Scrubs: Season 01 (2001)

Synopsis of Scrubs: Season 01

Season one of the NBC hospital "dramedy" Scrubs gets underway with Dr. J.D. Dorian's (Zach Braff) first day as an intern at Sacred Heart Hospital, with his best friend and roommate, Dr. Chris Turk (Donald Faison), at his side. Nicknamed "Bambi" by the Sacred Heart nurses because of his wide-eyed naïveté, J.D. takes his orders from the deceptively avuncular chief of medicine, Dr. Robert Kelso (Ken Jenkins), and from the loud, obnoxious, and highly contrary Dr. Perry Cox (John C. McGinley). J.D. is enamored of sexy Dr. Elliot Reid (Sarah Chalke), and it is with brassy "mother hen" nurse Carla Espinosa (Judy Reyes) that Turk has a serious hospital romance. The scrubs' first year on the job is festooned with a variety of sobering experiences, ranging from sudden and unexpected death to nuisance lawsuits. Also, J.D. launches his ongoing war of nerves with Sacred Heart's caustic janitor (Neil Flynn), a man of many mysteries and eccentricties. Along the way, J.D. has a brief fling with hospital board member Jordan Sullivan (Christa Miller), who, unfortunately for him, turns out to be the combustible Dr. Cox's ex-wife. And on a happier note, J.D.'s dream of getting Elliott in the sack finally comes true...but be careful what you wish for. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
