[NEWS] 'Scrubs' reboot gets series order, two more original cast return

    'Scrubs' Reboot Gets Series Order at ABC;
    Zach Braff, Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke to Return
    ----------------------------------------------------
    "Scrubs" is officially scrubbing back in at ABC. Variety has
    learned that the planned reboot of the beloved hospital comedy
    has been ordered straight-to-series at the broadcaster for the
    2025-2026 season.
    As previously reported, original series star Zach Braff is
    already onboard with the new show. Now, he will be joined by
    fellow original cast members Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke.
    According to sources, more original cast members are expected
    to return.
    "'Scrubs' means so very much to me. So excited for the chance
    to get the band back together," said original series creator
    Bill Lawrence.
    The official logline for the new "Scrubs" states, "JD (Braff)
    & Turk (Faison) scrub in together for the first time in a
    long time- medicine has changed, interns have changed, but
    their bromance has stood the test of time. Characters new and
    old navigate the waters of Sacred Heart with laughter, heart
    and some surprises along the way."
    Fellow "Scrubs" alums Tim Hobert and Aseem Batra will serve
    as executive producers and showrunners on the revival of the
    series, with Lawrence executive producing via Doozer along
    with Jeff Ingold and Liza Katzer. Braff, Faison, and Chalke
    are also executive producing in addition to starring.
    20th Television is the studio. Lawrence remains under his
    overall deal at Warner Bros. Television, with that studio
    carving out room for Lawrence to work with his former studio
    partners on "Scrubs."
    Braff is repped by CAA, Range Media Partners, and attorney Ken
    Richman. Faison is repped by UTA and Fuller Law. Chalke is
    repped by UTA, Untitled, and JSSK.
    The new "Scrubs" was first reported to be in early development
    in December 2024, while Braff's return was first reported in
    May. The show originally aired on NBC for its first seven
    seasons from 2001-2008, followed by two seasons at ABC from
    2009-2010. The single-cam comedy took place at Sacred Heart
    Hospital and followed the interns, doctors, nurses, and the
    Janitor through their day-to-day lives at the hospital. Along
    with Braff, Faison, and Braff, the cast included Judy Reyes,
    Ken Jenkins, John C. McGinley, and Neil Flynn.
    Prior to the pickup, ABC had only two pure comedies on its
    schedule for 2025-2026 - returning shows "Abbot Elementary"
    and "Shifting Gears." The network also ordered the spinoff
    "9-1-1: Nashville" straight-to-series earlier this year. ABC
    did not order any pilots during the traditional pilot season
    this year, but is currently prepping the drama "RJ Decker"
    starring Scott Speedman.
