![Scrubs - Season 7 [DVD]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71GcGeUODwL.jpg)
Product Description All eleven episodes from the seventh season of the popular US comedy series. The show focuses on the bizarre experiences of fresh-faced medical intern John 'J.D.' Dorian (Zach Braff) as he embarks on his healing career in a surreal hospital crammed full of unpredictable staffers and patients. Episodes comprise: 'My Own Worst Enemy', 'My Hard Labor', 'My Inconvenient Truth', 'My Identity Crisis', 'My Growing Pains', 'My Number One Doctor', 'My Bad Too', 'My Manhood', 'My Dumb Luck', 'My Waste of Time' and 'My Princess'. From .co.uk Scrubs staged a near-miraculous recovery in its seventh season; this despite the usual indifferent treatment by the network, low ratings, and a writer's strike that only allowed for 11 episodes. In this case, less was more. Scrubs regained its footing with sharper writing (Dr. Cox's signature rants are more inspired than tiresome this season, although at one point, nemesis Dr. Kelso threatens to hire an orchestra to "play him off"), more empathetic situations, and meta-fun with such "third-tier" characters as Snoop Dogg Attending (formerly Snoop Dog Intern), Dr. Beardface (pronounced "Beard-fassay"), and new squeaky-voiced intern, Josephine (Scrubs scribe Aseem Batra). Beginning with J.D. (Zach Braff) and Elliott (Sarah Chalke) coming to their senses before they can consummate that sixth season cliffhanging kiss, this season will be one of "weird crystallizing moments." Elliott will call off her upcoming nuptials to Keith. J.D. will be forced to tell Kim ("cute as a button" Elizabeth Banks), whom he impregnated after only their first date, that he does not love her. The "annoying whiny man-child," as Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley) calls him, will finally ponder whether it is time for him to grow up. Dr. Cox will admit that he is lonely without his acerbic wife (Christa Miller) and son when they go out of town. Other developments include the smitten Janitor's (Neil Flynn) initially suspect new girlfriend (can she really be named "Lady?") and on a Scrubsian sad note, Kelso (Ken Jenkins) faces forced retirement when it is revealed he is actually 65 years old. Scrubs deftly blends absurdist fantasy, flat-out silliness and dramatic, emotional moments, as in "My Number One Doctor," in which Elliott must deal with a terminal patient's suicide attempt. The season's most ambitious episode is the finale, "My Princess," a Princess Bride homage in which Dr. Cox transforms one undiagnosable patient's case into his son's bedtime story that is populated by Scrubs characters, with Elliott as a princess, Turk (Donald Faison) and Carla (Judy Reyes) as a two-headed witch, and J.D. as, you guessed it, the village idiot. The ample bonus features include audio commentary for every episode, a fun "Alternate Lines" segment that illustrates the improvisational leeway cast members enjoy, deleted scenes, bloopers, an interview with Ken Jenkins, and a behind the scenes look at the "My Princess" episode. Poised for cancellation, Scrubs got a second opinion from ABC, which picked up the series for an eighth season. That's heartening news for devoted fans who would never pull the plug. To borrow Turk's well-worn catchphrase, "That’s what I'm talkin' about." --Donald LiebensonSpecial Features My Making Of II: "My Princess" One-On-One With Ken Jenkins (Dr. Robert "Bob" Kelso) Alternate Lines Deleted Scenes Bloopers Audio Commentaries P.when('A').execute(function(A) { A.on('a:expander:toggle_description:toggle:collapse', function(data) { window.scroll(0, data.expander.$expander[0].offsetTop-100); }); }); Synopsis With its deft combination of humour and heart, this single-camera sitcom is a both a critical and cult favourite. Scrubs stars Zach Braff as J.D., an eager doctor at Sacred Heart Hospital. With J.D. as its narrator, the show frequently dips into surrealism as it shows his strange thoughts and daydreams. The rest of the characters on SCRUBS are equally eccentric: best friend Turk (Donald Faison), bossy nurse Carla (Judy Reyes), J.D.'s reluctant mentor Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley), the anxiety-ridden ex-girlfriend Elliot (Sarah Chalke), and J.D.'s arch nemesis, known simply as 'Janitor' (Neil Flynn). Get ready for an extra dose of laughs, and enjoy every surreal moment as Scrubs hits new heights in its sensational seventh season. Elliot, Turk and Carla may be growing older but they aren’t necessarily growing up, even as career changes, family issues and love invade the quirky world of Sacred Heart. Complete with exclusive bonus features – including a behind-the-scenes look at the "fairytale" episode directed by Zach Braff, bloopers and alternate lines, this is off-the-charts entertainment you’ll want to watch over and over again.

