Scrubs: The Janitor's Real Name

[Lendenben]

On the episode "My last day" one guy calls him "Tim"

[AnjaKatharinaSchultz]

I think his name is Tom!

Its the second time , we can here this name!

[King1Alpha]

Nope,i have the hole seson of scrub,n I put this part in subtile forgot what he saide,but it wasnt hes name

[heart9888666]

u know his real name is tommy and u find out in the last episode of series 8

[Avenneh]

@heart9888666

He lied, about 5 seconds later some other guy calls him another name, which implies that he is telling different names to people

[noahvogelbacher]

lol he said "nice one. you tell him"

[HECKproductions]

i like how everyone quotes what he actually says eventho the 2 top comments are it

[springie6879]

@Kingofdowntown1 oh :/ i thought he said nicely told lol either way you have to be deff to think that he said Tom :L

[TheMuzzaboii]

isnt his name josh when he tell cox his nicknames

[Polecat147]

Nicely told?

[EseyErm]

/watch?v=RN3GjdPKiCI&

[Kruezoraxe]

Not to mention the fact that it was shown that he was in The Fugitive which means that his name could very well be Neil Flynn.

[MasterOwnage007]

sounds more like nicely done

[erin10299]

I think he's actually saying 'tell him'.

[MisterPEENG]

He did not lie and the producer of scrubs said in apress conference that the real name realy is glenn mathews

[AnthonyJoseph22]

In the one where JD leaves he says its glen mathews then someone goes by and calls him Tommy... maybe he just used Tommy or Tom with co-workers or lied to JD

[TakashiXzero]

in the end, we just have to realise the joke is to NEVER know his name. however, i believe his name is josh because there was a scene with an dr cox

cox: why are you torturing me?

janitor: because you called me stupid. i've been called a great many horrible names in my life. BACKSTABBER, ZEBRA POACHER, JOSH. and i have accepted these because in each of them there is a degree of TRUTH

[woodyburns]

In the episode where he married lady they cut it off but it sounds like they are getting ready to say either Charles, Chuck, Chester or chad

[traktorensteff]

We will never know if his name is really Glenn Matthews. If you watch the series it is not clear if he fooled JD again or not. It's not important what the producer said in an interview or on DVD.

[TheMatrixLogOut]

@traktorensteff dude, he is the frikin' producer, of course it is important

[traktorensteff]

@TheMatrixLogOut If you watch the series (and that is the important thing) it is not exactly clear if he fools him or not and that's the point I like so much of this show! ;-)

[TheMatrixLogOut]

@traktorensteff Yes, if you just watch the series and not the interviews, you won't know if he fooled JD again or told him the truth, you're right. I lol'd when I first saw this scene

[24jaramillo]

he says nice you tell him

[24jaramillo]

he says nice you tell him

[Sysorax]

i think the guy in this clip rather said, nice you tell him or something.

[mosesgoblue90]

nice u tell him is what he said....his name is glen matthews

[MadPropsToTheHood]

Nice Mytoll? Somebody is overzealous.

[mrmebs]

nice you told him . . .

[wake411]

The person who made this video is a fucking idiot!

[ficusali]

He says " Nice, Itor" which is Janitors made up name, as in (dr. Jan Itor)

[plain0ldm3]

He says : Nice you tell'em. Come on I cant believe that you heard Tom after so many rewinds.

[Kyuuketsuki8Neko]

.....he said, Nicely done

[nejckra]

His name is Ján Itor.

[ThePhoenix370]

sounds more like 'nice you tell him' .... weird.

[MrTombstonerko]

Its Josh

J|anitor

O|f

S|acred

H|art

[TheRetna1111]

@MrTombstonerko *Heart

[Hitman3BN5MAR]

Lol. His name has to be Neil Flynn because he was in the fugitive on the show. thats the only thing it could be. I guess this is what would happen if his carreer failed after the movie

[vaughngogh]

The janitor tells a lot of people different names.

[Ffantasy501]

"hahahahaha" one guy other guy "Nice you tell him" (not) "Nice one Tony" ...i put a comment like this a few years ago...

[ReaperP13]

his real name is glen Matthews someone had confirmed it I saw it on imdb and wiki

[overreaper]

He said "nice, you tell him"

[InThreeDimensions]

He said "yeah, you tell him".

[allthingsunimportant]

He's saying nicely Told. Not nice one tom.

[completely6125random]

/watch?v=RN3GjdPKiCI&feature=r­elated

[METTAALLIICA]

Type in facebook: Bring Back Original cast of scrubs and like!

[HaRveHHH]

if you hear tom... you are stupid..

[LloydStretfordEnd]

The guy clearly says "Nice, you told him". You obviously haven't seen the last Scrubs episode when he reveals his name is Glenn Matthews. Yet you have the time to make this video edit. Get laid.

