Was he a good chief of medicine? He seemed like a dick but I think he just wanted to run a good hospital, he even forced one of his friends to retIre when his friend refused to update his procedures

Yeah he was. Childhood is idolizing Cox, adulthood is realizing Kelso was right all along.

Childhood is idolizing JD, young adulthood is idolizing Cox, manhood is idolizing Kelso, elder ascension into the seraphic white plane is idolizing Janitor

I've been watching this show again, and it astounds me how much of a shithead JD is; I can think of no redeeming quality he possesses.

He was a classic "rough guy with heart of gold" trope. He often made tough decisions that everyone gave him shit for but ultimately bettered the hospital

Like that one episode where a few patients need some critical care and he decided to let one guy live, becuase he was a donor to the hopsital and by keeping him alive they would have money to build the baby ICU wing at the hopsital

Pretty much he's good for a laugh I guess but the other characters were more interesting/less annoying seems he noticed and probably why they toned it down for the last seasons

he made the real hard decisions. in the end, he saves the most lives but has to bear the responsibility for not saving some too

>that episode where he pretends not to give a shit about anything but find out he cares and plays the role of the bad guy because somebody has to
Fuck Cox

Kelso was a good guy at heart. He just had a hospital to run.

Cox was always on his ass about caring only about patients with money and great insurance, but the money those patients brought the hospital allowed Kelso to pretend to ignore that they were helping treat uninsured patients on the down low.

If Cox or one of the other doctors was in charge of the Hospital, it'd go bankrupt.

He was the tragic hero. He had to do what he thought was best even when no one else could see it

>Not understanding the end of Scrubs when Cox slowly understands Kelso and becomes an angrier version of him

Kelso outright states that Cox was necessary to keep him informed of what was truly important for the hospital, and to ride his ass to make sure he did it where possible.
Maddox is what you get when there's no Cox filter.

Cox was a whiny overly-emotional bitch who thought he was the stone cold voice of reason when it was always Kelso.

While it was one of the greatest episodes, Cox breaking down and quitting the job after those three patients died from rabies shows what a melodramatic retard he is. He could never truly handle making hard decisions like Kelso. He just acted like a snarky asshole as though that was a substitute for actually making tough decisions. Even JD was less of a bitch than Cox when it comes to doing the hard stuff.

He was a good punching bag for Cox

He became a dick so everyone else wouldn't

I didn't watch the last few seasons because the show had gone to shit.

It should have ended in season 7. That was the first season where the show really started getting pretty bad, but it would have been a decent enough ending.

The first 6 seasons were all varying levels of good to great.

He had really good memory and a very good grasp of medicine.

As a human being though, he was absolute trash, the epitome of the effeminate, kvetching underhanded kike.

Zach Braff flanderized JD to the point that he just started playing himself.

One of the things that made Scrubs charming and genuine is that the creator gave the actors a lot of creative freedom with their characters, but Zach being the egotistical annoying attention whore he is just straight up completely inserted himself in to JD.

He was the most annoying part of the show.

Zach really is full of himself

Yeah I'm sure he's really coasting off that Garden State money.

He helped the people around him (with whom he was never romantically entangled) become better people.

Turk was actually the most sensible character in the show.

>Strong adherence to protocol
>Disconnected himself from emotion on the job
>Tapped Latina ass
>God-fearing Christian and family man
>Uncomfortable with homosexuals
>Alpha enough to stand up to anyone at the Hospital

>>Alpha enough to stand up to anyone at the Hospital
Except Hooch

Hooch is crazy.

I thought they addressed this towards the end.

Kelso was just a product of his job. He was in a position where it wasnt, couldnt, just be about the medicine anymore. He had to be about the business of the hospital as well.

And this is where Cox failed, and he grew to understand that while he was a good doctor, he wasnt a and couldnt be a good administrator.

>>Uncomfortable with homosexuals
It was JD. Turk is tolerant on the other hand.

In "My Journey," Turk didn't want to go on a man-date with JD because it felt too gay. He even says "So I'm a little homophobic."

Hooch IS crazy

It's Todd time

JD used his body to get chocolate cake from an effeminate male. No way was he homophobic.
