I think that it was an OK, episode, not great, bt not as abd as you make it out to be. But I was very confused..about Dr. Kelso, about nurse Shirley, about verything. Plus the paradody part kind-of let me down, I REALLY love princess bride..and this was not it.

I didn't hate it as much as everyone (or most) on here seemed to. I thought it was enjoyable, if not perfect. The continuity was frustrating (blame NBC) but when I re-watch it on DVD down the line, it'll be in the correct order. I thought it lived up to the standard set by "My Yellow Brick Road" and "My Musical" for the most part, though I don't know how much of a parody of TPB it was rather than just taking place in a similar world.

I have not enjoyed this season, but I thought this episode was well done and quite entertaining. I was thrown by the continuity (particularly with Kelso), but that is a minor quibble for an episode that worked on many other levels.

That said, I don't know if I will be following the show to ABC. I think it's time to let it go.

i love it though it was wonderfull ....loved the end with cox and jordan best scrubs couple hands down

What was the last line Dr. Cox said? We rewound and rewound and couldn't understand it.

I couldn't even watch this mess. About midway through I just fast forwarded and hopped to The Office. I guess the humor of this show just wore a bit too thin for me over the years, so that when a particularly weak episode comes along it's best just to skip it. Too bad this particularly weak episode had to be its (NBC) finale.

I was going to have a comment similar to what Pierre-Luc Allie says above, but not even Dr. Elliot in a princess dress was enough to make me sit through this. Making Sarah Chalke look gorgeous in a pink dress is very easy. Putting together a script to make this show funny again apparently isn't.

That was the worst episode of Scrubs I have ever seen. The past two seasons of Scrubs have been huge misteps. Did J.D last week learn the exact same lesson he learn't a few backs, about makingtime for Elliot? And why are all the characters so over the top? J.D may have been playing the village idiot in the homage stuff, but that is pretty much how he plays the character all the time. Everyone on that show are charactatures of what they used to be. Everything about Scrubs these days it OTT. I esspecially can't stand the music cues they use in the show. Whenever there's a joke, WACKY MUSIC. Whenever they cut to the next scene, WACKY MUSIC. I think this all started back when Scrubs did the sictom episode. They may have been making fun of sictcoms in that episode, but ever since then the characters have been acting the exact same way. It's a shame, Scrubs was once my number one show. Now I don't ever care what happens to the people in it. Apart from a few good laughs, it isn't worth watching. I just hope they bring back the quality next season.

Blame NBC for airing the episode out of order... just one more instance where they have shown their disregard for Scrubs.

The episodes that have been completed for season 8 so far are much closer to the first two or three seasons of the show and are some of the best episodes in a long time. Look forward to it.

Honestly I think that they could have re- edited this episode to take out the Kelso part and filled it with something else, because Kelso didn't even have that big of a part in the real world or the fantasy world, and it would have cleared up the continuity issue. Knowing that this episode was just pretty much supposed to be a mid - season throw away episode really made it hard to accept as the season finale. I think the episode before this could have made a more acceptable season finale. It just felt kind of lazy on the shows part. It was kind of like, well we kicked out of NBC lets just show this episode and get the hell out of here.

I am a huge fan of TPB and I didn't realize this episode was supposed to be an homage.
The continuity issues bothered me, but there were some funny moments. I doubt they have another full season worth of funny left in these stories. They need a quality finale and ride off into the sunset.
Favorite moment:
Cox to Eliot: "Princess..."
Cox to JD :"Princess..."
