Scrubs quickly become known as a series that was able to shift tone and carefully balance drama and comedy, keeping both of them equally effective. Lawrence talked a bit about this, saying "I like when we bridge the gap between the kind of broad, goofy comedy and emotional episodes…I like the one at the beginning of the first year of the show. It has so much meaning to me because we had three different patients and they all died. Each character had a patient. We killed all of them.I thought it was a way to tell people that might watch the show early on that it was going to be different than your average sitcom."
