Throughout its original run, Scrubs regularly introduced new, younger doctors as the main characters gained experience at Sacred Heart. Season 9 attempted this, but it was widely criticized. Those episodes focused too much on the new interns and sidelined the original cast. The Scrubs revival has avoided that pitfall, while still successfully adding new characters. The first three episodes of the revival were strong, showing these young doctors navigating the start of their careers alongside JD and the familiar cast dealing with their own challenges. However, the show now feels overcrowded in the episode “My Poker Face.”
