The ‘Scrubs’ Revival’s Reworked Timeline Boils Down to One Vital Event

Season 9 of Scrubs moved the action to a new Sacred Heart hospital and centered the show around a fresh group of interns. While the original cast still appeared, their roles were smaller to make room for Dr. Lucy Bennett and the other new doctors. The change of location – the demolition of the original Sacred Heart – significantly altered the feel of Med School and ultimately contributed to the show’s cancellation. The revival series hasn’t explicitly explained why the original hospital was torn down and replaced, or why the new one has remained standing throughout the new episodes. However, an explanation is available if you pay attention to the visual details.
