Great reaction as always. Regarding Dr. Cox and Carla: in the first season Cox had a crush on Carla and in one of the episodes it's revealed they had gone out on a date years before JD and Turk got there, but Carla didn't feel anything so it didn't go anywhere. After season 1 it's not really brought up much after that. 🔴🔴🔴

Interesting production note. When they were shooting the "lonely" version of the hospital, they didn't have to do anything to the existing sets. Because they were working out of an abandoned hospital anyway, they just went to another floor they hadn't been using and shot a few scenes in among the rubbish. Also, a little side note about Donald Faison's dancing skills. In another episode he improvised a dance to Ted's air band, and people liked it so much the developers of Fortnite bought the rights to it to use as their default dance.

What I love is that in hindsight, all the treatment Nick prescribes is largely aimed at covering up the child's symptoms rather than fixing the problem. Steroids for a rash... anti-emetics for vomiting... antibiotics for a fever. The reason he got sick in the first place is never mentioned. Fits totally with the theme that sometimes people have deeper issues than what appears on the surface.

This is exactly why Scrubs was the best sitcom ever made, in my opinion. It's not just cheap laughs. They make you cry. And the lows make the highs all the more powerful.

I lost my baby sister just before she turned 5 months old, two weeks before my dad's birthday. The story is so unbelievable.... On the positive side, my baby girl was born a few months ago, 2 days before my sister's birthday. The picture of my father holding her is so beautiful! You can see his smile through his facemask!

I always liked the scene with Elliot crying in private before going back to work. I have always found crying to be a very important step in dealing with any tough situation. It feels really messy and painful while you’re doing it, but the clarity that comes afterwards is amazing.

Hi, I'm from Ukraine and Scrubs is my favorite thing to watch before going to bed! I want to say thank to you, because even after years watching it, with your videos I can learn something new about it!

Carla's and Perry's relationship isn't a mentor-type. They're more equal than that and Cox truly respects her. She keeps him in check a lot throughout the series. They bust each other's balls, but there's a lot of love there. I think it's a pretty prime example of a plutonic male/female friendship.

love all the relationship advice sprinkled in ha

This is such a great episode. I love seeing the reaction of a “perfect” doctor having to come to terms with the realization that sometimes things just go bad and it really breaking his world.

So glad you're doing more episodes! Everyone reacts to the same 3 episodes, so it's refreshing to hear a doctor's perspective on these other ones. Thank you! 🔴🔴🔴

Yesss thank you for more Scrubs! Eagerly awaiting a future reaction to Season 5 Episode 4, "My Jiggly Ball". It develops one of the main characters that you haven't seen that much depth from yet :) edit after finishing: 🔴🔴🔴

I had emergency abdominal surgery last year and watching this I thought "Hope they didn't knick the colon." But then I remembered it was a strangulated hernia and they had to remove and resection a part of the colon that had started to go necrotic... so actually I'm glad they did cut the colon. Must have smelled terrible though.

Regarding the question about dog shows - Yes, they check that male dogs have 2 descended testicles. I have known a lot of breeder-exhibitors, and one told me of a show-quality German Shepherd Dog who was monorchid. The owner actually convinced a plastic surgeon to insert a prosthetic testicle into the dog's scrotum so it could be shown. Unfortunately, 6 weeks later the 2nd testicle descended, and the dog was once more not allowed in the show ring. Dog show people have the BEST stories.

I listened a lot to Zack snd Donald's podcast, Fake Doctors, Real Friends visiting the hospital last year, made it realler but also more comforting.

I think Cox and Carla relationship was built of respect from the start. He enjoyed her company because she was a tough strong person and didn't fear him like everyone else. He respected That and it grew into a crush. I dint think it was ever a father daughter type thing.

Not a doctor, but absolutely love Scrubs. Actually, Scrubs is the only DVD set I have ever purchased. Watching your reactions makes me feel you are really enjoying Scrubs and enjoy doing these reactions. True??????

