10 Best Performances In Scrubs

Though Jordan Sullivan (sister of Ben and ex-wife of Dr Cox) was merely a brief recurring player in the first season, it soon became apparent just how great a character the writers had on their hands, and her role grew with the show.

Christa Miller was the perfect actress to bring Jordan to life. Tough, loyal, honest and blunt, she was a source of great comedy and often acted as a mini-antagonist to the core gang. But under her hard exterior and seemingly unflappable nature, there was always something tragic and moving about the character, and Miller was the master of showing this vulnerability when she needed to.

Jordan's relationship with Perry also gave Miller a chance to stretch her legs and play several roles at once - she was the voice of reason, the brutally honest best friend, the doting mother and the cold enemy. Miller owned every aspect of the character, and Jordan today is rightfully seen as a fan favourite.
