Real DOCTOR reacts to SCRUBS 5 // S8E2 "My Last Words" 

Always upvote Terry Pratchett.

In short, we got to fatten death up and make it lazy as fuck. Duly noted. I don't mean fatten him up with deaths if that was what ya be thinking.

@@Elmithian Please don't do that to Death. He's a good man.

Did you notice after George points out that "foxy little dish over there" and JD has his space out moment the pen in his pocket changed to a hotdog for the rest of the scene?

Same here multiple episodes made me tear up then bust out laughing and then bawling again. One of my favorite sitcoms of all time if not my most favorite sitcom.

In DVD commentary really early on in the series, the creator stated that they wanted to have three or four more serious episodes per season, and they clearly followed through with that. Even better, they let the heavier moments have the proper impact, rather than cutting the tension with more jokes (I'm looking at you, That 70s Show).

@@Alakaizer Across all mediums, I think it's a serious issue writers have. I can't say why, maybe because they're worried all the sadness will drive people from the show, but they just can't seem to let something just be what it is: shitty. Scrubs, while not my favorite show ever, certainly understood that to convey important things like this, you have to let it hurt. Because it does.

Comedy is a necessary counterweight to tragedy. If you don't have a world that makes you smile and fills you with joy, then you won't feel the pain of loss when parts of that world are taken away.

One of the very few shows I bought the dvds for.

Was thinking the same

You have exceeded the maximum number of allowable skills.

@@lincolnsand5127 Did correcting a stranger's innocent little mistake made you feel better about yourself?

@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 yes

Agreed! Medicine and guitar skills is too much. My aunt graduated from medical school, but chose not to be a doctor, she wanted to be a concert pianist. And she did. So I'm pretty sure if you made it through medical school, you have to be pretty creative sometimes, so I'm sure that's why you also have an artist persona too. Sometimes you are forced a certain way by your parents. She finally was like "mom, I can be a doctor anytime...I can only be a pianist until my body develops arthritis!"

I got all the opposite, so i guess balance in all things?

He is definitely going to make some girl’s mother very, very happy.

@@JageshemashFTW Honestly, if I would really know him and live close enough to each other, I would propose to him right this minute.

Agreed! It's beyond me, how has he no ring on his finger?! 😁

Hehe. Zach Braff will be super pleased with this I bet

That's what I thought, too.

Yes! Zach Braff with a bit of Benedict Cumberbatch (Dr Strange)

Or Kenny in "my life in 4 cameras" 😁

WebMD doesn't diagnose, though. That exaggerated diagnosing is done by the person diagnosing themself. There'd be nothing to react to there -- he'd just be reading a bunch of lists of symptoms for different diseases.

no one: WebMD: you have cancer :)

I had a Doctor once pull up WebMD and put in my symptoms in there to diagnose me... yay military contract docs!

It gives you a list of possibilities. If you use it to diagnose yourself instead of going to a doctor, or settle on the worst possibility when dry skin, use lotion was at the top, you're the one to blame, not the site.

He is too pure for this world! ♡

No he's just British

I'm fairly sure he's just gay.

@@WolfbloodJakeWilliams I understood that reference!

I want to hear that.

I watched a debate on assisted suicide in Briton and I was frustrated with the anti advocates ignoring what the pro side where saying, while the pro advocates where going way beyond to listen and respond compationatly to the points of the anti side. Anti included a disabled woman claiming she would be forced into euthanasia, a Catholic Archbishop proposing his beliefs should be forced on everybody and one other person. Pro had a Swiss doctor who brought literature about the safegards to protect people, a terminally ill person aproching a prolonged slow death and a Minister from a different religious sect arguing for individual choice. IMO it is not a matter of if it should be legal, only what the rules should be to keep people from making decissions when they are not in their right mind.

@@rarrmonkey I have pretty strong feelings about that. 10 years ago I watched my Mum die from a combination of Multiple Sclerosis and Motor Neurone Disease. It was both fast and painfully slow. 1 year she was out hiking with us etc and a year later she was trapped in her body unable to communicate and slowly dying. We spent her last few weeks basically living in the hospital in her room waiting for the inevitable. I can't speak of what her choice may have been but I imagine her losing everything like that must have been horrific for her and I doubt she wanted to be trapped like that for so long (she basically lost control of most of her body a few months before her death and couldn't even swallow). I didn't really have an opinion before that but I know know that if I end up in a similar situation I want to go on my terms - as things stand that means suicide and I'm OK with that. I can understand people being worried about being pressured into it etc but I've also experienced first hand the suffering caused by things going on and on whilst the body refuses to give up. I know people will disagree and opinions are one of those polarising things but assuming legislation is in effect to safeguard vulnerable people who may be pressured, I think it should be legal.