I doubt you'll read this. But the emotions you show and clearly feel are powerful to me. I hope you never lose that as a doctor. And to a lesser extent as a youtuber. It shows how much you care. And I think caring as a doctor is important. I had an appendectomy a few years back, and I met with the OR Staff before I was taken in. And right before, I was one on one with just the main surgeon and he asked me I had any other questions. I said no, but asked that he do a good job, I was afraid. I knew then and know now, how relatively easy and safe my surgery was, but that didn't change my fear of my first ever surgery. He was very sympathetic. He looked at me, not offended at all, and said he would do his very best for me. I still remember that caring and emotion to this day, 5 or whatever years later, and I suspect I'll always remember that care. To sum up, as a patient, the caring my doctors showed me made a big deal to me. And I hope you keep that caring forever. Truly I do. We live in different countries and will never meet. But I want to say thank you. Not for youtube (tho thanks for the cool and interesting content) but for being a doctor at all, and one who cares. You will add much happiness and healthy-ness to this world. And that is deeply admirable.

🔴🔴🔴 thanks doc! While this is far from my favorite scrubs episode this may be my favorite reactions you’ve done so far!! Your discussion at the end commenting on how you can get rattled when you see your supervisors vulnerable was really powerful. Plus, I’m just learning about how histamines help catalyze inflammation by creating intercellular pathways so I was wicked excited to here you talk about histamines and mast cells!! Great reaction!! If I could recommend more scrubs, specifically My Last Words from Season 8… very good. Or code black (California’s version of code brown) about a very famous ED bay in a historic county hospital in Los Angeles. Excellent show!! Keep up the good work!! I really love this channel!

You should really react to a two parter from season 6 "My No Good Reason" and "My Long Goodbye". It is incredibly cleverly written and really poignant.

I see a video of yours reacting to Scrubs. Can't click fast enough!! Awesome. Edit - 🔴🔴🔴 - Better than Blue balls I guess. Although Turk took care of that this episode. hahaha

I was a kid i was in hospital for a long time and got to know my surgeon pretty well. One night he showed up to my room unexpectedly. he said he was passing and just thought he'd check in, which wasn't unusual, he was there most hours, he wouldnt even holiday far away from the hospital. anyway my mum saw somethign was up and when she asked if there was any other reason and he told us that he'd lost a baby in theatre. she hugged him and told him how good i was doing and the other kids on the ward were going, which i think was what he was looking for. he obviously knew we were doing well, he was the reason we were, but it helped.

This is the kind of content which is a treat because it’s not readily available and you have to wait a while for more.

Thank you. Please do more of Scrubs. And it's wonderful how you share your real life experiences when sth serious happens in Scrubs. All the respect for doctors and the "ghosts" you carry with you and still keep going.

Thank you so much for these reactions. It's always great to hear your input about the situations that happen in the series. 🔴🔴🔴

Appreciate your insight man, would love more of these!

It's really interesting hearing your insights! Keep up the good work mate! 🔴

I think what Dr. Cox meant by lowers heart rate is after a little bit has passed. Cause yes it raises your heart rate in the moment but after your endorphins have been released you tend to level out. Which I believe a lot of people fall asleep or get tired after sex/masturbating.

I really like how you share how things resonate and share your experience. Also it's been awesome to see more scrubs episodes as part of your reactions. Hope they keep coming :D 🔴

Was working when I got the notification for this vid. Couldn't wait to watch. You have an endearing quality about you and so soothing to watch as I end my day. Thank you.

I like how you glossed over the "who he thought was the devil" part of your code black...

the interesting part of this (heard from the podcast fake doctors real friends) when they were filming this it was on the date of 9/11/2001 in USA when we were attacked. So they were very shaken up when filming this episode

I enjoy listening to you talk about death. The moment lives with you, was a good line too! Thanks

"You definitely need gloves" that's where I completely lost it xDD

Just realized I hadn’t subbed yet. But I was WAY too excited for a new scrubs reaction. You and Dr Crystal are my favorite content creators.

Oh man, I've been hoping for this one for a while. Its an early example of what makes Scrubs great. Its a hilarious show, but the comedy is not guaranteed. Because life has its highs, its lows, its heroes, and its fools. This show is funny and inspirational, yet tragic and heartfelt. And it really makes you appreciate the good times. Great reaction!

🔴 I just recently found your videos and I'm having a great time watching through them. Thank you for your content!

