Jordan was an amazing and hilarious character. the actress played the perfect Jordan

We all know The Janitors name is Jan Itor/Itór....

eliott is the kind of person to apologise to a bin for bumping into it....the janitor could still be imaginary

Scrubs could make you cry one scene and cry with laughter the next

Fact 91: The Grimm Reaper is featured in one episode as a sort-of coworker in the hospital, because dying is so common in a hospital. Well at least in a daydream of JD

This is the only sitcom that I have ever watched in my life where I would often find myself crying with laughter and then just plain crying. From one moment to the next, it could truly pack an emotional punch. I suppose that this would best be put down to great writing, because I don't know what else it would be to which it could be ascribed, and whence then came all of the emotional resonance on display in so many episodes. Good job, Sam...if, indeed, that is your real name!

One of the funniest shows ever

My favorite episode was Sarah chalk sitting on the toilet, on the rooftop, as the med helicopter comes down!

Not one fact about Dr Kelso 😢

RIP Sam loyd

Neil Flynn appeared in all but 1 episode in season 1. He filmed for the whole season, but was edited out of 1 episode so he could be classified as a guest-star rather than a full cast member.

"Now I've been called a great number of horrible names in my life: backstabber... zebra poacher... Josh..." Bill Lawrence did state that Glen Matthews is his actual name though.

2001. Wow nineteen years ago. Time flies.

Ted did get his name in the first season. Dr. Kelso calls him Tad and he quickly corrects him and says his name is Ted.

I can't do this all on my own... No, I know. I'm no Superman Definitely in my Top 10 series of all time.

Actually, "Die Anfänger" is just a subtitle here in Germany. It's "Scrubs - Die Anfänger". But no one here calls it "Die Anfänger" or would immediately know what you're talking about, if you referred to the show like that. Just say Scrubs.

Maybe you correct this later, but most fans no season 9 was not Bill Lawrence's choice. He is even on record stating that he considers it a spin off instead of another season.

Best comedy sitcom ever...

In an early episode JD has a fantasy of the Grim reaper "hanging out" at the hospital, having a rather relaxed personality. That's why he shows up in the finale.

So when Elliot spills her coffee. She doesn’t look at the janitor directly. She could be saying “sorry” in a sarcastic way to Turk for “Annoying him” keeping the illusion the janitor is in JDs head alive, I this season.

19:00 hooch is crazy

Been feeling like crap lately and didn't know how much I needed to watch this. JD & Turk beat my darkness again.

5 6 7 8 ......

Just finished watching the final episode of season 8 yesterday. Loved every minute of the show. Don't think I'll watch season 9. I feel it ended so perfectly. Also if you live in the UK or Ireland, you can watch it all for free on All 4 :)

The one about "My Musical" is wrong. For most of the episode she's standing still, leaning on stuff or sitting. Her dance was filmed weeks later, once she'd healed a bit more.

I loved this show. Thanks for creating a video about it. It was a show that had you laughing so hard you were crying one second, and then just plain crying the next. It had a ton of heart. The podcast is really really good if anyone is interested.

15:40 actually „hoży doktorzy” means „sick doctors” and it is purposefully spelled wrong to emphasize the madness. The correct spelling is “Chorzy doktorzy”.

The little show that could. A masterpiece.

God was it almost 20 years ago this phenomenal show started... Time flies...

Dr. Cox is my spirit animal

There’s another clue to the twist about Bens death. In the scene where Elliot is talking to Cox and Ben is moving her like a puppet; there is a sign behind Ben saying “Pay Attention” and Elliot doesn’t react to Ben because she can’t see him

Bill Lawrence also wrote Spin City with Michael J. Fox who appeared as a guest star in Scrubs. And yes should have stopped after season 8 as Season 9 is crap. Also Murphy's Law is named after an American test pilot who was the first to break the sound barrier, originally it is known and still is in UK as Sod's Law.

The Nostalgia

Sarah Chalke actually said that the JD/Elliot stunt doubles that got married had split recently :(

Rob Maschio didn't invent the term "trisexual". That joke has been around longer than the show has.

Scrubs is and always will be amazing, it literally made you go through all the emotions every episode. Great writing and actors combined! Love the Vid Sam from 101 facts, sick guy! 👌🤙

Loved the SOAD reference. :)

I miss Scrubs sooo much!! Who else loved this show??

Just finished listening to the podcast “Fake Doctors, Real Friends” and it really brought me back to some good times. This show was so much fun to watch when it came out!

There are so many more facts about the show not mentioned for a Part 2. Which I hope you make.

The Janitor was also one of the construction workers they cut to for commentary, in Major League. Another great bit part!

Scrubs will always have only 8 seasons! Season 9 is a joke to everyone who watched the full series

Per bill lawrence, dr. jan itor was absent from one season one episode because he did not have a series regular contract as he did not audition for the role. lawrence talked the studio into making him a regular in season 2. It was discussed during an episode of the braff and faison "real friends, fake doctors" podcast

Hattie Wilson stars as Turk's mom, Margaret. Hattie is most known for her role on Becker, where she also played a character named Margaret.

12:21 holy crap i loved the janitor before this fact but now... He deserves an oscar! That is fucking talent right there.

This show actually got me through Medschool!!!

The Janitor gave his name as Glenn Matthews but right after answered to another name someone called him.

