Ronnie...
Did "Dr. Cox" leave the show last night?? Sure seemed to be the
suggestion....

David...
He's in all the remaining episodes.


GarondoMarondo...
He seemed to have phoned that whole performance in last night.

..
Garondo Marondo!


karl...
I thought that too. Though I imagine if so it will be more of the type of
'leaving' Elliot's Fellowship was.

mchary...
I rather imagine the next episode will be about convincing him to come
back.


Mike H...
Doubt it. Scrubs needs John C. McGinly and Neil Flynn more than it does
Zach Braff (imho) Tho it'd be harmed by his loss too.


mutefan...
I don't know, but this was the first episode of Scrubs I can honestly
say sucked. John McGinley is the least funny actor on the show. In

karl...
I thought it was OK, not great. Certainly better than last weeks which I
found a snoozer. This weeks episode reminded of the one from a previous
season where JD narrates that the odds of someone dieing on any given day
are 1 in three and then they follow three cases and you're wondering which
will die.


karl...
A matter of taste. I think is delivery is fantastic when he gets on one of
those long convoluted put-downs. His chemistry with his ex-wife is good as

Mike H...
I agree, He and the Janitor are the best characters on the show, at least
with the interaction with JD added. I'd give the show a better chance
surviving loosing Zach than John or Neil.

well.

fact, he's not funny at all. I'd watch Zach Braff read the phone book;

Ronnie...
For the first couple of seasons, I thought it was a travesty that he
wasn't Emmy-nominated for Supporting Actor in a Comedy. Could have
been this generation's John Laroquette. But then they started
writing his character more broadly, and it didn't resonate in the
same way. Less emphasis on the abusive personality being a "coping
mechanism," and more about his nastiness just being used to add zip
and zim to the show's energy. Fewer scenes -- last night excepted --
where we get to peek behind the mask.

he's like Jason Lee, and it's only his reactions to Cox' abuse that
makes McGinley tolerable. I wouldn't mind at all if he left.

If Donald Faison is the CEO, I'd also watch him read the phone book.
He wasn't even on last night.
