Goofs:

Plot holes: When the Janitor shows JD the penny he got stuck in the door, it shows the penny being made in 2006. JD would have gotten the penny stuck in the door in 2001 when the show aired and the penny from 2006 couldn't have existed. (This might be on purpose because the Janitor is known to lie a lot.)

Soundtrack:

Snow ((Hey Oh))

You have to be kidding

JD is leaving Sacred Heart, and this first of two parts to wrap up the series chronicles all the goodbyes and the memories. It is so bad as to be virtually unwatchable, and whatever sparked SCRUBS to greatness is clearly now in the distant past. It is simply maudlin, poorly plotted and paced, and I doubt anyone's heart was in it. Best to stick with the first four or possibly even five seasons. By the sixth season, the show was a goner, much like ER and several other shows that outlasted their welcome. Clearly, the writers were out of ideas. And if you think part one is bad -- well, don't even think about watching part two. It gets worse, if such a thing is possible.