[flashoftheblade1]

Glenn Matthews!

[AdamDoc1995]

@flashoftheblade1

in the episode were he says his names glen mathews when jd leaves another guy walks past and says hey tommy

so his name is actually tom

[sartanko]

@AdamDoc1995

But he lied to that guy as well.

I have one conclusion, Janitor was in The Fugitive.

Conclusion: The janitor is Neil Flynn.

He plays himself as a janitor!

[xKDAC]

His name is tom. On jd's last day he tells him it's glenn Matthews but then someone calls him Tommy.

[saisamaful]

I hear him say nicely, so it's impossible he says nicely tom,

he says nicely done, or nicely told

[spanglish123321]

His name is glen Matthews season 8 ep 18!

[likeastarbaby]

first of all, he isnt saying "nice one tom". secondly it makes no sense that after keeping his name a secret, they would randomly do that.

[EvilCookieMastermind]

'nice you told' if you ask me.

[Kuyte333]

@EvilCookieMastermind

or nicely told...

[PunkForTheMoment]

In one episode he says he's been called many things including BRAD!

[beatlesrock188]

why would you say, "nice you tell him" i've never heard that before

[fragrenade1]

@beatlesrock188 I have :L

[ChristanPaige]

He doesnt have a name. Janitor started as a figment of JD's imagination as a metaphorical display of the bad side of the hospital and everything JD fears from day 1, but he was only meant to last 2 seasons then they'd fade him out. Once the producers realisd people LOVED janitor, they decided to keep him.

[Hugeluke666]

He says nice you tell him

[rangerrrsmith]

He says "Nice you tell him" not "Nice one Tom"

[dachten]

But after Janitor reveal his true name to JD, a nurse walks pass him and sais "Hi Tommy" Tom is short for Tommyy right?

[Mo1992Ha]

"Nice Done "

[888Zing]

He said "nice!! You tell him" not Tom

[ChiefRepublic]

Dr.Jan Itor.

[XboxGod527]

his name is actualy josh.

J anitor

O f

S acred

H eart

+ theres an epiode where hes talking to carla and he sais " people have called me many names like janitor, cleaner,josh"

[Harlief]

Congratulations sir, you put spoilers about your video at the beginning of your video.

[shultzyman21]

yeah his name is actually Glenn Matthews, he reveals that in the episode where JD leaves Sacred Heart.

[Ascerus]

I thought it was Glen Matthews. Not NICE

[sarabear830]

Actually his name is Glenn Matthews (its true the producer said so)

[Maxi12318]

@sarabear830 Realy? I thought he would just kidding JD :D

[shittyfagg]

@sarabear830 he's just janitor why is everyone so desperate to find out his real name.. I mean, jesus, you don't know Q's real name in James Bond either, do you? Or John Doe's in Se7en. But people do not care about their real names, because they don't add up to the story, it just adds up to the .. well, mystery, can't really think of a better word. So why don't you all just cheer the fuck up and go do something useful?

[sarabear830]

@shittyfagg if you don't care then why did you watch the video in the first place?

[shittyfagg]

@sarabear830 so i could write this comment.

[sarabear830]

@shittyfagg you should get a life

[nurausspass1]

@sarabear830 No that is wrong!!!! The producer said that the janitator has no name. He also said that the name is a secret and nobody shall know his real name!!!

[sarabear830]

@nurausspass1 no, he said it was on a bonus disc of the completed series

[SteveyKoz]

@sarabear830

not its not, i cant remember what it was but its on the wikipedia page

he told him in the last episode

[SuperJohnlm]

@sarabear830 WTF dude? Why would you lie about that? You mother fucker, you make me so angry!

[sarabear830]

@SuperJohnlm I didn't......

[karnex21]

@sarabear830 but then a guy walks past him and says hi tommy



[Ingengerion]

@sarabear830 janitors name has never been said... Glenn Matthews isn't true... Tom neither... nobody knows his name (Fourth Season, Bonus Disc on the DVD's, complete interview with him and the producers)

[dave0616]

@Ingengerion Bill Lawrence said his name was Glenn Mathews on April 13 at 12:48pm on the scrubs facebook page watch the videa about 1:50 into it

[Ingengerion]

@dave0616 and you really do belive every single bullshit on facebook? lawl... Sorry matey, i would get a life if i were you

[dave0616]

@Ingengerion You do know Bill Lawrence is the creator of scrubs dont you? You know, the guy who wrote it produced it directed it.... You are an idiot "matey".

[Ingengerion]

@dave0616 Wootey, directly so awkwardish ironic with that "idiot" :> typical american behaviour Dumb, mindless and oh i forgot, just stupid... mate, we ALL did learn something from facebook: Never belive ANYTHING that's been posted from ANYONE - who says that's the true bill lawrence? hm? who? As long as I dont have any proof.... no thanks - mate... get a life...

