Scrubs Moves From Hospital to Classroom
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, ABC, Scrubs, Renewals,
Last year, Scrubs was facing change on a new network. This winter, the series will get new backdrop.
For the comedy’s ninth season, the program will freshen up with an entirely new focus. The day-to-day operations within Sacred Heart will be (mostly) replaced with classrooms and teachers. That’s right, Scrubs is going back to medical school.
“It’ll be a lot like Paper Chase as a comedy,” creator Bill Lawrence told Entertainment Weekly. “It’s going to be a different show. It’ll still be life-and-death stakes, but if the show is just Scrubs again in the hospital with a different person’s voiceover, it would be a disaster and people would be mad.”
Although there were will be a list of new cast members, two vets will anchor the show. John C. McGinley and Donald Faison will both appear as med school professors. Meanwhile, other favorites - including Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes and Ken Jenkins - are slated to make guest appearances. The hospital will also be seen from time to time.
No premiere date has yet been announced for the midseason show.

My Top Five: Ugly (Yet Funny) Men

Last night I stumbled upon an episode of the Power of Ten and found myself sucked in by the thought-provoking topics. For those who have not seen the CBS game show yet, the concept is fairly simple. The contestants have to guess (within a certain range) how a sampling of Americans answered a particular question. For example: “What percentage of Americans think Elvis is still really alive?”
Okay, I actually made that last example up. But one real question from last night had me thinking: “What percentage of women said that they would date an ugly guy because they found him funny?” (Or something like that). Unfortunately, I don’t remember the actual answer because my mind started trailing off. I quietly wondered:
‘Which ‘ugly’ actors could I see dating simply because they made me laugh?’

Sarah Chalke, who plays hyperactive Dr. Elliot Reid on Scrubs is engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Jamie Afifi. Afifi proposed to Chalke last week while on vacation in Hawaii. Chalke, 30, could potentially be facing her last season on Scrubs. There has been a lot of speculation that the series will come to an end after this season, although there has not been any final confirmation of that. Afifi, 33, is an entertainment lawyer. Chalke recently won rave reviews for her role in the Lifetime movie, Why I Wore Lipstick to My Mastectomy and will next be seen on the big screen in Mama’s Boy, starring Diane Keaton and Jon Heder.
Chalke follows closely on co-star John C. McGinley’s engagement news. McGinley got engaged in August. Who’s next? Zach Braff, we’re lookin’ at you!
