(Zach Braff), a wacky medical intern at Sacred Heart Hospital, and his friends and colleagues: his confident best friend Turk, neurotic fellow intern Elliot, tough nurse Carla, and their supervisor, the cruel Dr. Cox. Unlike many sitcoms, SCRUBS employs a structure of continuing plotlines and developing characters, like many dramas will. It also combines verbal wit, slapstick humor, and fantasy sequences in order to garner laughs--a strange but effective combination that suggests a skewed version of reality. SCRUBS: THE COMPLETE FIRST SEASON features 24 episodes, with guest stars as diverse as John Ritter, R. Lee Ermey, Scott Foley, and Brendan Fraser. [More]

    [V]eers from the profoundly silly to the achingly poignant, often in the same scene...

    Frankly I've no idea how the Scrubs writers and directors are able to balance such silly humor with so much sincere heart - but I'm sure not complaining.