@@PolarBear4 I don't know if you understood my position, or I don't understand your reply. I was saying the debate is only how the law permitting assisted suicide should be defined. All arguments I've encountered against assisted suicide are either flat out wrong or can be addressed with appropriate laws. I don't personally believe someone who is under the influence of mind altering drugs like LSD can make an informed decision. That is the kind of laws I'm talking about. My 5 year old niece died in October from a DIPG and I don't know how society legislates with regard to children suffering from terminal conditions. This is the debate I care about.

OTOH, I know of a couple who ended their lives together. They were older but actually quite healthy, and living comfortably too. I think the husband wanted to make some sort of point about "the right to die", and his wife went along because of folie a deux. So euthanasia laws should also have some sort of provision for vain stupidity.

Long live the NHS! Frenchy frog here ^^

The doctors and nurses were there* the NHS is just a way of paying them and their equipment

@@duckmeat4674 well thank goodness they didn't have to fight insurance companies for care. As a US citizen living in Germany, I NEVER want to go back to the US.

Kgv13 M ok your profile pic may be a concern

@@user-fc9cp1wo5t can I ask why?

@@kgv13m66 Tumblr Art in general is a concern

@@Tech-hn4pw You enjoying grade school their kiddo? The real world is going to be an eye opener for you.

In America we have insurance for everyone. The hospital will check for you to see if you qualify for either medicaid or charity care. So not having insurance and complaining about it is just bull shit.

@@colleendianuzzo Is that why people have to raise money on crowdfunding sites to pay for treatments and basic cares? How taking an ambulance to the hospital costs a person thousands? Insurances don't cover everything, even the free insurance. It is a flawed system, been proven to be one. Complaining about it and demanding change is actually very fair.

@Dr Hope's Sick Notes Sounds like the perfect ground for a blues album, or even an EP perhaps!

Same. His content is so bang on that often I will watch a full episode, eager to hear what input he has to say and reflect on it once the video is done

With all due respect, its LITERALLY one of the highest rated episodes of the show!

Idk, Grey's Anatomy is a DAMN close second

Kai Sea I absolutely agree with you. We have similar experiences with my grandparents. It's cruel and hypocritical. I also have the same question bugging me: we claim that humans are above animals (roughly speaking), but animals often have more decent and fast/merciful death than us, people...

@@yevgeniyaleshchenko849 Not that I disagree with you.... BUT in nature there are animals that eat their prey alive, sometimes *butt-first*. Others that suffocate or drown their prey. Others that paralyze and inject their spawn inside their prey so that their young can eat them from the inside (again, while still alive). Again, I am also in favor of voluntary euthanasia (in my case, because I don't want to become a burden to my family, so they wont suffer, and also I won't have to see them suffer because of me, that's one of my biggest fears); but nature is freaking scary sometimes!

Same in Italy. We have to thank to Vatican for that. Eutanasia is also a huge political issue here tackled every time when some right wing politician needs fast votes. Makes me wanna vomit. I would take them to a hospital seeing an actual person duying in agony of some terminal illness without dignity or relief.

Here is the thing, how do you know it will not be a slippery slope. There is a say “how do you boil a frog?,,slowly “. In one of the Nordic countries had a young girl about 15 who had depression. She fought to be a part of euthanasia. She won, there have been stories of elderly folks who had dementia and their family pressured them to get it. As a Catholic, you’re life ends when it is your time, yes you suffer but that is apart of life.

@@MrSophire In my opinion religion should never be a part of the talk about euthanasia. I think that people should be free to decide how they want to end their life. We are talking about dignity here. I remember the case of the 15 yrs old girl with depression, and from expereince I know that depression has many shades and it is quite a nasty thing to have. I cannot decide for her, I can decide for me. In switzerland is it legal, but not that easy to obtain. These is a board of doctors and other specialists who decide if it should be granted and it costs a lot. That is why I will have my biological testament done. I never asked anyone to be born, I can surely decide how I want to go.

it is actually a thing where those with British accents sound american when singing

Is that a for real fact? If so, kudos to his taste and humor! That's really neat!

I've had these same thoughts about death and yet I still can't help but feel scared thinking about the end. It's not something I can seem to rationalize away, but it's a small comfort knowing that most people are the same way about it.

This reminds me of a quote from the movie, Donnie Darko. "I can only hope that the answers will come to me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, that I can breathe a sigh of relief, because there will be so much to look forward to."

I can't agree more althought I'm french but the NHS is closer to what we have! The US system is a non sense!

That one was done before this one I think
