Stop! Don't touch the remote! Keep that finger away from the Power button! In other words, don't turn off your TV during TV Turnoff Week. If you do, you'll be missing one of the funniest comedies on television today.

I am talking about NBC's Scrubs. There hasn't been a comedy since Friends, not even Everyone Everybody Loves Raymond, that makes me laugh out loud like Scrubs does. I mean, how can you not chuckle while Chris Turk (Donald Faison) dances and lip-synchs to Bel Biv Devoe's Poison. Or snicker when Dr. Cox (John McGinley) goes on one of his 30-second rant on, for instance, why the purple Wiggle is always sleeping (for the uninitiated, the purple Wiggle is Jeff Fatt of the very popular children's television show The Wiggles). Or guffaw when J.D. (Zach Braff) has one of his surreal daydreams in the middle of a conversation.

Another week, another round of American Idol. Right now we have eight guys and eight girls, and in a little over 24 hours, we'll be down to our final twelve contestants, and off to the big stage. Tonight the guys have a chance to upstage the girls, which, hasn't been too hard up until this point. Last week there were only a few standouts. Will the guys get their act together and finally start to take some risks? Join me tonight, right back here to this very post, at 8pm EST and that's when we'll unveil the secret location for the room. I'll be in there under the ID of TVSRyan. Can't wait, I'll see you there!

Update:
Come one, come all;  here is the super secret location for our American Idol Chat! Look for me (TVSRyan) in the chat room. See you inside.
