John Michael "J.D." Dorian, M.D., is a fictional character and protagonist of the American comedy-drama television series, Scrubs.
Portrayed by Zach Braff, J.D. acts as the narrator and main character of the series from seasons one to eight, providing voice-overs that reveal his internal thoughts, often linking the story arcs in each episode.
J.D. appears in every episode during the first eight seasons, except for two in season 8: "My Absence," in which he is briefly heard through a mobile phone, and "My Full Moon." He later returns as a major character for six episodes of the ninth and final season. Braff also briefly portrayed the character in the webisode spin-off series Scrubs: Interns and the Muppets television film It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie.
Both the character and Braff's performance were positively received. Braff was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series in 2005 and received three consecutive Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Television Series Musical or Comedy nominations from 2005 to 2007.[2][3]
