Christma-Tele-Kwanz-Ukah-Vision Day 10: Scrubs 1x11

Happy Christma-tele-kwanz-ukah-vision everybody!  This is my celebration of the holiday season through television- one holiday-themed episode a day all the way until Christmas (and for the most part the episodes will be Christmas based.  I've yet to see a kwanza television episode, but I'll keep my eyes and ears open).  Enjoy the spirit of the holidays through the medium of television- make yourself a cup of hot coco, snuggle up in a blanket and immerse yourself in the season.

Preach it Turk!

Scrubs “My Own Personal Jesus” 1x11

The interns, residents and nurses at Sacred Heart are having a hard time getting into the holiday spirit.  J.D. keeps accidentally taking down the Janitor’s Christmas decorations, Turk loses his faith when he sees all the people in the hospital on Christmas Eve, Elliot feels she let down a young pregnant girl and desperately tries to find and help her, Dr. Kelso is rude (as always), as of course are Dr. Cox and Jordan.  Everyone is trying to solve their Christmas problems, and by the end everyone finds what they are looking for, joined together under the Star of Bethlehem…or under the town’s Christmas tree.  After all the struggles of the day, J.D. and gang end the celebration on a happy note, with a “God bless us, everyone.”  At which point J.D. is called cheesy and everyone leaves…


Also great in this episode?  Turk's gospel choir moment in one of J.D.'s imagination sequences.