I want to thank u for everything u do both as a doctor and as a KZfaqr

🔴 Always love watching these Scrubs reactions, great to hear your own perspective on things as well. I know you probably already have a very long list of Scrubs episode recommendations, and this might already be one of them, but I feel like I have to recommend S8E2, 'My Last Words'. One of the best episodes of the entire show in my opinion, it has that perfect Scrubs combination of great jokes and moving moments. Lots of stuff about coping with death, which hits me really hard every time. Either way I'll be here for the next Scrubs reaction whichever episode you choose :) 🔴

🔴🔴🔴🔴 As someone who lost a 3 month old daughter to an illness which required surgery, I do think about you guys the doctors who perform these surgeries, CPR, etc. day in and day out. For us as parents to lose a child is awful and so while our experiences will differ, I sympathise with you doctors who lose patients who are so young. - And that cheese comment, well, that's my wife through and through. :)

Yeah, I believe they typically do that in dog shows. They want to make sure the winner is able to make more breeds of their kind too, of course win the competitions in future events.

🔴🔴 loved it again. Really enjoying your scrubs series! 😁

"No the driver in this analogy would be the one dying." Ah yes. I completely understand now.

🔴 That’s a good episode. Important for showing how mental health affects even the most seemingly put together person

Love your channel. Great videos and really informative. 🔴🔴🔴

🔴 I'm so glad you did this episode! One that is worth a review would be My Old Lady from Season 1. 🔴🔴🔴

"I don't even know what he's eating" Literally seconds earlier: "Yet you're still eating chilli"

Brilliant reaction as always. All the best from the South Coast of England.

Cox had a crush on Carla at the end of first season as she was the only one he could open up to. Then it went away in the second season as Cox's ex-wife came back. :)

He literally said "and yet, you keep eating chili".. And you say you don't know what he's eating... I would love for my doctor to keep more attention🤣

🔴 Nice work Dr. Syl! I love the Scrubs episodes with Brendon Fraser, but I'd be happy to watch whatever you feel like reviewing on Scrubs

Loved this episode! Great watching your reactions to Scrubs. 🔴🔴🔴

🏏 great stuff, as always. Thanks for the fun reaction, Dr. Syl!

🔴🔴🔴 loving the scrubs videos, keep em coming!

Big fan of this episode, I'd only known the guest star from repeats of Will and Grace growing up so it was cool seeing him do a more dramatic role, at least towards the end. Season one Cox was a low-key love rival for Carla's affection, I'm glad they mostly moved away from it in later seasons as Turk and Carla are wonderful together Really nice commentary and enjoyed you prescribing along Dr Murdoch 🔴🔴🔴

"You need gloves... you need gloves...." Today in Dr Syl fact checks the realism of a scene that is clearly more of a dream sequence of doctors carrying torches and throwing urine samples across the hospital

"i dont get the situation with this kid, first he had a drug rash and now he has sepsis" me: prolly cuz no one wearing gloves in this hospital...

Yay! Something for me to watch.

In regards to catheters, it is just a joy to have one. Got one when I was in for a spondylodese operation ( hope it is speelled correctly for you, fixation of the spine ( interlaminaris TH9-L5 ad modum Legacy according to my journal ) ) a small 8 hrs surgeory, and just the feeling of just being able to let it go the first 2 days after, then they removed it, and tried to get me up and walking, with more or less success, was great. Those things are a joy to have, and a interesting experience getting removed 👌 🔴🔴🔴

Loved the commentary. And yes, Cox has a crush on Carla. It will come up in future episodes.

Dr. Syl: You need gloves Dr. Mike: Chest compressions, chest compressions, chest compressions

🔴🔴 Love your videos mate!

Lmao, the irony of a janitor calling a doctor stupid.

🔴🔴Your Scrubs reactions are always a highlight of my day. Thanks! 🔴🔴

Cheese is Not the best part of a meal if one is lactose intolerant and just got kicked out of an operating room for flatulence.

🎈🎈Another great reaction Dr Syl. 😎🎈🎈

Very interesting episode. Thanks for the reaction 🔴🔴🔴 Waiting for the house episode 😊

Great Episode! Do another House episode please!

Dr Syl: Gets a new transition animation As a result: Uses it at every possible opportunity 😂💖 might as well get some use!

