Thanks for the thread, Val.

Dan!

And Cox vs Barbie. The episode should be good.

valeposh · 11-06-2007, 02:02 PM

Sure!

PS: I've updated the Board Guide with the links to the s7 episode discussions, do you think it's fine?

It will be cool to see Dan again. Does anyone know how man episodes this season will have? 19 comes to mind but I cant remember, I just know its going to be a shorter one. I'm just wondering when its going to finish.

Ellipsis · 11-06-2007, 02:43 PM

Oh, thanks for doing that. I completely forget about keeping the guide updated..

There will be 18 episodes.
Well, including this one, 16..

I can't wait to see another Elliot/Cox fight. Cox always brings out the craziness in her.

And Jordan's in this one!

Ellipsis · 11-06-2007, 04:14 PM

I just noticed that!
Wonder what she does..

Stil no Tedd though.

vespertine · 11-06-2007, 09:42 PM

I'm sure Ted will show up soon. I'm expecting big things from teddy this season.

Ellipsis · 11-06-2007, 09:56 PM

I dont know, Bill said that Teddy will be sweaty and sad forever, so I'm guessing thats what we'll get from him.

I don't mind all that much. He's best when he's sad.

valeposh · 11-07-2007, 01:22 PM

Poor Teddy. I miss his sweaty presence.

Dan is telling J.D. its time to grow up? That’s a shift. This must mean we're going to see a more successful Dan now, this make me happy. I like when Dr. Cox and Elliot go at it, except in his Story IV when they were arguing about Iraq. I hate when they bring politics into a comedy show, just ruins the mood of the show. Thank God the Janitor was there to keep it funny while making fun of J.D. I'm hoping to see Ted in this episode, or at least soon, and some more of Nurse Roberts' twin sister. I think that’s the twist they are going to use to bring her back, I could be wrong though. The Janitor should be funny in this one, he is the last person I would think to be environmentally conscious lol.

vespertine · 11-08-2007, 03:44 PM

Or maybe they'll just leave Nurse Robberts. When I read that they were gonna bring back old characters I just assumed we'd get one more look at them, like for insance I'm guessing this will be the last time we see Dan. Could be wrong...who knows.

TheJanitor86 · 11-08-2007, 08:07 PM

Awesome episode! We really got back to some classic Scrubs issues. Finally got some Ted and a successful Dan. Some really classic Dr. Cox scenes in this one, him and Elliot were hilarious. Gotta love the Janitor lol "Janitors aren't human." I'm hoping that we actually get to see the Janitors' girlfriend again. With this strike though, we may have to miss a lot of the great stuff they had planned for the season. They need to give the writers what they want sooner than later because I need a full 18 episodes of Scrubs!!!

Ellipsis · 11-08-2007, 10:08 PM

22 more minutes until I can watch it.

Glad you liked the episode though, that's great.
TEDDY'S BACK!

No Jelliot stuff then?

ETA:
First Commercial.
DAN!! His welcome was flippin awesome. So were the Tubby and Muscles Needed stamps. And ofcourse, Dr. Cox's white noise thing. And Ted!! Omg him and his mother seriously need some help, because that was just gross.
Loving the eppy so far! You weren't lying about the classic scrubs!

ETA number 2:

I honestly can't say how much I love this episode. It's frickin awesome! And good for Cox and Barbie fans.
Janitor being a green supporter, that's brilliant!
Dan telling JD to grow up, now that's just awesome.
Donald is probably the best physical comedian ever, seriously..

And JD trying ot break the car windshield...

ETA 3:

Oh wow, that's a great episode. It really is, one of my classics. Seeing JD with Sammy was just the cutest thing ever, and when they were driving back and Dan said Sammy looked like their father, such a nice moment between the two. Absolutely perfect.