Dr. Cox Dr. Kelsoe The Janitor

Best series ever

Thumbs up if "my lunch" is your favorite episode of any show ever!

You missed a fact. Dr cox and jordon son jack was played by bill Lawrence and Christa Miller (jordon) son William

Turk looks like a skinny Daniel Cormier.

Elliot doesn't necessarily spoil the whole 'imaginary janitor' joke, if you watch carefully she doesn't address him directly, they could always have gone back and revealed she was speaking to some else offscreen.

About fact 86, People thought that when Rowdy came back in season 6 was when they found him, but in "Fake Doctors, Real Friends" they revealed that they found Rowdy pretty quickly after it was hidden. It is still why they got Steven, but I just wanted to point that out.

So 87 is wrong I'm pretty sure. For the most part, judy is either sitting or standing stationary for her parts. "For the last time, I'm Dominican" was filmed much later as evidence by Stephanie D'Abruzzo much longer hair that could have been cut due to other work commitments.

So, since Community and Cougar town are in the same universe, and Scrubs and Cougar town are in the same universe, it follows that so are Scrubs and Community?

You deserve alot more subs. Your videos are well edited and nice to watch. Hope you reach 1mil soon:)

The grim reaper was from that one fantasy where he was talking about how death is always there at the hospital and it's JD waving to the grim reaper as he sips coffee and says, "morning"

Well I'm off to binge watch Scrubs now!

the grim reaper appeared with the other characters because he appeared at least 2 times. once with his daughter and once playing a board game with JD.

Department of destruction good band name

One of my favorite shows, I need to revisit it.

Fun mini fact about 916. Yeah, in my early childhood my home town was legally forced to trade that area code to Sacramento for one of theirs. Second Ellie could have a shared delusion moment of the janitor, given what stress her head was going through.

The Jordan actress was also Kate on Drew Carey

Why does Zach Braff trying to steal Rowdy just seem right?

Fun fact: In seasons 3/5, Dr Cox is seen with facial hair. Both times he was going through a hard time because he lost people or felt depressed, depression hair I guess. When he lost Ben and 3 patients to rabies. Only two times he had a beard in the show. Also, in season 5 when JD helps Perry overcome his guilt for the patient’s deaths, he calls him by his actual name...JD. I’m 99% sure this was the only time he did so. Love this show

You said my name, I feel validated

I know what I must binge watch again again and again

You can tell he listens to the podcast

Fact number 102. Hooch went insane and killed someone drove all the way across the country to get away from the cops. Then started working for the Tipton Hotel if you actually pay attention you can see glimpses of his old self when he really looses his shit

Can't wait for the default dance comments

Because the Janitor is awesome. That's why.

R.I.P ted

Looking back on Scrubs in 2020 makes me realize how many sexist/racist jokes were on that show. They put Zach Braff in black/brownface quite a bit. Not to mention Dr. Cox calling JD by a girl's name at every opportunity. It sucks, because the show had good enough writers that it could have been just as funny without them feeding into that kind of thing. That said, it's still an incredible piece of television history. My Lunch and My Screw Up are right up there with some of the saddest TV episodes I've ever seen.

I like how most of these are just revealed by DVD commentary lol

102 - Scrubs cancelled some episodes on digital platforms, hence why you should always go physical when you can. If you don’t want your shows/movies retroactively edited _cough_ Star Wars _cough_ or lost to time and licensing, you gotta go DVD or BluRay. Get a good ripper and have the best of both worlds. If you don’t think there will be a cottage industry in offense archaeology that gets more stuff retroactively cancelled, you have not been paying attention.

You should have started the facts about the toddster at 69

Great video but not much about Dr. Kelso in it. Why not?

Sam lloyd R.I.P.

RIP Sam Loyd

About #22: university shown on video is NTUU «KPI» (National Technical University of Ukraine «Kyiv Polytechnic Institute») building #4 (or maybe #1 😅)

15:40 actually the Polish title is a bit smarter than this. It's a world play. It may mean Fresh doctors the way it's written, but when said out loud, it also means "Sick Doctors" (and you're not able to say which one it really is until you see the title written down).

i haven't watched this show in years. i remember loving it though

Found out recently that Zack never had a real apple tinie till years after the show was Scrubed.

Ooooo can’t wait to watch :)

I didn't know of this show til 2007,thats when i started watching.though i did like season 9,that season is hated by most fans of the series

It's the janitor :D but only because I met Neil Flinn in Los Angeles once and he was so nice and grounded.

The fact that you referenced BYOB makes me so happy

I just started watching Scrubs again. What a timing 🥳

00:03 How did ya miss out Jennifer? Lol.

My personal favorite episode is "My Lunch." I think John C. McGinley's acting in that episode is still the best. As a side note where is the series streaming?

Guys, I found yesterday a podcast about Scrubs with Zach (JD) and Donald (Turk). Fake Doctors, Real Friends. They rewatch Scrubs and talking about the show and the cast.

R.I.P Ted

Cox, Janitor then Kelso

My chopped liver is thee best episode

I just got done watcbing the whole series a few months ago lol

“My Rabbit” is a reference to “Harvey” with Jimmy Stewart.

In Fact 63 is a mistake. Polish title of show don't mean Fresh Doctors but Sick Doctors with word sick is spelled with intentional typo (correct is Chorzy not Hoży). It was one of worst decision of CC Poland to change title. Stupid and it's holding it still even now Scrubs are shown at FX Comedy
