That make him that much more of a beast. (If it's true, no reason to doubt you but you know, skepticism while there's lack of evidence) the Janitor is one of my favorite characters from any show
+simone4447 a bit late but; yeah he was only meant to be in one episode, they liked him and the connection with Zach braff so much that they casted him as a permanent member
+simone4447 yes also originally he was meant to disappear at the end of season 1 and was supposed to be only in jds mind but then they decided to use him as jds nemesis
How do you propose one sets future goals and develops as a person without wishes of what the future brings? A life without wishing is a life of static mediocrity.
Perspective is important. It’s good to have some fantasy, dreams, goals, and aspirations but we cannot become swallowed by it to the point we just sit around moping. That’s the mistake Eliot made she has the ability, the choice, and the freedom to change for the better but got so wrapped in self pity she lost sight of what was important and what was in her control to correct or change. She sat around just wishing and wallowing sad but took no steps to make those wishes come true or bothered to evaluate that if those wishes were really what she wanted or even needed.
Ironically, Scrubs is the only medical show I can remember where the characters’ daily activities would NOT have resulted in an absolute hurricane of litigation.
I think the janitor fucks with people in the ways that are best for them and help them grow thr most. He screws with jd who needs to learn to suck it the fuck up when life gets hard which is why his moments of lucidity come right after jd bares his teeth, he is kind to eliot when she has a bad time with her self esteme, helps her change her look, he shows kelso that hes not invincible and that he needs to change into a better person, he developes friendship with the socially recluse dr cox, he creates nonsensical rivalries with turk, hes the first person to treat ted as a an actual human being and later helps him get his girfriend and some individuality, hes the only person who can instill humility in carla, hes quite possibly one of the most effective characters in the entire series!
the guy is a pure genius and improvises indeed, and that makes him perfectly natural. overall all actors and actresses are amazing in Scrubs obvioulsy (i love Kelsoooooooooo!!!!) but janitor is one of a kind! the one with the brother is hilarious
prepareuranus his grandma raised him like he was her son, and told him his mom and dad were also her kids(one of which was obviously)...weird but not that fucked up
He actually told the story of Jack Nicholson. Nicholson was raised by his grandma, thinking she was his mother. Years later he discovered that the woman he held for his older sister was in truth his mother.
Drogan Stiegsson Wow... Despite how much I hate conservative cultures, sometimes I'm thankful for being born in one because of how rare things like this happen O_O
0:27 the janitor surprises JD by knowing about his first kiss ever. Jd had his first kiss with a girl name sarah briggs "at the embarrassing age" of 16. my first kiss was with a girl named sarah briggs too! but i was 17. :( lol
8:34. When my friend and I were rebuilding a bike, he took apart the back shifter and got working too fast without making a plan. This was him about 1 hour after he took it apart.
believe it or not scrubs is rated as being the most realistic medical show out there. most medical shows have unrealistic doctors and make it seem that completely crazy medical conditions happen every day aka "house". scrubs is realistic because it shows real medical stuff aka old peoplr conditions, your usual viral and bacterial conditions, and cancers and occasionally something unusual. thats more like a hospital as well as the doctors being more realistic.
ok so follow me on this. The Janitor's name is Neil Flynn. Yes I know it's the name of the actor himself, but the show confirms that the janitor and the actor Neil Flynn are one in the same. So Neil Flynn gave up his acting career and became a Janitor for sacred heart.
I read this fun theory that the Janitor owns the hospital and he does what he does because he’s incredibly bored. Highly unlikely bordering on impossible, yes. But it’s fun to think so.
When the night stick joke gets set up, I KNOW Turk is going to ask "was he a cop?" and then Janitor was going to answer with something ridiculous. It was a clean setup that I knew was coming... And I still choked by laughing at the janitor's answer.
If janitor would have improvised a sea world joke for the night stick(seal clubbing) with elliot having dated shawn(trainer at seaworld) woulda been a masterpiece
A little late but how good is “Holy sh-“ “shhhhhh”. Didn’t realize how close they got to swearing on network tv there, good job scrubs. Like that easily could have been a moment where the audience goes ah ya they can’t sweat but it felt totally natural.
+MyNephewIsTough yes it is. he was a janitor(through scrubs) then as he got older (should have matured earlier) was matured and had a family (through the middle) I like the middle better
but it all doesn't really matter cuz all of this will pass away but the word of God will not pass away. the best thing to do is research the truth. and that truth is how Jesus Christ died on the cross so we can live after our life in the flesh is up. repent of all sins and pray to God. he is faithful to those who reach our to him. but he reaches out to all of you through people who truly believe. like me
So the janitor's mother had him to her brother at say twelve so she's be twenty-four when he was twelve his grandmother would tell him that advice then die shortly after?
