It's a silly thing to be bugged by I know, but the odds didn't change. How it played out in this instance doesn't effect the odds themselves. I know what is meant by the statement. Like I said, silly for this to bug me.

@@FulcanMal I guess you could argue that the 1/3 is for the average patient, but for these particular patients their individual odds of death were above 1/3, due to their conditions. Like if 1/1000000 people get cancer before age 30, but 1/100 firefighters do, so on average anyone you talk to has a 1 in a million but the odds are higher if you're talking to a firefighter. The 1/3 are the general odds averaged out over all patients, while the average of patients with those particular conditions are higher. but yeah I guess

It's like a Derren Browns play on words... 1 in 3 may die but it doesn't show you the 6 other people on the ward that survived that day who JD Turk and Elliot didn't treat.

@@jayofthep exactly. There is a group of 9. 6 of which we didnt see.

@@FulcanMal It's a clever play on the flawed instinctive human understanding of statistics, though in this case it's arguably a narrative subversion at play too. It is a common trope that if some otherwise mundane seeming fact or object is explicitly called out in the narrative it will be relevant later so we are trained to expect that to be the case which biases the viewer even more towards assuming the three is not an abstract quantifier but refers to the three cases presented in the story.

Not their decision. They license most of their show, they don't own them (with the obvious exception of their own Netflix Originals).

Either way, Scrubs' removal from Netflix borders on being a Greek tragedy.

It was switched over to HULU.

@@12aRosej14 Who tf cares about Hulu?

You don't have to be cruel about it. I was just saying that's what happened...

Thank you! I'll do as many as I can.

That would take a long time, and there are a lot of episodes that I think are great but wouldn't really make sense for this series. My Musical and My Bahamas Vacation come to mind as being mostly just relationship stuff, not hospital stuff. Great episodes, but skippable in this context.

Yes!!!

Can't promise all of them, but certainly will do more of them

You should watch the series btw

At a rate of 1 upload per week, you could finish the series in 3 years. Something to think about Dr. Hope!

And turns out to be Colonel Doctor’s son.

Heather Good I just re-watched the series for the millionth time and I still wasn't ready for Ben. Even in an episode later on when they flashed back, I teared up again. It's one of the best episodes on TV ever.

"Where do you think we are?" Gets me every time. .:'(

I am surprised that, in the show, Dr. Cox and Jordan didn't name their son after Ben.

@@TheNoiseySpectator The character's name was Ben. The actors name is Brendan Fraiser

*Brendan Fraser

Any doc who likes Scrubs can't be all bad.

Mat Deering as a nurse I find it much more important that people can make their own informed decisions than my own ego that has to save everyone at all costs. Treatment isn’t always the best option.

As the former partner of several nurses (I love nurses), I completely believe you :)

I don't know. Something that is inoperable seems like it would be even worse, because then even your best shot is just not enough. To refuse treatment in the face of mortality is more brave than anything else. Unless it's a parent trying faith healing on a kid. They can go to Hell.

Oh fuck yes. And add anti-vaxxers to that list.

@@mathewdeering add pro 5g technology to the list as well. Some many harmful effects to the body

please don't do it right outside the kitchen, it's pretty annoying when you are walking out of there and a wheelchair comes flying by

As someone with a "baby face" without a beard and who usually clean shave like two or three times a year it can sometimes be night and day how people treat you depending on if you have a beard or not.

Haha, I'm a teacher as well. Thinking back to a chemistry teacher I had in high school, in retrospect, he was incredibly young. At that time, he had to have been mid-twenties and naturally looked very young. I also remember wondering if he really knew what he was doing...and again, I was the student! Turns out, he was a good teacher. I understand where you're coming from is my point, haha. Thanks for all you do to educate our youth!

I was excited to hear your way to get past the youth dismissal, then remembered that as a female growing a beard would cause me more problems than it solves :P

Kitty literally putting the patient first, both in action and in their words. It probably keeps things focused on the person.

Scrubs is a great show. It finds its feet in season 2, sags a little in 5 and 6, but rallies for seasons 7 and 8. (We don't talk about season 9, which lost most of the main cast and was produced by other people.) Also amazing is the amount of story and character they could fit into half an hour (with adverts) compared to twice that for most medical dramas.

Thanks for your kind comment! You learn to find a language that works for you. Having said that you can sometimes accidentally say things in a way that people don't like but I've always found that as long as you treat people with respect and kindness people don't mind.

@@ThreadBomb you are right man.. Season 8 is definitely one of my favorites. The episode where Turk and JD keep a patient company and have a beer with him is one of my favorites

As a ICU nurse, i understand what you're saying, but you also have to understand that we need to protect ourselves, and sometimes, it means actively trying to forget that the patient is actually a human being with a story. I provide care to people who are on the verge of dying, most of the time they are sedated and intubated, and i've never even heard their voice, so yes, to my collegues, i'll refer to them as "the pancreatitis patient" or "the attempt suicide patient" to create some distance, because if i think about who they are, their story, their loved ones all day long, i would spend my days crying. But that doesn't mean it has any impact on the level of humanity i bring everytime i step into their room, or every time i speak to their families. So if you ever catch a doctor or a nurse talking in those terms about your loved one hospitalized, i'm sorry but don't get mad at them, they're dealing with the pain that comes with the job the best way they can. Also i'm french, sorry if i made any english mistake :)

Yep. Top rated medical knowledge on this channel

It’s important. Heart, for example, NOT heart shaped!

You ever hear of kidney beans, they're shaped like that

@@Nehelenia3000 you only make that mistake once

Thanks mate!

I'm sure that it does happen/has happened at some point in some hospital somewhere 😂😂

Never happened to me. Might have had something to do with my spinal operation and being bedbound for seven straight days

I assumed this was sarcasm.

What about wheelchair racing?

WitchHatsFTW - yeah this made me giggle! :)

Yeah, there were multiple episodes with her.

I love how well they addressed that.

Really hated how long it took for that intern to be fired. -.-

Katie Archer dont talk about cabbage like that.

@@charlesappalachia8252 poor cabbage, he had such a wonderful chimp impersonation

OsterSocke I wonder if Doctor Mike also got a tweet from Bill

I don't know, but I doubt it. ^^

Bill probably told Dr Mike to knock it off. ;)

What did the tweet say?

She died shortly after this comment.

Awww great! Yeh I appreciate this as I'm always trying to improve things about the channel

Yes! Every chance, was a huge fan of House, so definitely will do some more.

@@DrHopeSickNotes well, it's been three months, but I'll say it again; I urge you to review the episode where House and Cuddy are on an airplane coming from the Far East, (Taiwan, I think) when a man on board gets very sick, loses consciousness, and the other passengers start to get sick, too.

@@TheNoiseySpectator Well he is a doctor so, his schedule is pretty busy. Can't be helped. Honestly though, I prefer to see his review on Cells at work, currently waiting for episode 7+

Also J.D. cheated and still lost. J.D. has placed 8 pieces and Death only 6.

No it's a straight quote from a connect 4 ad.