Too short to get going, but still Quality TV
Just watched the whole season. It's still good, but they are all getting older & the most annoying thing now to me is 'The Todd' with the same boring boring boring gags over & over. Ted & The Janitor are always good. The Aloma Wright character Nurse Roberts reapperaring as another Nurse is a bit confusing especially as the first character died!By the way, the *REAL* order to watch Disc Two in is this: 7, 11, 8, 9, 10 with the Bob Kelso leaving storyline in the right order. Having the Fantasy ep as the last one has Kelso back in charge making other writers confused with it.Will buy Season 8, but Season 9 sounds like Jumping The Shark to me, they left it 8 seasons now big changes. sounds like 'Becker' after Terry Farrell & the Bob guy left, it can only be a pale imitation of it's previous greatness.

Great series, but Season 7 isn't value for money compared to the previous ones
First things first, I absolutely love Scrubs and have the DVDs for the first six seasons. And just as things were to get even better in Season 7 (originally intended to be the last ever), unfortunately, the Writers' Strike in 2007 put paid to that. As a result, a full series of 22 or so episodes wasn't created, and only eleven episodes were eventually made.Therefore, it feels that season 7 never gets going into a storyline that arcs across the episodes, and the writing feels very piecemeal. Nonetheless, if you are a Scrubs fan, you'll no doubt not mind that and love it still.The problem, though, is that at the time of writing, this DVD box set costs more than any of the previous series currently on sale. Given Season 7 has fewer than half the usual number of episodes in a season, doesn't seem great value for money. In the US, Season 8 is due to start soon, and I'd wager a bet that these two seasons will eventually be bundled. Therefore, I'll be waiting a while before ordering my copy.But if you're a Scrubs fan who can't bear to have a hole in your collection, I'm sure you'll be happy with your purchase!

Scrubs season 7
Despite being in its seventh season the series shows no sign of tiredness. How they have managed to keep the superb cast together all this time is probably a mystery, although if you were in something this good would you want to leave?One episode in particular is just brilliant. I won't spoil it by giving any details, other than it's the one where a woman falls over in the park right at the start. This episode alone puts the series head and shoulders above ANYTHING else on TV, showing great imagination and execution.This show just keeps on getting better.

Scrubs Season 7
I love scrubs's off beat humour and have come to expect the somewhat cruel edge to the laughs - JD and the Janitor/JD and Dr. Cox / Ted and Dr. Kelso to cite but a few. This series did not disappoint and still seemed fresh despite it being in its seventh season. However, because of the writers strike and the shortness of the series it did feel a bit 'unfinished' and towards the end seemed to be a bit 'out of sequence'. This slight problem did not spoil my enjoyment, but I felt a bit like the party ended too soon! Scrubs: Complete Season 7 [DVD] [2007 ]

Still Great after all this time
I joined in on the scrubs train at season 7, I knew nothing of the characters backstorys and not even exactly what was going on. I did know two things though, The show was hillarous and original. I watched every week until the last episode in the season when I decided that I wouldn't watch it until I had saw all the previous episodes.Recently I went to my local blockbuster and rented all the previous seasons (1-6) and when I watched season 7 again all the way though I found it even funnier and picked up on my jokes I didn't get the first time around. I reccomend the scurbs series to anyone and season 7 still has a special place in my heart. It may be shorter than all the other seasons but the amazing writing and acting makes up for it. Buy it.
