Scrubs: Season 04
Running Time: 30 min.

Series star Zach Braff begins double duty as actor (in the role of young Dr. J.D. Dorian) and director during the fourth season of the NBC hospital "dramedy" Scrubs. In addition to such familiar series regulars as Donald Faison (Dr. Chris Turk), Sarah Chalke (Dr. Elliott Reid), Judy Reyes (Nurse Carla Espinosa), Ken Jenkins (Dr. Bob Kelso), and John C. McGinley (Dr. Perry Cox), season four marks the first of several appearances by Heather Graham as the maddeningly eccentric Dr. Molly Clock, a pyschologist at Sacred Heart Hospital. Also seen this season is former ER star Julianna Margulies as malpractice attorney Neena Broderick, who launches into an affair with J.D. even as she takes Turk apart in court; and Matthew Perry and Colin Farrell, both cast as seriously weird characters. Noteworthy plot developments include J.D.'s brief romance with a girl named Kylie (Chrystee Pharris), kindled after J.D. treats her then-boyfriend for gonorrhea; the ongoing mental torment visited upon J.D. by the hospital's increasingly bizarre janitor (Neil Flynn); and Turk's discovery that he has Type II diabetes. Arguably the season's most memorable episode is "My Life in Four Cameras," in which J.D. fills a former Cheers writer in on life at Sacred Heart Hospital -- while the action plays out in "traditional" sitcom fashion in front of a live studio audience!
