Scrubs ( season 2 ) - wikipedia Scrubs ( season 2 ) Scrubs ( season 2 ) DVD cover Country of origin United States No. of episodes 22 Release Original network NBC Original release September 26, 2002 ( 2002 - 09 - 26 ) -- April 17, 2003 ( 2003 - 04 - 17 ) Season chronology ← Previous Season 1 Next → Season 3 List of Scrubs episodes The second season of the American comedy television series Scrubs premiered on NBC on September 26, 2002 and concluded on April 17, 2003 and consists of 22 episodes. For the second season Neil Flynn was made a series regular. Colin Hay guest starred for the first time. It is also the first time an episode gives the narration to another regular, in `` His Story ''. The show used a longer opening credits sequence for episodes 1 and 2, moving through the ward rather than just two beds, including a shot of Flynn as The Janitor, showing the names of the series regulars and ending with the chest X-ray showing the heart on the left side of the chest. NBC wanted longer content in the episodes so the credits permanently returned to the shorter version in episode 3, without Flynn nor actors names and with the mirror image chest X-ray. The second season focuses on Dr. John Dorian 's second year practicing medicine at Sacred Heart, where he is now a resident. In the season opener, everyone is still in shock from the secrets Jordan just revealed ( `` My Last Day '' ). As the season develops, J.D. 's older brother Dan ( Tom Cavanagh ) comes to visit, money issues affect J.D., Elliot, and Turk, Turk proposes to Carla, and Elliot finds a new boyfriend, a nurse named Paul Flowers ( Rick Schroder ). Dr. Cox resumes a sexual relationship with his ex-wife Jordan, with quite unexpected results.
