Lucas Tucker And to think Neil Flynn was almost Dr. Cox. Can you imagine what "Dr. Jan Itor" woulda been like calling JD Newbie? xD But things did work out for Neil in the end.
I think after playing the same role for nearly 10 years, actors kind off become their characters. It's just like the actor from House MD, who actually developed a psychological limp in real life after playing his role as Gregory House for so long.
Scrubs, to me, is one of the most well-written and underrated shows. The Dr. Cox character is an all-time favorite. It's so weird, and neat, that this guy was one of "the Bobs" in "Office Space."
What a guy. Anybody who remember the Scrubs episode where he can't save some guy before the episode when he goes into a depression will know how much of a good actor he is.
when i watched scrubs at age 12 y/o, i thought Dr.Cox is a bad person. Now that I rewatched Scrubs, I changed my mind. Dr. Cox is a good guy. Funny how maturity changes you.
nur hafizah JD and Elliot used to be my favourites when I was in my teens. Now? Dr. Turk and Dr. Cox. They really develop a lot more during the series.
I think he plays the character of Dr. Perry Cox perfectly. He does a phenomenal job of portraying the character of as he put it, the badass with the heart of gold. John C. McGinley is just a great actor playing a great part. I absolutely love this show. I'm a bit late on it and I'm doing my best to catch up. I stumbled upon the first season DVD set a few years ago and fell in love with the show and all its gags, jokes and loveable characters. Just a great actor. Love him in this role.
I haven't had the chance to meet him properly but I've been in very close proximity to him twice. I work as an Emt in a famous club in Dublin and have heard him talk to people a couple of times and can whole heartedly say that he is a gentlemen and a half! A very nice and thankful guy, and seems so genuine. Really warms my heart to see famous people turn out to be lovely people, and that's exactly how I'd describe him!
Miss Scrubs. One of my favourite sitcoms. Some sitcoms are funny maybe the first two seasons then it gets old and boring, but this show made me laugh for 8 seasons, season 9 wasn't as funny but I could watch it. Love Dr Cox, JD and the janitor. I can't imagine anyone else playing Dr Cox. He played it very well.
+Laywa Wood it is naive to claim that Scrubs is perfect, but for some reason when I watch Scrubs, everything critical disappears. I just enjoy every minute.
Man you can see the Cox influence in his real character. The arrogant humiliation master syndrome takes over at certain points it's like he can't hold it back! lol fucking A i love and admire his role
Bill Lawrence created Scrubs. And the actors perfected it. Sarah's terrible singing, Neil Flynne's making up his own lines, John's suggestion with the "teaspoon of dirt and sugar" thing, Donald's singing and dancing, that memorable episode(My Way Home) Zach directed and his goofy nature, Judy using the Spanish language, and...Robert Maschio being The Todd.
He made such a good job...He shined even surrounded by other people doing a fantastic job. But Cox won them all. Really got into my heart a lot of times, and that ´s a very difficult achievement... Bow to you, Mr. John.
I think that some people might think that he's really full of himself, that he's really only out there for himself, but i think it's just his honesty and bluntness, which i love.
I always love it when the actors have the same personalty as the character they play for shows! In lost, Sawyer was one of my fav. chas. In real he such a different person 🙈
I remember catching glimpses of this show... But I started watching it from the beginning on Netflix.. His character has so much depth... Love it... And yes Black ppl watch Scrubs too! Lol
Cut from the same cloth as James Woods..brilliant at playing smart, cynical ( and yes, sometimes slimy) characters...great actor , needs to be used more in films ( remember how great he was in Platoon/Wall Street amongst others)
Jonny C is so much NOT Dr Cox, it shows how much of a good actor he is. This interview is on one of the extras of a Scrubs DvD and when Sarah and Christa come in and more or less "Crash" John's interview he almost seems bashful. LOVE SCRUBS TY for this upload.
The episodes in which cox shows his heart of gold (touching moments with jd or when his patients die.) are some of the most memorable episodes from the show.
I met him, took pctures with him and got an autograph, im the biggest scrubs fanatic you can find and it was the scariest and greatest moment of my life
10 years ago this was uploaded, 10. I'm starting to get this odd feeling... you realize that in another 20 years, people will be finding randomly uoade TH-cam video from 20 years before? our grqt grand kids will be digging through TH-cam and finding clips from 50 years before they were born. It will be like us finding videos from the 1930s. dang.
breakingthemasks yeah, in some sense it seems that later generations will have a much greater insight into us because of the wealth of information we’ve left behind, but that’s assuming future generations of people will even have TH-cam as a resource.
Even when he played in Are We Done Yet, and was a sweet heart I loved him so having 8 seasons of him on TV is awesome. It's cool too see the real him in the interview though, he seems nice.

