Think the drama of ER, Grey’s Anatomy or House MD most accurately portray the everyday lives of those working in the medical field? Think again. Despite its goofy exterior, Scrubs is well known by health workers as the most accurate medical show on television. We’re not sure how well newcomers Trauma and Hawthorne stack up, but Scrubs captures the everyday cases doctors and nurses have to handle, the not-so-exciting administrative details and even the way in which hospitals must wrangle with health insurance companies. So we’re glad they’ve managed to stay on the air, despite last summer’s talk of pulling the plug. {Thanks, Corina! via Slate}

Little birds told us that the uterus shirt made it onto television’s “The Soup” yesterday, appearing on the body of Nerdist champ Chris Hardwick, who now does for the internet what “The Soup” did for TV on — you guessed it — “Web Soup.” We sniffed around Nerdist.com looking for the uterus (apparently he wore it on a “Web Soup” episode last month) and were excited to find Chris sporting the Guts + Glands shirt while performing some hard-core Extreme Office Parkour, leaping over cubicles and smashing computers. It’s pretty awesome. Anyway, if you happen to watch reruns of E!’s The Soup, keep your eye out for the womb! And if you have it on Tivo, please let us know, we haven’t seen it yet! Woo hoo, thanks Michelle, for sending this pic in!