Hee man. I think you should watch My Full Moon, it's an episode that's kind of an episode on Elliot and Turks possible future as doctors and if they would stay doctors forever. it really shows you to a degree what all those yeats of experiences those 2 have formed but may lead to different outcome. I think it's a question everyone in every field could ask themselves having worked in that field for so long

Thank you

"sorry just taking a pause cause there was alot that just came up in that clip.." yup, scrubs in its prime was just so damn good.

26:00 Fun fact: most of the music uses different songs because of copyright nonsense, e.g. Michael J Fox leaves Sacred Heart episode -> Elliot follows toilet paper trail- music in originally aired episode was "A Murder of One" by Counting Crows.

I’m an RN in the states on a Covid unit and I’m struggling to stay positive…really felt the doctors emotions. Thanks for posting and sharing your thoughts

Erythema migrans is the rash seen in Lyme disease. I actually had erythema multiform and it had to be diagnosed by an oral medicine doctor.

🔴🔴🔴I've got to get into the Discord server one of these days. Loving these Scrubs reacts. Your stories are interested and I like learning a bit more about the medicine behind what's going on.

The psych check on entering med school is why i didn't become a physician's assistant. I handle death well, but not with kids or dementia patients.They didn't catch it, but i did from the qiestions.

Scrubs? I'm here for it 😁

Zofran is the trade name used in Australia too.

🔴 “You’re stupid” is such a good insult to any classically smart person, because the very nature of their role “proves” it to them regularly. I imagine a doctor’s ego is under constant fire. (Also I think a clip from this leaked into the thumbnail of the previous reaction :^P)

There is a great episode (my favorite) called My Last Words, it's the second epísode of season 8. It's one of the most famous episodes but also don't need any context whatsoever, so I think it could be a nice episode to react to.

Erythema migrans usually is a dead ringer for Lyme disease, transmitted by ticks. It is also referred to as bullseye rash because of the looks when it spreads away from the puncture. Happened to 30 years ago. It turned into a nice little neuro borelliosis after a few weeks including the obligatory facialis paresis. Lyme was considered extinct in the region i lived so naturally doctors assumed little 14yo. me was just making things up. It took a young newly made resident to remember the textbook passages. When lab results came back at midnight i was hooked up to an ungodly amount of bottles and bags left and right :D What i want to say is: you are not alone in that, but i would really like to see more awareness. Even if it is just "That rash looks odd, i better look it up right away". Could have saved me a lot of pain back then.

Hospitals need to start carrying tranquilizer guns for a code black...

*pretend there's a red ball/dot here* :) great video, per usual!

Look at that, I knew something an actual doctor didn't :O (but like you say, no one knows everything). I work as a administrative medical assistant at the department of pathology and one of my main tasks is to write the notes for the patients medical journals that the doctors record. And I write a lot of skin diagnostics so erythema migrans is something I have written about many times.

🔴 Hey, I was wondering if you'd react to the Golden Girls 2 parter episodes about Dorothy being sick and maybe talk about the hoops someone in her condition goes through in diagnosis these days.

Please just do the whole series from the start. It brings you great views

☄️🍎🍅. The closest thing to red balls I could find haha. Thanks for the laughs. And insights

We don't use the kidney dishes for handover and a code black for us is a bomb threat.

4:30 Better analogy would have been it’s like an orchestra, and the most senior doctor is the conductor 🎻

Regarding thinking of the bowel as the outside; my anatomy teacher told us to think of humans as doughnuts (with the hole through the middle) lol decent analogy I think

The fact it happened, you did, and can still practice, is telling, you should be in medicine.

Your reactions are insightful and also so cute. 🔴🔴🔴🎈🛑🍅🍒❣

100% react to 'My Musical' Season 6 episode 6. A woman gets a brain issue and the while episode is about how she sees everyone singing and dancing, and you get to see all the characters actually singing in a musical. It's one of my favourite episodes.

Yes, in the early seasons, Cox had a crush on Carla. It was one of the weirder subplots, but they never really spent much time on it so it's easily forgettable.

There's nothing more humbling than watching a God be utterly, devastatingly human.

interesting, for us in the US (or at least in california where I practice) code grey is a violent patient, code silver is armed patient, and code black is a bomb threat ahah so when you said you were in a code black, i was like whaaa

good video 😊

Hey look it's that guy from Will and Grace that isn't Will.

Merch Idea. Shirts that say "Everyone needs gloves"
