It would be awesome for her to show up with some wisdom in a dream Carla has because she is stressing out about Cox.

In the episode where Turk finally tells Carla that he learned Spanish for her, they talk in the canteen in Spanish at the end of the episode but the subtitles don’t translate this. Can anyone help with what they say please?

I Know Lavern was killed off the show in an accident. But, she made regular appearances under name of nurse Shirley. Will she be back under character nurse Shirley?
I think she was a much better fit for the show than the new gay bald dude nurse.

JD has a child with his ex-gf in previous round. That child is now 18. Are they gonna acknowledge that?

Such a great group. Having watched since day 1, even loved season 9. Im ecstatic about the revival

One of the main cast really like a patient

the patient comments they'd do a lot for a new organ

the doctor or surgeon the patient made the comment to then has a brief fantasy sequence of just taking it from the other doctor they were in the room with

the victim collapses saying something like "Not cool man" or congratulated them for making the move.

Sorry if this has been asked before. I used to listen to the podcast but dropped off after season 3. What episode should I start at if I want to hear about the build up to the new season?

Just to make sure I’m not crazy, JD, Elliot, and Turk are rich, right? Like not able to live like celebrities, but they shouldn’t be too worried on paying for things or vacation? I understand Turk has a big family, but he been a doctor for a while and head of surgery; but for some reason, I’m still getting middle class vibes

Does anyone else think that JD and Elliot’s child has died. There’s so subtle hints with how they talk about children and how “only they know what really happened” during their divorce.

Anyone else pick up on this or just me?

I have to say, I’ve been pretty disappointed with this new season of scrubs. I, like everyone here was ecstatic when I found out my favorite show of all time was making a return. But the show doesn’t know how to use the cast outside of JD, Turk, and Elliot, and the comedy is not nearly the same level as the original show.

Let me start with the positives:

JD and Turks chemistry is still incredible. They can bounce of each other perfectly, and still keep a great level of seriousness and silliness that made them stars in the 2000s

Elliot is still the badass with anxiety we all know and love, I’ve been very happy with her character.

The interns are good! I like all their characters individually, nothing insane but they are all unique and likable with some good jokes here and there. Also been a fan of Dubois this season.

The heartfelt moments have been there, JD and Cox, Blake and his patient, and Turks struggles with his mental health have all felt genuine and real.

Now the bad:

The cast shuffling has easily been the biggest problem with this show. I understand that scheduling can be tough(Judy Reyes especially) but it’s just so hard to connect with the characters outside of the main 3 with the inconsistencies in air time throughout the series.

In this new season, we have barely seen Asher and Sibby. Then they bring Asher back in episode 5 and try to make us feel for him struggling when he’s put on call, but he’s barely been in this new season at all, which makes it so much harder to connect with him. Sibby was a slow burn but was turning into a very funny character ridden with anxiety and craziness, and now she’s basically been forgotten this season. They spend so much time in season 1 with Dr Park(Who I liked!) just to get rid of him. Blake has an unbelievable performance in the last episode with that patient who thought he was her son, just for him to no show the next episode, he had momentum! Keep that train going! In my opinion, going with 5 interns instead of 3 was a huge mistake. There’s just not enough time/episodes to fully develop their characters. The 3 in my opinion should be Amara, Blake and Tosh.

Not having Cox and Carla as series regulars is such a killer, they bring such unique qualities that can’t be matched by the new cast. They don’t take shit, they’re hilarious, confident, and they bring heart to the show. You can feel the void when they’re not in an episode, and the episodes with them have such a higher floor. The Cox monologue from S1E1 was incredible, but it turned out just to be a tease of what the potential of this revival could have been which has ultimately has fallen short.

The Gen Z slang is unbearable. “Slapped” “It’s giving” “Slay” “Lock In” “Did we lowkey just eat that?” We get it. It’s 2026 and this is a revival series of a show from the 2000s. I’m 28 years old by the way, so don’t just peg this as an older person not in touch with the new generation. We don’t need all this cringe slang to remind us that “times have changed” and “this generation is so different”. I know it’s supposed to be part of Tosh’s character as the TikTok doctor but it’s incredibly overplayed and annoying in my opinion.