nobody could have played Dr.Cox like him
Lucas Tucker And to think Neil Flynn was almost Dr. Cox. Can you imagine what "Dr. Jan Itor" woulda been like calling JD Newbie? xD But things did work out for Neil in the end.
Lucas Tucker maybe that guy who plays House?
Only and only if Hugh Laurie acted with his normal British voice and not as Dr. House. I know people love House, but I like Hugh Laurie as an actor.
+FirestoneX Iwonder who will win in an arguement
House or Cox
+codename617 bahaha I could see the janitor being Dr Cox!! Like literally the only other person who could have pulled it off
"I like to be in waiting rooms with people as they're auditioning, because their terror calms me." damn he's Dr Cox in real life too
Eve lyn hahaha I had the same thought when hearing him say that.
The smile as he says "I'm getting this gig" is Dr. Cox for sure
@@barringtonfisher87 omg true
... So that was Bill Lawrence's right choice. I love this series.
@@barringtonfisher87 Then Kevin Kasey walks in.. ouch.
Dr. Cox played John C McGinley well
3 years later I was your 333rd like
Exactly!!! All I see is Dr. Cox!!!!!!!!
well spotted
Very we'll
its a shame that this man never won an emmy. srsly. one of the best actors ever in a tv show
He's genuinely so much like his character; alot of the cast were, that's why it was such an amazing show.
That's the purpose and skill of a good casting director: finding an actor whose personality is close to the character to be played.
Hooch really IS crazy!
I think after playing the same role for nearly 10 years, actors kind off become their characters. It's just like the actor from House MD, who actually developed a psychological limp in real life after playing his role as Gregory House for so long.
he's way more calm irl and less of a character, but yea he seems smart like his character tbh
there is one more possibility hes not coming out of his role just because scrubs are grenius
Scrubs, to me, is one of the most well-written and underrated shows. The Dr. Cox character is an all-time favorite. It's so weird, and neat, that this guy was one of "the Bobs" in "Office Space."
Underrated? It's incredibly well rated.
Its not as popular as f.e. friends or other sitcoms
@@lucaaz14 hm it is. depends on the people you talk to i guess
This show got me through a relationship when i didnt know what i was doing😔
@@BipoIarbear there now
I am in love with this guy ever since watching the first episode. He is one of the most underrated actors in world history.
+Lightningsoul oh yeah. it is odd we don`t see more of him.
Jelena Stojanovic I think he is too shy. :(
He is amazing in Dean Koontz's Intensity.
he's stan...stan against evil....YOu can sorta sense the 'cox' in his character
Loved his character in “Platoon!!!!!!!”
"Help me help you"
"Help me help you"
"Help me help you!"
"Help me help you!"
Everything everything everything everything
Yea, they got that from Jerry Maguire tho :)
@@Maaden84 cool story bro
How did TH-cam know that I was rewatching scrubs....?
dont know but YT now made me rewatch for sure xD
Same here
Me too
There's a rewatch podcast so I'd say a lot of people are bumping it up the algorithm right now too
@N N R U amen the 1% control everything never let the 99% experience real life
One of the most underestimated actor ever.
Underrated
Underrated u idiot! Lololololol fuckin knob
Fuckin knob
Jared Marshall Shut the fuck up bitch
It guarantees likes
"Hard-ass with a heart of gold."
Perfect way to describe Dr. Cox.
John is a brilliant actor.
Brilliant.
"Their terror calms me"
Typical Cox
Sounds EXACTLY like something Cox would say.
people watched the video u idiot
Typical coxism
What a guy. Anybody who remember the Scrubs episode where he can't save some guy before the episode when he goes into a depression will know how much of a good actor he is.
3 patients die on him actually. The episode is called My Lunch.
They got rabies when Jill Tracy died and they donated her infected organs.
Season 5 episode I can't remember what one though
when i watched scrubs at age 12 y/o, i thought Dr.Cox is a bad person. Now that I rewatched Scrubs, I changed my mind. Dr. Cox is a good guy. Funny how maturity changes you.
nur hafizah JD and Elliot used to be my favourites when I was in my teens. Now? Dr. Turk and Dr. Cox. They really develop a lot more during the series.
nur hafizah He's the best
"Judy's a beautiful , beautiful latin woman"
He has a crush on her even in real life....
Why Bee McNoMistake who wouldn’t 😍
I shipped Carla and Cox so much ;((( xD
@@grandecapoestiqaatsi4598 Scrubs has survived into the age of shippers... Gives me a little glimmer of hope in this world.
John C. McGinley was the exact person to play Dr. Cox. No one could have played him better.
AnxietyMisfit don't forget Hugh jackman
Learning by Hearing that's the point. imagin how mad he would be if hugh jackman could play the part better
@@greywolf187 Hugh Jackman could easily do it better.
@@mikeokhurtz2152 no

