Tomorrow night’s episode is going to be a musical. OK, half of you are already done, I know. A whole lot of folks out there have no interest in people spontaneously breaking out into song and choreographed dance, and if there’s anything worse than a musical, it’s a TV musical.

But before you run screaming, know this: The producers brought in ringers for this episode, in the form of Jeff Marx and Bobby Lopez, two of the creators of the Tony-winning Avenue Q. Ask someone who saw this show. It was good. And it wasn’t your standard musical; it was a smart, edgy, pop culture fest that also managed to say a little something about early adult life. When I was looking at one of the previews that are plastered all over the web, I realized that the guest star for the Scrubs episode is Stephanie D’abruzzo, who starred in Avenue Q and was funny and charming as hell. So, bonus.

As the first show I ever specced, Scrubs has a special place in my heart, so I have continued to watch every episode, only to be fairly consistently disappointed. (See the episode before last, in which Cox is transformed into Dr. House, for a particularly dreadful recent example. Did they purposely choose two all-but-unique medical conditions that were on episodes of House?)

Maybe Scrubs doesn’t deserve yet another chance. And maybe a musical TV episode is just never, never, never a good idea (unless your name is Joss Whedon.) But watch My Musical with me tonight. Let’s hope that a very, very talented group can knock one more out of the park. If it doesn’t work, I promise we can cross Scrubs off our watchlists together.
