It’s lastly taking place! A Scrubs reboot is going on at ABC with Invoice Lawrence reaching out to authentic solid members to return
Are we heading for a Chocolate Bear and Vanilla Bear reunion? It’s attainable now {that a} Scrubs reboot is in growth at ABC, with sequence creator/govt producer Invoice Lawrence returning to the O.R. The promising replace about Lawrence’s Scrubs reboot comes after prolonged negotiations with Warner Bros. TV, the place Lawrence has an total deal and 4 sequence. After sorting all the small print, Lawrence can develop a follow-up sequence for Disney’s twentieth TV and ABC. Whereas Lawrence is on board for the reboot, he won’t be the present’s showrunner.
After securing Lawrence for the in-demand undertaking, the problem of assembling authentic solid members from the unique sequence can start. In accordance with Deadline, Zach Braff, who performs John “J.D.” Dorian, Sarah Chalke (Elliot Reid), Donald Faison (Christopher Turk), and John C. McGinley (Perry Cox) may return for extra comedic hospital drama shenanigans. Absent from the checklist is Judy Reyes, who performs the straight-shooting nurse Carla Espinosa within the authentic sequence. Reyes left the sequence earlier than its last season, although sources say her character components into early episodes of the reboot. Reyes is a sequence common on ABC and twentieth TV’s common new drama sequence Excessive Potential, so the jury on her involvement stays out.
“Big chunks of the creative team behind the camera, and most of it from in front of the camera, are all super invested and excited,” Lawrence advised Deadline in October. Lawrence says he plans for the brand new present to be a hybrid between a revival and a reboot. He needs to revisit outdated characters but in addition introduce new ones.
“We’ve been talking about a lot, and I think the only real reason to do it is a combo,” Lawrence mentioned in October. “A: people wanting to see what the world of medicine was like for the people they love, which is part of any successful reboot. But B: I think that show always worked because you get to see young people dropped into the world of medicine, knowing young people that go there are super idealistic and are doing it because it’s a calling. There’s no cliché ‘rich doctors playing golf’ — that’s not what it is anymore. So I think that, no matter what it is, it would be a giant mistake not to do as a combo of those two things.”
Scrubs followers have been asking for a revival of the beloved medical sitcom for years, however they’ve but to see their calls for met. Fortunately, it feels like desires are about to return true. Surprise Twin’s powers of Chocolate Bear and Vanilla Bear activate!
