Scrubs - J.D.'s Evaluation

JD gets evaluated

[gamegeeks]

Moments like this show he really does care about JD. He wouldn't get so worked up if he didn't.

[Gryffilion]

JD kept wanting his version of a mentor, but often failed to see that Dr. Cox was a great mentor because he never let JD rest on his laurels. He was always pushing him. That's what a mentor does.

[sunnythekitkat]

This rant not only has great advice in it, but it's so damn honest. Usually Cox is sarcastic and mean but here you could feel his genuine frustration. He sees J.D.s potential. But he doesn't see someone confident enough to utilize it. Not to mention it has to get annoying having someone constantly vying for your approval. He wants J.D. to be confident, and this was the only way to get this through to him. The end there was pretty mean, but it seemed genuine. This is why he's a great mentor, even if his methods could be better.

I love this, because no matter how much older I get I'll still have THE SAME self-confidence doubts.

[joelouise]

I loved the reaction from cox “Oh danger ohhh” that killed me😹

[omairsh]

Dr Cox is simply the best. Such a command over every line delivered

[robertparker]

I just started watching Scrubs for the first time. To me this is the best monologue from Dr. Cox.

Also this scene shows why Dr. Cox is my favorite character.

[DanielJohnsen]

Of all the life lessons in this show to me this is one of the most important. To learn

[Bondmanproductions]

“You honest to god get me so angry” wow I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard that in my life.

[heathsartorius]

I'm always surprised how often this scene gets me emotional

[F.S]

Dr.Cox is the reason JD is a doctor at the end of the show. Tough love and unwavering support when the $hit hits the fan!

[BSmooth]

Life was SO much simpler when this aired

[richardharris]

I still think this was the best speech dr cox ever did for jd

[robbiebennett]

I think the reasoning for JD doing his own evaluation makes sense.

However getting angry at JD is unfair, Dr Cox gives the impression to JD he doesn't care enough to do it, how was JD supposed to know this was a teaching moment?

[PeterDivine]

"You get off like, six-ish, or....?"

[jaxl]

Best Characters ever I was 5 hearing this or 7 but it holds

[pdgmet]

One of the best shows ever and without a doubt of the early 2000's

[francisking]

Exactly. Moments like this prove Cox really cared about DJ & knew he would be a GREAT doctor !!

[kylejones]

Dr Cox was the best on the show in my opinion incredible actor

[ChanjuFritch]

3rd year neurosurgery resident - 2 years ahead of where JD is in this episode, but in a different specialty.

I come back to this clip at least once a year.
