An engaging (and periodically serious) look at hospital work through the eyes of a young intern, coping with unusual challenges presented by colleagues as well as patients. The show is a smart mix of humor and social commentary, and has had a diverse lineup of guest stars, including Colin Hay of Men at Work, Brendan Fraser, Dick Van Dyke and, in one of his rare TV appearances since he left full-time work because of Parkinson's disease, Michael J. Fox.
  • Zach Braff Leaving Scrubs | Today's News: Our Take | 7/16/2008
    Zach Braff will be leaving Scrubs at the end of this season. "Not by his choice," joked executive producer Bill Lawrence. That's the big, though perhaps not-too-surprising news to come out of ABC's panel Wednesday.As a result, the jocular conversation, led by head jester Lawrence, steered toward envisioning a post-J.D. Sacred Heart world. "Isn't Turk without J.D. a bit like Joanie without Chachi?" one snarky reporter asked. "It's like Chachi without Joanie actually," corrected Donald Faison (Turk himself!). Lawrence admitted that he had always pitched Scrubs as ER as a comedy, with a revolving cast of characters that would allow for new blood from time to time. The show has already introduced us to a new set of younger interns. "We cried when [Lawrence] said he was bringing in younger actors," said Sarah Chalke. To which the always-complimentary Lawrence shot back: "Why don't you take a gander at the opening credits [which date from the show's first season] and see how young you... read more
  • Ready for Scrubs: The Next Generation? | Today's News: Our Take | 7/16/2008
    Now that Scrubs has moved to ABC, do they have any plans to change the show at all?Well, not right away. Steve McPherson, president of ABC Entertainment, confirmed that J.D. and the gang will look and perform pretty much the same as they always have for this coming season. After that, McPherson says he'll have to talk to star Zach Braff and exec producer Bill Lawrence, but that he's open to the idea of rebooting the series with a new, perhaps younger cast, a la ER. (There's a Scrubs panel in a few hours, so stay tuned for more...)What do you think? Is Scrubs’ success in its casting, or can you imagine a younger cast taking over for the Sacred Heart crew? Who would you cast as the new interns? Amanda Bynes and Frankie Muniz, call your agents! — Mickey O'Connor read more
  • Courteney Cox Makes Friends with Scrubs | Today's News: Our Take | 7/10/2008

Courteney Cox is joining the cast of NBC's ABC's Scrubs for a three-episode arc this coming midseason, playing Sacred Heart's new Chief of Medicine.As reported by EW's Ausiello, Cox's character will "ruffle feathers" in her capacity as Kelso's replacement. — Matt Mitovich read more
  • Exclusive: Scrubs Gets New Blood Transfusion | Ausiello Report | 5/15/2008
    Dr. Cox is going to have three new souls to torture when Scrubs moves to ABC next season. Sources confirm to me exclusively that Betsy Beutler (The Black Donnellys), Eliza Coupe (HBO's 12 Miles of Bad Road) and Aziz Ansari (MTV's Human Giant) are joining the cast as Sacred Heart's newest interns. The trio will appear on a recurring basis.The injection of new blood is part of an ambitious plan to return the show to its more drama-filled roots. To read about the other changes in store, check out my fresh Q&A with series creator Bill Lawrence (aka Da Man). read more
  • Scrubs Boss Blasts NBC, Previews "Serious" Changes | Ausiello Report | 5/14/2008
    One of the many reasons I love Bill Lawrence is that the dude doesn't mince words. At a time when sound-bites have become as carefully crafted as a Martha Stewart petit four, Bill continues to tell it like it is. And on the heels of the official confirmation that Scrubs is headed to ABC for an 18-episode final season, he has a lot to tell. About the show's network-hop. About the beef he has with the suits at NBC. And about the somewhat radical changes in store for J.D. and Co. Why'd it take so long to announce this thing?Bill Lawrence: As I understand it, it was legally very important not to say anything officially until after the show had finished its run on NBC. What led to the break-up with NBC?Lawrence: When the strike ended, we told NBC that, even though we had another seven episodes mapped out, we could do it in three, and they just didn't have any interest. Total harsh buzz of not giving a s--t about a show that had been on the network for seven years and made them millions... read more
