"He has two children, one son, Harrison, a gay heavy metal fan and another child who is his secret love-child 'Kwong Tri Kelso', presumably the product of his love of Oriental prostitutes."

Can Kwong Tri really be called a "secret" love child considering he's mentioned it several times?Crimson Shadow 01:48, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

It's a secret, in the sense that his wife doesn't know about it.

Is it? I remember him saying that he had the son while in Vietnam. Was he already married to Enid at this point?Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 04:03, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

There are numerous comical and topical references to Kelso's son, Harrison. Why not create either a seperate entry for him, list him under the "minor characters" entry, or create a new heading in the Kelso article? 196.2.56.5 07:17, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Harrison is listed as an unseen character, but in one episode (I can't remember which, but I'll revise this as soon as I find out; I think it's in season five), he holds up a picture of him with his boyfriend in which they are dressed as Tonto and the Lone Ranger (apparently their "jammies"), and I remember them both being clearly visible.

The episode in mention was "My New Suit," and after looking again, it appears he wasn't visible. However, I do remember one episode where this photo (or a similar one) was shown, and he was visible. If somebody could look into this, I'd appreciate it. HoCkEy PUCK 23:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

In one episode, the character of "Bob Kelso" says something along the lines of "If that isn't true, my name isn't Robert Kelsonowich". Just a point I feel should be addressed.

Yeah he also refers to his grandfather (who was also a doctor) in this way. Perhaps Kelso is just an anglicized version of his real name?68.160.229.200 08:02, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

If I'm not mistaken, Dr. Kelso makes frequent reference throughout the series to his dog Baxter. Although Baxter is a minor character at best, he is mentioned at least as much as Kelso's son and also makes an appearance on the show once or twice. Just food for thought. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.112.218.79 (talk) 01:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC).

He even gets Ted's office :) WookMuff 00:59, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

I am guessing there is no place in this article for his 10inch penis? (my lucky night) 60.240.41.159 06:45, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

Something I've noticed about him that I think should go under "peculiarities" is that his lines often start with "I'm going to tell you the same thing I told <<some person>>..." I don't know if it's enough to even merit being in the article, though, or if it's all in my head. 0_o 68.80.164.108 08:09, 10 April 2007 (UTC)Miikun

Why does this article claim that there is a math error? Kelso was born in 1947 and graduated in '68. Big deal! I'll graduate when I'm 21; it's really not that uncommon.128.101.201.108 02:19, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

He was born in 42, not 47. 24.144.212.130 (talk) 09:47, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

I bring this up because in one of the episodes when he is talking to Dr. Cox he says "oh for the love of moses" or a derivative of that phrase would make him likely be Jewish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.14.180 (talk) 20:00, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Which episode and when? Could you have misheard? We can't really base a religion on 1 thing he said anyway, and it would be OR. mattbuck 20:03, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Not necessarily, because Christians learn about Moses too, or it could just be a phrase he likes to use. Anyway, even if he is Jewish, this isn't enough evidence to put that he is in the article, that would be original research, since there are no other instances where he suggests he is Jewish--Jac16888 20:05, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

Robert Kelsonowich, mentioned above. At least, it sounds vaguely Jewish.Not even Mr. Lister's Koromon survived intact. 04:05, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

In Episode 9 of Season 8, Turk reveals that he is having a second child to Cox, Ted, and Kelso. Cox, unimpressed, mentions that he and Jordan barely told anyone about their second baby. Kelso responds "Mazel Tov, to you both." Josh.barrientes (talk) 03:32, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Kelso was secretly hoping he wouldn't have to give Carla a lift to the hospital. But what was he going to do? Tell her no? She was right there, plus she's Carla Espanoza and thus, scary when mad. Lots42 02:38, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

he tried to hide behind his dashboard so she wouldn't see him.--Jac16888 20:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Uhm, I was a little confused and to be honest annoyed to find out that this page contained spoilers about what's going to happen in *future* episodes of S8 of Scrubs. Shouldn't those be marked in some way? I'm not really familiar with how this is handled on Wikipedia, so any insight would be welcome.

89.56.4.52 (talk) 13:54, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

WP: Spoiler should help. But in short, expect spoilers. For example, the article for The Sixth Sense -will- tell you what the twist is with no warning. Lots42 (talk) 15:36, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Should it be mentioned that Dr. Kelso plays the guitar and wrote a song about his wife? In the episode "My Tuscaloosa Heart," he is revealed to have played it in college. Although he denies it when Turk and Elliot ask him, at the end of the episode he is sitting in his office playing the guitar and singing the song heard on the tape. -Ganon —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.212.24.44 (talk) 23:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

A good example for the early Kelso-Cox-relation is My Rule of Thumb (2004). Hodsha (talk) 21:26, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
