Scrubs

The webisodes feature four interns in their first year at Sacred Heart Hospital – Katie Collins (Betsy Beutler), Denise "Jo" Mahoney (Eliza Coupe), Howie Gelder (Todd Bosley) and Sonja "Sunny" Dey (Sonal Shah), who "directs" the series as a video diary project. Ed Dhandapani (Aziz Ansari) is mentioned in passing but only appears in the final webisode.

Each of the main cast members of Scrubs appears in at least one webisode. Two recurring cast members, Ted and The Todd, also make appearances.

Some of the episodes relate directly to the main series. For example, "Screw You with Ted and the Gooch" consists largely of an unabridged scene from "My Lawyer's in Love."