[dave0616]

@Ingengerion It was VIDEO of BILL LARWARENCE talking about the janitor you moron not some random guy and not text VIDEO, did someone just fake the video? so I guess they faked this as well?

youtube.com/watch?v=nOLB38zn-h­o

your a troll

[MathWrath11]

@sarabear830 But right after the jnaitor admitted that, a guy walked by and said "How ya doin', Tom?"

[XtremeCao]

@MathWrath11 He actually said "How yah doing Tony"

[VanguardBeta]

@XtremeCao Actually he said Tommy. It doesn't matter though, the producer, Bill Lawrence, has confirmed his name is actually Glenn Matthews.

[Rocklar911]

@sarabear830 In the last episode of season 8, he says his name is Glen Matthews, but then someone calls him Tom, no one knows his name, he says a diffrent name to each one asking

[seanirons]

@sarabear830 It's actually Glenn Maffoof

[trialskid125]

@sarabear830 You mean Glen Mathu!

[JustAnotherStar92]

well bill lawrence said his real name is glen mathews :D

[Gavin17259]

@theFataliT Actually, not to be picky, but the guy actually says "Hey, tony".

[JJDOG9]

@thethakeo well wikipedia lies all the time

[TheThakeo]

wikipedia says that neil flynn (the actor of the Janitor) plays himself in this series.

So Janitor's rue name is Neil Flynn :D

[jibbletjangle]

Yes the actual line is "Nice, you tell 'em" but if you listen for "Nice one, Tom" you'll hear it.

[CuCulainn1]

he said nice you told him knob end

[raydon1005]

no F***in way i have seen neardly every episode and i never figured he's name thank dude thank u

[MoNiToRstudios1]

actual Bill Lawrence(the creator of scrubs) said on that scrubs facebook video that his real name is glen mathew :)

[Bowie5386]

If you watch the entire series, he likes to mess with people. Right after he tells JD his names is Glenn Matthews, someone else comes up and calls him something else. I doubt the creators of the show named him at all. Or... his name could really be Jan Itor haha. What people call him in the show is irrelevant.

[lgmk55]

@Bowie5386 the guy calls him tommy after he tells jd hes called glenn

[blackchameleon100]

actually if you watch two seconds later the guy walking by says "hey tommy"

[freepirateXD]

do you guys REALLY think his name is Glen Mathews? I just don't feel like he would ever tell JD his real name, no matter what!

[magicskyfairy69]

@freepirateXD it is glenn matthews, read the wiki

[freepirateXD]

@magicskyfairy69 ....i know that that's whats in the show, i'm just saying, the janitor would never actually tell jd his real name. ever. glenn matthews is just another one of his conspiracy.

[malik436]

he tells JD that his name is glenn matthews but right after that another man walks by and says something like "Hi Johnny". therefore his name is still unkown.

[poisonrain87]

Gen Maffews

[MrLeftywright]

hw fakees his name all the time but in the finale of season 8 his name is revealed to be ........ GLEN MATTHEWS

[B0MBALI9]

@MrLeftywright yeah and then afterwards another guy came by and called him Tony.....................

[chaosmaster1725]

His name is Glen Matthews.

NOT TOM!

[chazgold]

well, his name is Tom. watch the end of season 8

[isticalsheep]

in one episode with his father his name was leslie

[mrfalafl]

His name is Dr. Jan Itor!

[voodoochild954]

i think he's saying nice you tell him

[wyokid999]

"hey Tommy"

look up

Scrubs Janitor Reveals His Name

poster is blue1231

some reason its not letting me post link

[nigahiiiga]

The Janitors name might be Neil Flynn. Because in the episode when JD spots Janior in "The Fugitive" he says "Jaintor!".

Since the one playing the cop in the movie name's Neil Fynn it must mean that Janitors name IS Neil Flynn. Just a thought.

[radd3hC]

Nice you 'told him'

fool...

[hazahaxa]

His name starts with S. In the episode where he gets married the vicar/priest whatever says "Do you, S-" and then gets interrupted. Twice. Then he's just like "Do you take this woman to be you wife" or something along those line.

[ProjectJosh1]

i thought his name was tony

[bandpractise]

his name is josh... bill lawrence even says so in the bonus features in the scrubs collectors edition.

[killa2000dec]

@bandpractise Josh standing for Janitor Of Sacred Heart, but he has names and nicknames: glen, tony, tom, rotinaj, nigel the brit, klaus the german, ephraim the stutterer, lurch, moppenstein, chewie, jumpsuit, shrek, mongo, sasquatch, supercuts ect. if i named them all i would need about 5 comments. he claims he went to yale and later he said he went to harvard, he starts each day with a bath on the roof of sacred heart where the epiphemy toilet was and has a fetish of taxidermy. strange man.

