Scrubs Reboot Gets ABC Order: Zach Braff, Donald Faison & Sarah Chalke Return
Scrubs is getting its big comeback. Fans have wished for this for years and now it’s official. ABC just gave the green light for a new season, straight to series. That means no pilot, no waiting game. It’s happening.
Zach Braff is back as JD. Donald Faison is in as Turk. And Sarah Chalke is returning as Elliot Reid. The old gang is showing up where it all began — Sacred Heart. Bill Lawrence, the guy who created Scrubs, is running the show again. So it’s not a reboot cooked up by strangers. It’s family.
How Will The New Scrubs Look?
This won’t be just the same old thing, though. Lawrence says he wants a mix. Old faces, yes, but also a new batch of interns. JD and Turk have been out in the medical world for a while. Now they’re scrubbing in together again. The hospital’s changed. Medicine’s changed. The interns are new kids who probably think they know everything. JD and Turk will show them they don’t.
Fans remember the original for the silly cutaways and daydreams. But it also had a real heart. It made people cry as much as it made them laugh. If you grew up on it, you know how it felt. Lawrence says he wants the reboot to keep that. Same vibe, fresh chaos.
Will Old Cast Members Pop Up?
Fans are already asking who else might show up. Judy Reyes played Carla, Sacred Heart’s tough-love nurse. She’s busy on High Potential right now but word is they’re trying to figure out her schedule so she can pop in. Everyone wants Carla back to roll her eyes at JD one more time.
The old writers are part of this too. Tim Hobert and Aseem Batra, who were deep in the original, are running the reboot. So the tone, the jokes, the random weird daydreams — expect all of it to feel like the show you remember.
Scrubs ran from 2001 to 2010. It jumped networks, changed a bit at the end, but fans never really said goodbye. Every cast reunion, every podcast with Braff and Faison, fans asked, “When are you bringing it back?” Now the answer is soon. No official date yet, but midseason is what ABC says.
So Sacred Heart is opening its doors again. JD’s still JD. Turk’s still Turk. Elliot’s still Elliot. There’ll be new interns to mess things up. And if you ever needed a comfort binge, it’s almost time.
