- Robin feels like the odd man out, Lisa seems to know Patrick a bit too well.

11/8
Robin gets a glimpse of "old Patrick" and wonders if he misses his bachelor days.

last posted some time in april and told you that abc would not be making contract announcements re: kmc and jt. the word is they have signed for a year and have similar but not identical out clauses.
the challenges lying in wait for robin and patrick are not intended as an end of kind as of what is available now.
it is the general policy not to make contract announcements. some times they do at the request of the actor or if there is a publicity gain to be had but it's rare.
unfortunately I cannot expand further. just be wary of those baiting their hooks to tell you otherwise

SOD - Thumbs Up
For four years, viewers have watched the touching, tempestuous romance, courtship, wedding(s) and marriage of Drs. Robin Scorpio and Patrick Drake. The fact that they're the happiest couple on the canvas is a testament to the interesting characters they are, the chemistry between Kimberly McCullough (Robin) and Jason Thompson (Patrick), and the effectiveness of their new status as a fun, frothy, private eye combo. We regret that Patrick's ex is hovering because so far, the writers have done a bang up job disproving the adage that a happy couple is a boring one without relying on predictable forays into jealousy and miscommunication. {source)

All from Kali, a suppose varified insider at SOS:
Is there still no info on the scrubs storyline? TIA
Robin tells him she's not threatened by Lisa, but then is unnerved when Lisa sends Patrick a thank you gift. Later, Patrick is unsettled to see Robin & Lisa becoming friends.
Thanks Kali. Do you have anything on Matt??? There are a lot of rumors about him.
Matt & Lisa click the week of Thanksgiving
Robin, Sam & Molly are going to play matchmakers with Mac & Alexis.
Hey any chance we're going to see an updated or new opening sequence?
Yes, its coming.

11/4

Guys, there is no Alexis/Mac. The kids push them together, and they have some time together, but Alexis doesn't feel attracted towards Mac in that way. It leads her to question why she's only attracted to men who have somekind of edge, or problem or darkness to them. It bums her out. Cause she should want someone like Mac.

11/5
There is a twist with Lisa coming to town and no scrubs are not splitting up.
Is it a good twist or a stupid one? You never know with Guza
It depends what you consider a good and a bad twist. Both Patrick and Robin will be insecure.
Can u give us a hint on their insecurities? Do they handle them together?
Yes, and that is one thing you are going to love about their story, but they will talking to other people about it too. Matt/Patrick and Robin/Maxie.

11/6
Scrubs will have angst but will be make it through.