I hope he knows how much we love him and his character.
Best character in TV history
And thus the best character of Scrubs was made
I haven't had the chance to meet him properly but I've been in very close proximity to him twice. I work as an Emt in a famous club in Dublin and have heard him talk to people a couple of times and can whole heartedly say that he is a gentlemen and a half! A very nice and thankful guy, and seems so genuine. Really warms my heart to see famous people turn out to be lovely people, and that's exactly how I'd describe him!
the fact that johnny calls zach braff ‘zachy’ on the podcast makes me so happy
And he calls Bill Lawrence, ‘Billy’ haha. When I heard that I screamed laughed from all the joy it brought me lol
He's exactly like Dr. Cox in real life!
My boss is just like Cox. Actually Id choose to work Cox over my boss.
Is he your mentor. Do you act like JD
This guy has so much skill in Scrubs. Just the way he does his peices... Breathtaking... I just wish he would be featured in more films/shows.
15 year old comment lol
An amazing actor. I'm surprised to find he's so much like his character in real life. That's probably what makes scrubs so special. Big fan.
I look at him and I just can't not see Dr. Cox.
TheTrohl Same here. I have seen him in many other toles before he was on Scrubs. But, he owned his part so well.
His character was one of my favorites on tv, he played it to perfection.
The fact that he is like Dr. Cox in real life just makes me love him more! "Their terror calms me" 😂
Nobody could have played me better than John C. McGinley.
LOL
Yeah cox's character wouldn't be as interesting if John hadn't playn him and also as he said, the good side of cox didn't leak in from time to time.
Neil Flynn (Janitor) actually auditioned for Cox first! I wonder how it would have been… I love them both but I think the result was the best way.
magnuswilen He would have been a terrible Cox.
You never know. Maybe Neil would've adapted to the roll of Co. It would definitely be different from John's dr cox though
Hey Aladin
... for a moment, i just imagine how could it be he in the janitor role XD
Miss Scrubs. One of my favourite sitcoms. Some sitcoms are funny maybe the first two seasons then it gets old and boring, but this show made me laugh for 8 seasons, season 9 wasn't as funny but I could watch it.

+Laywa Wood scrubs is NOT a sitcom
+julisz haas yes, it is. Are you dumb?
Eli Winterscheidt my answer to your statement is the same as my answer to your question: "no :)"
are you a turd?
the internet showing its true face ⬆⇧(:
+Laywa Wood it is naive to claim that Scrubs is perfect, but for some reason when I watch Scrubs, everything critical disappears. I just enjoy every minute.
Man you can see the Cox influence in his real character. The arrogant humiliation master syndrome takes over at certain points it's like he can't hold it back! lol fucking A i love and admire his role
McGinley is one of a kind and was perfect for his role on Scrubs. He played a similar character in the movie Article 99. I hope we see more of him!
Bill Lawrence created Scrubs. And the actors perfected it. Sarah's terrible singing, Neil Flynne's making up his own lines, John's suggestion with the "teaspoon of dirt and sugar" thing, Donald's singing and dancing, that memorable episode(My Way Home) Zach directed and his goofy nature, Judy using the Spanish language, and...Robert Maschio being The Todd.
the need to revive the series with all actors coming together again, but with like 10 years passed.
i think they are doing it now!!
Scrubs is one of my all time favorites, Great, fresh writing, great characters, great cast and off beat humor.
He is a very underrated actor.
Thanks for this upload. Really enjoyed it.
I'm so glad i'm not the only one who still watches all the eps on repeat. This show meant so much to me...
what an amazing guy. brilliant actor. brilliant personality. hes sooo funi even in real life and hes a super father aswell. i love him.
He made such a good job...He shined even surrounded by other people doing a fantastic job. But Cox won them all. Really got into my heart a lot of times, and that ´s a very difficult achievement... Bow to you, Mr. John.
The terror of people calms him...Dr. Cox for real :D
I think that some people might think that he's really full of himself, that he's really only out there for himself, but i think it's just his honesty and bluntness, which i love.
He was great in Platoon
he was also the only good thing in the animal
Jack Bierknecht I got a bad feelin Bob. I mean I got a bad feelin.
intensity
What about set it off?
@@allenm2705 why, what are you saving up to be? Jewish?
he's really underrated, he should at least have been nominated for an emmy in one of the seasons.
His brilliant. Love love his acting.
Well im glad you did re-upload this. Thank you sir!
Thank you for posting this!
this came up randomly on my recommended while i’m rewatching scrubs but i’m not complaining, what an absolute legend he is
my favourite actor ever
I always love it when the actors have the same personalty as the character they play for shows!
In lost, Sawyer was one of my fav. chas.
In real he such a different person 🙈
Dr. Cox... definitely a television gem!

