Scrubs reboot in the works with original creator

by

As a gamer with a heart for nostalgia and a deep love for the quirky humor of Scrubs, this news about a potential reboot has me buzzing like an excited bee in a honey jar! The original series was not just another hospital comedy; it was a brilliant blend of laughter, heart, and insight that kept me hooked from the first episode to the last.

A Scrubs reboot is reportedly in the works, with original creator Bill Lawrence at the helm.

According to Variety, Lawrence is working on a new iteration of the hit series for ABC.

On the other hand, the report indicates that he won’t take up the role of showrunner if the project is commissioned for a series, and currently, no agreements have been finalized.

For nine seasons from 2001 to 2010, the initial show focused on a team consisting of doctors, nurses, and various hospital personnel, depicting how they juggled their personal and work lives at Sacred Heart Hospital.

The main cast consisted of Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, John C. McGinley, Neil Flynn, and Ken Jenkins.

If the cast hasn’t been confirmed for the reboot yet, Braff mentioned earlier that the original series’ actors might participate in a comeback, assuming Lawrence was the lead.

In 2022, he stated that everyone has an interest in creating something, be it a film or a mini-series, but what we can’t seem to do without the mastermind behind Scrubs, Bill Lawrence.

Given that the situation was ideal, I’m certain every cast member would be thrilled to reunite and perform again, somehow or another.

Toward the end of that very year, enthusiasts of the show “Scrubs” experienced a surge of anticipation as the cast, along with Lawrence, declared onstage their readiness to produce a reunion film or an equivalent project.

In March 2023, Lawrence provided an unsatisfactory update, explaining that progress on the project was delayed because the actors were too occupied with their individual schedules to move forward.

He praised both the actors and writers of that particular series highly, stating that they were all actively involved in their work, even if he did hint at a possible reunion for “Scrubs” being unavoidable.

Could this new reboot be the reunion fans have been waiting for?

Scrubs is available to watch on Disney+.
