JD Plays the Godfather

Thankfully, we didn't have to watch the Scrubs finale worrying whether anything left unanswered would never be resolved. We learned this week at NBC's schedule presentation that the show will be returning for its final season. Now that that worry was out of the way, we could move on more important nail-biting questions such as whether JD and Kim will make it work or if Eliot will decide if she's ready to marry Keith (probably not, but she needs to come to the conclusion herself). And just because the writers like to toy with us, we had an episode ending moment that will leave us pondering the future of all of these relationships, including the possibly rekindled JD and Eliot. I would love to see them end up together once they have both matured enough to handle a serious, committed relationship. Until then, it's fun to sit back and laugh at all the crazy things that happen in both of their lives, and those of rest of the characters of TV's best comedy. Last night, we had: Carla's Eliot Radar, JD constantly ditching Kim, the sad realization that Kokomo, where "we'll get there fast, and then we'll take it slow," only exists in the minds of The Beach Boys, Eliot's obsession with Ronnie's mother stories, Turk's Ugly Betty picture, the new term "Coxian" - a clever combination of Cox and Dorian, Eliot's control freak bachelorette party, Dr. Cox's desperation to get JD to relinquish his godfather role, JD and Turk finishing each other's sentences, Janitor's Brain Trust, and Ted channeling Eliot. There were far too many laughs for a half hour, so the network was kind enough to give us a full one, which means this week's edition of The Scrubies is SUPERSIZED! And now for the final time this season, here's a look at last night's best, funniest and all around awesome lines in this super-sized edition of the Scrubies...

The Scrubies!!!

"Pregnant women are among a select group of people who are actually allowed to act insane much like sports mascots, local weather men, theme park performers and that guy with the question mark jacket who teaches people how to get free money from the government." Dr. Cox to JD after learning what Kim did to him

"Let me phrase my response in the form of a riddle: What's black and white and should never ever, ever be allowed inside of a hospital?" Dr. Cox to JD and Turk after JD ask for his advice on a case

"It's got to have a bathroom with a bidet because I can not wear my going out thong if I have sand in my patootie." Eliot to JD while they were researching honeymoon locales online

"I've seen The Wiggles live in concert. Twice." Dr. Cox to JD regarding how a baby changes everything in your life
"Did they perform 'Big Red Car'?" Turk to Dr. Cox
"They opened and closed the show with it. It was awesome." Dr. Cox

"Keith, it's impossible to fit all of the Dudemeisters at one table without our wedding looking like Octoberfest! Plus, when our families met last month, my mom ended up doinking your Uncle Ronald in our basement." Eliot to Keith on why their families can't sit together at the wedding

"Jordan, here's some things I'd rather see happen then dinkus over there becoming the godfather: a nuclear war, a sequel to 'Hope Floats,' Hugh Jackman winning an Oscar..." Dr. Cox
"Yeah, yeah. Funny long list. We get it. You need a new thing, big guy." Dr. Kelso interrupting

"What, you gonna get all up in Jesus' face cause he don't have his shirt on?" Turk to Carla after she got mad at him for wearing a bloody scrub top to Dr. Cox's daughter's christening


Well there you have it - the last edition of the Scrubies of the season. But don't worry because when Scrubs returns next season, so too will the Scrubies. If you have a line that you would like to nominate for a Scrubie, be sure to leave me a comment and I'll publish it in a future edition. If you missed this hilarious outing, check it out on iTunes.

Well, another great season of Scrubs comes to an end! I too would love to see JD and Eliot eventually end up together. By the way, how cute is Carla and Turk's baby Issie?!? Looking forward to the Scrubies next season.
