A dance routine performed by Donald Faison's character, Dr. Turk, in the popular sitcom Scrubs has been used as a default emote in the massively popular video game Fortnite since its launch in 2017.
Scrubs was influential in many ways, and one of the properties it inspired shows just how much impact the medical sitcom had on popular culture at large, rather than just the TV industry. Every doctor in Scrubs brought something new to the table, and one in particular had a moment so cool that it was copied and pasted into a video game that took the world by storm in 2017 and is still massive today.
All nine seasons of Scrubs aired between 2001 and 2010, but the show was canceled after major changes made in the final run were not received well by the sitcom's devoted audience. With a Scrubs revival now confirmed to be on the way, showrunner Bill Lawrence has the opportunity to fix the mistakes with Scrubs season 9 and allow the cult classic to bow out on a much better note. Despite Scrubs' dormancy for the last 15 years, it has still quietly been acknowledged in a very significant and surprising way. Donald Faison's Dance As Turk In 'My Half-Acre' Was Used As Fortnite's Default Dance Emote Turk's audition for the Janitor's band came 11 years before Fortnite's launch. In Scrubs season 5, episode 9,'My Half-Acre,' the B story revolves around Neil Flynn's Janitor taking the concept of the air guitar several steps further by assembling an entire air band. While auditioning for an air frontman, Donald Faison's Dr. Christopher'Chris' Turk performs an impressive dance routine to'Poison' by Bell Biv Devoe. The dance was adopted by Epic Games' Fortnite in 2017 when the game launched. It was one of the default emotes, so it was immediately available to all players. However, the emote is far shorter than Turk's actual dance. Fortnite is primarily a battle royale game, and it had and still has a pretty broad appeal. However, it's more common among younger age group
