In 2014, in the fifth season premiere of the NBC television comedy series "Community", a narration by J.D. (Braff) from a ninth-season episode of "Scrubs" is used to provide a voice-over summary. Earlier in the episode, "Repilot", Braff is mentioned in reference to the unpopular ninth season of "Scrubs", to which the characters involved mock for the appearance of Braff in a mere six episodes of the semi-reboot (which itself also served as a meta-commentary on the fact that Donald Glover would also only be appearing in five episodes of the similarly semi-rebooted "Community").