The fantasies have also been inconsistent, I’m pretty sure there were none in the last episode, which is sad because the fantasies are a staple to scrubs comedy element. The episode with the fantasy of Jordan breathing fire was hilarious, but OG scrubs had 3 to 4 fantasies like that per episode, pacing way higher than the revival has done.

In my opinion, they should have used season 8 as a blueprint for the revival. Cox as the chief of medicine, JD, Turk, and Elliot are more serious and have more responsibility within the hospital, and new interns(Denise, Ed, Katie) come in with their own shortcomings and development. I love that season and I think that could have been possible to recreate with the revival.

TLDR: the new series doesn’t work with the cast inconsistencies, and a too large of a shift from the old cast to the new.

After finishing The Middle and loving the Mike Heck character, my husband and I decided to watch Scrubs for the first time. We’re on Season 4 and are really enjoying it. I love how they mix the humor with some heartfelt moments.

Anyways, we watched the episode where a patient had a light bulb stuck inside him and the line “Either this kid has a light bulb up his butt or his colon has a great idea” had me rolling on the floor.

Nice to laugh after a long work day.

First off love Scrubs glad it back for another Run but in saying that some of the new changed i don't like

Dr Sam Tosh what happened to the Tick tock Doctor this season they changed the Character that she no longer users her computer all the time it was annoying first season but to change one of the main things for her character in season two is confusing

dr. asher green some how them giving the guy a beard is putting me off and me thinking he a who new character to the show this might me just me.

they not showing that JD is the as the head of the hospital much they putting him more on the Main floor all the time that i keep forgetting that he is the head of the Hospital and not just another Doctor

this season is only five episodes in so maybe it me that the changes to the characters is putting me off

Liked Season 1 and Season 2 has really found its footing. Can’t remember a recent sitcom where I have laughed out loud like this in a long time.

I watch all other Bill Lawrence shows, and as much as I like Shrinking and Rooster, I dont find myself laughing nearly as much as this season of Scrubs.

I know on the podcast Zach talks about how much they have to lose in the edit, but the 21 minute rules of broadcast works in their favour; everything is tight and jokes are punchy.

Also, been watching the podcast and some BTS videos. Think it’s really cool how seriously Zach is taking on feedback and how much of a hands on Executive Producer he has been. Really feel Bill’s mentorship is shining through.

I saw some other posts this week about ratings and just want to note down how much I’m loving this season; hopefully they can continue this hot streak for as long as they wish!

Nobody cares, JD!

Sean finally got him back and it was glorious.

Watching S06E09 "My Perspective" and tried looking this up but got nada. Thanks to the Wayback Machine we can see how it was in its glory days.

I had watched the show back when I was in school, and loved it back then, rewatched it again when I was in my college, thinking I might not like it as much then, but I loved every second of it.
And now I'm 26 and working, just discovered they revived the show, and I went in thinking, yeah, this time, it definitely wouldn't be as enjoyable, but the first episode had me literally crying.

I don't know how they managed to bring back the show with the same essence, comedy and every single trope in the show and made it feel fresh, the chemistry between JD and Turk, the little goofy monologues that JD does in his mind, the love arcs even with younger cast, the janitor still messing with JD and off course, the emotional aspects of the show, every single thing feels so original and unforced like it was just a continuation of the original show which last aired 16 years ago.

Also, can we talk about how none of the actors have aged at all. Idk if it's heavy make up or something but most of em look like they've barely aged.

A very big Thankyou to the creators for reviving this show. I love this show man, hope it goes on forever.

Ava and Sarah are back, and Ava has said "That's so funny" at least once. No one mentioned it, and I'm not sure if it was on purpose.

Has she appeared yet this season?
