Neil Flynn Scrubs
Neil auditioned for the role of Dr. Cox in Scrubs, but instead he was given the role of Janitor. Originally he was only cast for the first episode (“My First Day”), but he became a regular, playing a character known only as the Janitor, who devotes much of his energy to menacing young Dr. John “J.D.” Dorian. His name is not revealed in the series until the season 8 finale when, upon J.D.’s first time asking about it, he simply says his name is Glenn Matthews.
This is also speculated to be false for two reasons: first, after J.D. leaves the shot, an orderly addresses the Janitor as “Tommy”; and second, while watching The Fugitive with Carla and Danni (Dr. Cox’s sister-in-law, played by Tara Reid) in the season 3 episode ‘My Friend The Doctor’, J.D. notices the real-life Flynn’s character in the train scene. When the Janitor confirms he was in the movie at the end of the episode, some speculated the Janitor’s real name in Scrubs is actually Neil Flynn.
Neil through the first eight seasons he was a series regular with Scrubs. The Scrubs was cancelled by NBC and eventually picked-up by ABC. Neil signed a second position one-year deal for Scrubs season 9. This allowed him to continue on Scrubs if his pilot The Middle was not picked up. The Middle was picked up, although he did guest star in the season 9 premiere of Scrubs.
Neil Flynn The Fugitive
In The Fugitive, he plays a Chicago police officer who is killed by the one-armed man, Frederick Sykes (Andreas Katsulas) while he is fighting Dr. Richard Kimble (Harrison Ford), prompting Chicago Police Department detectives to hunt Ford’s character. This role was used in a subplot of the Scrubs episode “My Friend the Doctor” when J.D. (Zach Braff) notices Flynn’s character in the film and believes that Flynn’s Janitor character is the actor in the film.
Neil Flynn The Middle
Neil’s most popular role as Mike Heck came on ABC’s The Middle (2009-2018). A spin-off for The Middle is being cast around Eden Sher. It is not yet known if he will guest star, have a recurring role, or be part of the main cast. As Mike Heck on The Middle, he had 3 children and worked at the Orson Limestone Quarry. The Heck Family was a middle-class family in Indiana. In 2017, the series celebrated 200 episodes. The Middle has been Flynn’s main show throughout his television career.
