Michael Learned in Scrubs

[AR15]

Has anybody here seen the few episodes of Scrubs which feature Michael Learned playing a woman named Mrs. Wilkes? She has quite a sad storyline really, she comes into the hospital with a potentially fatal illness, but luckily they're able to cure her, but then she catches an unrelated infection afterward and dies from that. I quite enjoyed seeing her in it ;D and I don't believe I have ever seen this discussed on here before.

I didn't know she was in this program till just before or after the Reunion last year I can't remember which, Normally I never watch this show, I think personally, it's not all that good but knowing Michael was in it I found the ones she was in on Youtube and just watched them.

Yes the storyline is sad and I'll admit I did cry when I watched them. Though she does do something in it, can't remember now what it was but that actually made me laugh a few times after watching them.

I may have to go and see if I can find them again, wouldn't mind seeing the funny clip again, ha ha!

I must admit, I never used to have a very high oppinion of Scrubs, I thought it looked really silly. But my brother just kept telling me it was amazing, so in the end I gave in and now I'm watching it through with him.
I'm not sure about the funny scene that you mean, but when it shows the infection spreading around the hospital, and then going to her just as she's recovered from her other illness, that was very sad (sadder than the scne where she actually dies, I thought).

I have watched them at first i didn't realise it was her. (Whoops) Then i realised it was her. I loved her in it she was in some funny scenes such as the one where Turk is dancing and she says "its pop and lock" or something like that. I really enjoyed seeing her in it though it was another world from Olivia Walton.

That rings a bell, I tried to look for it but couldn't. I am relating it to a phone or ipod or something to do with music. It's been so long since I saw it, I can't remember what happened or what one it was in. :s

I know i can't believe that it was filmed in 2005 (something like that could be wrong) but she looks so similar in a good way.

Ok, I've found what one its from its only a small scene from My Buddy's Booty. What Ilovethewaltons mentioned "it's pop and lock" that scene is funny but then it leads to a sad scene.

BTW Ilovethewaltons it was way back in 2006 but I only saw them last year haha

Does anyone remember seeing Michael Learned playing a nun in a hospital drama from the 1980's called St. Elsewhere? I think it was a case of her character and another nun were in a car wreck and the other nun was brain dead and there was controversy about taking her off life support.

[ILoveTheWaltons]

I watched it last year it is on YouTube if you want to watch it.

I remember I seen that episode before I was a Waltons fan and I recognised her but it wasn't until I started watching The Waltons regularly that it clicked that it was Michael Learned.