[Mrlajnia]

In another episode, Cox calls him tommy. But still, maybe he lies to everybody

[johnotakum]

after snooping around the web, I've found his name IS tom. but as kulas1112 said he DOES lie about his identity quite a bit. he gives a few examples in one episode, where apparently many of the doctors and interns think he's not who he is, E.X. a German man, a british man, and there was one more that I can't recall, but he does present these different personalities well enough that nobody really knows it's a lie.

[heroicfailures]

pretty sure he plays himself. and just because someone calls him tom doesnt make that his name. he is the janitor afterall

[Kulas1112]

So what? He probably lied to them!

[chipsman2008]

but he still sayd "Nice, Tom"

[RufioMini]

@chipsman2008 It's "Nice, you tell him."

[chipsman2008]

@RufioMini no it was tom!

[Browncoatt22]

He might get referred to as Tom at some other point, but this time it is DEFINATLEY "Nice, you tell him" IT IS ON THE DVD SUBTITLES PEOPLE!

[hyperboyo]

its not edited becouse i watched the ep today and it was the same and its to long to be "you tell him" but this is could be a break in the case plus in other eps people say tom

[hyperboyo]

its not edited becouse i watched the ep today and it was the same and its to long to be "you tell him" but this is could be a break in the case

[larsino34]

I thought it was Dr. Jan Irtor

[duko70]

Quite clearly says "nice you tell him" anyways jd sees him in the fugitive in one of the episodes so there for if jd hoped on the computer and researched the fugitive cast list he would see "Neil Flynn ", in scrubs the janitors name is neill Flynn. Or the other option could be Glenn Mathews, bill Lawrence tells everyone that the janitors name is glenn

[brandt516]

this was obviously just edited

[essie7198]

he says that in the last episode too! like JD walks away after his last etempt to find out his name and a surgeon walks up to the janitor and said, 'Hey Tom.' And the janitor waved!!!

[RoninAway]

I think the janitor will remain a mystery for all eternity OO

[ASTomlinson]

he tells JD his name is Glenn Matthews in the final episode, but then a guy walks past and calls him Tony, furthermore he has those 3 false aliases in one of the earlier seasons. No one knows for sure I don't think!

[ju111991]

i think he says "nice one tall"

[Mitch7297]

@luccje13 yeah he does

[maydayparadebbzz]

he says nice you tell him

cos I can swear in another episode he told jd his name was something then he told someone else it was Glenn or something I dunno

[SillyIrishPenguin]

I thought he said "nice, dog."

[theracoonofjake]

oh I thought his name was Rotinaj

[DOMOMAN89]

His name is Jan Itor!!! xD

[TeamRegis]

Has anyone subtitled it to get confirmation of this?

[rawrbot]

he was called Tommy in Season 8 finale

[Saiyuki666Lover]

@rawrbot Actually, I'm pretty sure it was tony

[rawrbot]

@Saiyuki666Lover

oops yep, you're right

[theunforgiven2abc]

no matter if he said tom or not! not the first time janitor sais some name! he even tells JD his name at the bginning of an episode, and at the end you find out it wasn't his real name... just life with NOT KNOWING HIS NAME! good one thei didn't end arubs airing janitors name!

[misinformed222]

Thought he said, "Nice, Utah." So, obviously, he was placing bets before laughing at that joke.

[Stoney2010UK]

He defo says "nice you tell him"

[ghostdog8985]

"nice one tom" i think he said

[bubbleygum120]

isnt tom is actual name and the actor just failed?

[Snarptusk]

@bubbleygum120 nah his actual name is Neil Flynn :p

[Ruggerschr]

Nice you tell em.  No doubt about it.

[nibhera9]

he says Nice Job

[frankmat]

I thought he said "Nice Retort"

[tehpixie]

its always possible that he told that group  a people a fake name.

[CrownZer0o]

He plays himself, does he not? He's an actor as JD finds out when he sees him in The Fugitive, so if that's right he's Neil Flynn :)!

[Meristakk]

@CrownZer0o So true!

[CrazyCactusDance]

@CrownZer0o he gives his name away in the very last episode with JD but even then someone walks by and calls him something different

[mikehouse357]

@CrownZer0o

His identity in he show isnt Neil Flynn ths whole joke is that you never know his name... after Janitor tells J.D. his name is Glenn Mathews the guys walks buy him and calls him Tony...

[CrownZer0o]

@mikehouse357 Yes, I know, i'm just saying - technically he's Neil Flynn :)

[PotatoRichards]

@mikehouse357 He calls him Johnny?

[silverdragon147]

@mikehouse357 Tony or Tommy?

[sgtank123]

isnt it "nice u tell him"?

[xXxelerate]

who watched this with closed captioning

[petcalledros]

Mate, listen to the intonation. Even though it could be mistaken for "Nice one tom" it is not because 'tom' is stressed out. He is saying "Nice you tell him (nice, yutelim)
