Celebrities in DVD TV Shows

Scrubs is an American comedy-drama television series created in 2001 by Bill Lawrence and starred Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, and Donald Faison. The show revolves around the lives of several employees of Sacred Heart, a teaching hospital.

Scrubs features fast-paced screenplay, slapstick, and surreal vignettes presented mostly as the daydreams of the central character, Dr. John "J.D." Dorian (Braff). Its title is a play on surgical scrubs and a term for a low-ranking or insignificant person (at the beginning of the show, most of the main characters were medical interns, one of the lowest ranks in the medical hierarchy).

The tv series premiered in October 2001 on NBC and ran for seven seasons. During the seventh season, NBC announced that it would not renew the show and ABC picked up the series for a new season. In January 2009, the eight season of Scrubs premiered on ABC and the ninth season in December 2009. However, in May 2010, it was recently announced that the show was officially cancelled.

Zach Braff is not your average American celebrity. Besides being a television and film actor, he is also a director, a screenwriter, and a producer, all in one. His first Hollywood appearance was in Woody Allen's 1993 film Manhattan Murder Mystery.

Braff catapulted to fame via the hit tv show Scrubs, in which he played the lead role of John "J.D." Dorian. He has been nominated for three Golden Globes and an Emmy for his role as the offbeat doctor. In addition to directing several episodes of Scrubs, Braff wrote, directed, and starred in 2004's Garden State, which was filmed in his home state of New Jersey. He was also the producer of the film's soundtrack which earned him a Grammy Award for "Best Compilation Soundtrack For A Motion Picture".

Braff also directed several music videos and has done voice-acting, having voiced the title character for the Disney animated film Chicken Little (2005). His filmography includes Broken Hearts Club (2000), Blue Moon (2000), The Last Kiss (2005), The Ex (2007), and the upcoming films Open Hearts and New York, I Love You, both for release this year.
