Anything you feel you want to include
I enjoy Scrubs. It's a show that doesn't really ever jump the shark, because there's always a variable amount of time between episodes and thanks to the daydreams, it almost has a quasi-prejumped feel. Even the standard jump triggers (which would be main characters sleeping together where thier relationship on screen is based purely on sexual tension, episodes of marriage and baby births, actor death, and haircut changes) don't seem to actually ever push Scrubs into selling out terratory, thanks to the fact they're all lead up to pretty reasonably.
Anyway. Favourite episodes. "My Screw Up" is a perfectly crafted episode and handles the entire subject amazingly well. "My Way Home" is visually excellent and has a great deal of jokes you can pick up if you've seen the Wizard of Oz before. "My Lunch" and "My Fallen Idol" though provide the greatest amount of character development between them, possibly iconic of why Scrubs is such a great show.
Yeah. I know. Two shows where reoccuring characters kick the can are in my favourites. I like my comedy serious. All the characters are well written (even when they're just used as stock jokes / stereotypes for a punchline and don't get another mention in the episode), but I prefer my complex characters, and so it's a reassuring tie between Cox and J.D.
