“My ABCs” and “My Cookie Pants” January 27th, 2009 I knew something was off when I was watching, especially, the first episode of last night’s Scrubs doubleheader. J.D. and Elliot didn’t seem particularly close despite getting back together last week, the interns ...

Filed under: OpEd, Scrubs, Episode Reviews, Reality-Free (S08E06) This episode was a little better than "My ABC's," but not by much. I don't know what it is, but I just didn't laugh all that much during either of these episodes. At least this one dug into some good character-based stories, from Cox ...

Filed under: OpEd, Scrubs, Episode Reviews, Reality-Free (S08E05) After four episodes that have ranged from the pretty-decent to the almost-classic, we start this week's double-shot of Scrubs with the season's first real clunker.

Why is it? Well, partially it's because of Bill Lawrence and the cast, who have been entertaining to...

Oprah hopes to refocus on healthy living in 2009 Oprah Winfrey’s up and down battle with her weight has been in the news for decades, and earlier this year she seemed to be on the right track again when she took part in a vegan detox diet that also eliminated gluten and alcohol. But now she says s...

Filed under: Scrubs, Interviews, Ask TV Squad, Reality-Free As TV fans, we all dream of being able to communicate with our favorite stars (Taylor Kitsch, why aren't you answering my letters?), but now AOL TV is going to make it happen. In a new video interview series called Outside the Box, stars fr...

I don't think I've reached that point yet, but it certainly does seem like the "Freaks and Geeks" and "Undeclared" veteran unleashed by Judd Apatow is just about everywhere nowadays. A look at the IMDB sheet after "Kung Fu Panda," the surprisingly satisfying summer flick that's currently kicking all...

ABC Has Scrubs' Back As expected, the long-running NBC comedy, jettisoned by that network earlier this year, will be picked up by ABC, with Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke and cast ... It's TRUE! Angelina Jolie is having twins In a "Today Show" interview with Angelina Jolie in Cannes to promote their new f...
