The Scrubs revival has come to an end… for now. The finale episode, “My Celebration,” made way for plenty of exciting returns, but also one major cliffhanger surrounding fan favorite Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley). Warning: Spoilers for the Scrubs finale ahead!
As viewers learned in the penultimate episode, Dr. Cox was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease that causes renal failure of the kidneys. While J.D. (Zach Braff) was optimistic about treating his mentor, the finale began with Dr. Cox avoiding tests that would determine how the treatment was working.
