So, last Thursday I was stuck in the office (ok, not stuck, but still...) when Scrubs came on, so even though it was on our TV, I couldn't pay attention to the whole thing.

As of last night, I have been able to watch it and now I plan to share my thoughts. I am going to assume that you, too, have seen the episode, so if you haven't and plan to, don't continue raeding.

First off - oh my God! Laverne was back! I know she just made a tiny appearance but I was so psyched to see her. And I loved how JD was like "she seems familiar."

Overall, I feel like the stories aren't spending as much time on comedy because they have to spend too much time on plot development. I guess this is because they have to resolve story lines since this is the last season. I hope now that Sam is born they will be able to have more comedy.

I think my favorite parts were with Elliot, even though she was on screen for a total of like, three minutes.
"Keith, I know I ruined your life, you can stop calling me." (crying on the other end) "Oh! Hi Kim!"
That was pretty funny.

As a side note, I think that Keith's "Oh, that's disgusting" is pretty lame. The first one, with the open neck wound comment was funny, but the second one was just kind of misplaced.

One final thought: I was quite disappointed when JD asked Cox "Would you be proud if I were your son?" and Cox replied "This conversation is over." I was kind of hoping that his response would be one of those rare moments when he's almost kind to JD and that he would have said something that could be interpreted as a "yes." Oh well, I guess I have a few more episodes to hope he'll be nice.

That's all I got for now. We'll talk more after next Thursday's show.