I remember catching glimpses of this show... But I started watching it from the beginning on Netflix.. His character has so much depth... Love it... And yes Black ppl watch Scrubs too! Lol
Of course we do, I just finished the entire series just 2 days ago lol.
Comedy Central & Netflix baby helped become a Scrubs fan for life!!
Black people love scrubs. It's great.
The show is brilliant!!!
Time to get an EKG, G
this is great! thanks for posting it!
Cut from the same cloth as James Woods..brilliant at playing smart, cynical ( and yes, sometimes slimy) characters...great actor , needs to be used more in films ( remember how great he was in Platoon/Wall Street amongst others)
I never thought of making that comparison to James Woods, but you're absolutely right!
13 years later this comes to my for your page on TH-cam! We're watching the series at the moment, Season 6 already 🙂
Wow he is the most honest actor Iv ever seen
He so nailed the role.
Awesome, thanks for uploading it.
he's still amazing! i saw him first in scrubs and then in Platoon and this guy is my idol
he's an awesome man!
John C McGinley so candid. I love it.
I can't imagine anyone playing Dr. Cox other than him! Glad he got it!
My all time favorite series, it was the perfect show! Chuck is a close second. :)
he is so awesome , I really enjoyed his acting in scrubs and wild hogs. He's one of my favourite actors
Jonny C is so much NOT Dr Cox, it shows how much of a good actor he is. This interview is on one of the extras of a Scrubs DvD and when Sarah and Christa come in and more or less "Crash" John's interview he almost seems bashful.

You're amazing Doctor Cox!
What a goddamn legend. I’d love to grab a beer with Johnny C.
i agree! i love the way he talks and also his mannerisms!
I really enjoyed this guy in Intensity as a serial killer. Pretty awesome 2 part mini series
Thanks for sharing!
His rants on the show are one of the best parts.
A brilliant actor, and my favourite Scrubs character, because of his tough but fair approach to the role.
He seems to be very down to earth and straight forward.
He is a great actor..... why dont i see him in anything anymore!
Hey, at least we can watch him on "Ground Floor" as Mr.Mansfield! :D
LuisAngel DA vert true. Hey thank you for replying to this!
No problem, he is a great actor! :)
One of my favourite actors
it's an epic line from this epic movie, duder.
I met him, took pctures with him and got an autograph, im the biggest scrubs fanatic you can find and it was the scariest and greatest moment of my life
MOAR! I MUST HAVE MOAR!
I can't believe he never won an Emmy.
John, Sarah and Christa look so good together
he is one of the best and funny actors i´ve seen. i have seen "scrubs" and this guy rules!!

Wow he's awesome seems pretty damn genuine and isn't sugar coating anything his acting is brilliant on scrubs aswell
I don't know why,but he make me cry.
He is a kind,lovely,good and nice person,that's just make me cry...
This guys is awesome, he makes me laugh A LOT! Hes one of a kind for sure.
nobody ever thinks their show will get picked up. i can relate to that. I'm still waiting for my life to get picked up.
Love this guy man,he is a true hero
Great actor, great and goodman!
it is been over 8 years ago and I can still see nearly 630K views of this clip. Yes the Scrubs have enriched my life too.
ive watched scrubs through so many times i'm surprised I'm only just now seeing this interview in 2020
Watching scrubs during lockdown now
One of my favourite US comedies
Even when he played in Are We Done Yet, and was a sweet heart I loved him so having 8 seasons of him on TV is awesome.
It's cool too see the real him in the interview though, he seems nice.
Love this guy, he made the show better
god I love Dr.Cox, real or not Johns work greatly impacted my life
he is just so awesome.
best actor ever!!! :)

Well done interview.
Very honest interview. I love seein this glimpse into the real world of scrubs
