I know that a few of you watch Scrubs so maybe you can help clear this up.
At the moment on the comedy channel they are showing series 7 , in last weeks episode Dr Kelso quit , yet in the following episode aired on Tuesday night he is back in his role as Chief Medical Officer.
Can someone with far more knowledge than me clear this one up.
Cheers :D

it was because of the writers strike i think.that season only has 11 episodes whereas they usually have 22 i think.so they ended up not showing them episodes in the right order on telly.il check the dvd now and see if they fixed it :o

edit- from amazon-
OK, let me 1st answer the question that's in everybody's mind: No, this is NOT the last series of 'Scrubs'. In actual fact, season 8 is supposed to the last of "modern" 'Scrubs'. The reason I say "modern" is that the cast & crew (i.e. Bill Lawrence, Zach Braff & Judy Reyes) will leave the show after S8, however the show probably continue without them (kinda turning it into 'E.R', revolving a different character each season).

S7 may be the shortest season on history (I assume) with 11 eps. the reason behind this is because of the Writer's Strike of 2007, which subsequently ended (what supposed to be the last EVER series of the show - now its extended to S8) the season.

Here are the list of all 11 eps.

1) My Own Worst Enemy
2) My Hard Labor
3) My Inconvenient Truth
4) My Identity Crisis
5) My Growing Pains
6) My #1 Doctor
7) My Bad Too
8) My Manhood
9) My Dumb Luck
10) My Waste of Time
11) My Princess

The only thing that I can complain about is that they didn't fix the order of the eps., cuz "My Princess" isn't supposed to be the last eps. of S7, it's supposed to go BEFORE "My Dumb Luck" (eps. 9). You see why it's irritating once you watch the last 3 eps., it just creates a continuity.

Now the reason they put it in that order is becuase that's how they aired it, & NBC thought "My Princess" would be a better season finale.

The quality of the show is still great, obviously the lack of eps. caused a slight lower grade (in my book) compared the previous seasons.
