20 Things You Didn't Know About Scrubs

5. "What Do You Say, Bob?"

Of all the actors to appear in Scrubs' main cast, John C. McGinley had the most impressive career going in. He had had major roles in such classics as Platoon (1986), Point Break (1991), Seven (1995) and The Rock (1996), and had made a name for himself as a strong and passionate character actor.

On Scrubs, one of his most frequent lines is aimed at Dr Kelso when he wants his opinion or is insulting him: "What do you say, Bob?"

For anyone who hasn't seen the film, this is the same line McGinley uses in Platoon, and he decided to throw it into Scrubs as a nice little call-back to his earlier career. Simple, but effective.
