'Scrubs' Goes Medieval

That. Was. AWESOME!!! So awesome, that I'm willing to overlook the random "Dr. Kelso's back and seems to have never left" weirdness (which, I can only explain away by assuming NBC aired the episodes out of order). But seriously, who cares. There was too much awesomeness during this Princess Bride-inspired outing to let something like network idiocy spoil the fun. And oh what fun is was! If there was ever a need for proof as to why this show deserves a proper send off, this was it. The entire fairytale backdrop was beyond incredible. It was funny, clever, original and well, simply hilarious! You know what else was hilarious? Everything from the gang staying still so The Todd gets confused, Keith continuing to agonize over Elliot, JD's gloating, the Lost smoke monster making a cameo, "Turla" and their alternating words and shared female problems, "Sasha" the scooter playing the part of the donkey, Janitor as the giant, Village Idiot (JD) and Princess (Elliot) trying to kiss but not being able to reach because they're shackled to the dungeon wall, Laverne, and every single awesome detail of the fairytale story. Here's this week's best, funniest and all around awesome lines in this edition of the Scrubies [NOTE: Every line should have been nominated, but in the interest of time, here is just a sampling].

The Scrubies
"Much like one-hit-wonder Natalie Imbruglia, I'm torn." Dr. Cox to JD and Turk on child rearing

"What's the monster like? Is he nice??" Village Idiot (JD) to the Brave Knight (Perry) after Brave Knight gets beaten

"Are you outta your mind, woman?! We only got one ball!" Turk to Carla while they were joined together as "Turla"

"Your ass is bleeding." Princess (Elliot) to Village Idiot (JD) while riding his donkey Sasha
"Sasha!! Are you OK?" Village Idiot
"No, Idiot. Your ass is bleeding." Princess

"To Sasha!" JD after finding the Golden Ring

If you have a line that you would like to nominate for a Scrubie, be sure to leave me a comment.
