I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for the new seasons of Will Trent and The Rookie. And today, ABC finally announced when those shows and a few others will be back.
The big news is that American Idol is starting earlier in the year, will only air one night, and the contestants are not going to Hollywood for the second part of televised auditions. Instead, they are going to Nashville for one round.
Do I smell a 9-1-1: Nashville/American Idol crossover episode in the works? I wouldn’t be surprised if that is in the works.
And talking about in the works, Scrubs is no longer in that stage and returns to ABC, after a 15-year break, on February 25th with back-to-back episodes.
For years, fans have been wanting Scrubs to check back in with new episodes, and ABC said they are finally making that happen. However, I never believe it is happening until it happens.
Today, it was confirmed that it is happening because Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, John C. McGinley, and producer Bill Lawrence showed up for their first table read for the sequel!
Looking at them in this photo, it is hard to believe it has been 15 years since their show ended because they look just as close and like they have not aged a day since the series finale!
Before Zach Braff was dating Sarah Chalke on Scrubs, he was the woman in the relationship in My Summer as a Girl. How pretty was the 19-year-old in that 1994 telemovie?
Scrubs aired on NBC for seven seasons, but then they cancelled it. ABC picked it up for an eighth season, but only aired it for two more seasons. Now, 15 years later, ABC wants it back, so they ordered a sequel.
Zach Braff, Donald Faison, and Sarah Chalke have all signed on to be part of it. Variety reports that more of the original cast is expected to return.
Season 10 finds JD (Braff) and Turk (Faison) scrubbing in together for the first time in a long time- medicine has changed, interns have changed, but their bromance has stood the test of time. Characters new and old navigate the waters of Sacred Heart with laughter, heart, and some surprises along the way.
Series creator Bill Lawrence said, “Scrubs means so very much to me. So excited for the chance to get the band back together.“
Fans have been asking for the sitcom to return for a while, and now they are getting it. So they better watch when Scrubs joins ABC’s lineup later this television season.
So, I am a huge fan of the late Irene Cara. Therefore, when I heard Zach Braff and Donald Faison singing Flashdance…What a Feeling with different lyrics in a commercial for T-Mobile; I was like, what the fuck is going on? Does her estate really need the money that badly?
However, then things took a turn. Jason Momoa started singing and dancing with them. And now I want Aquaman to do a musical. Braff’s light grey sweatshirt slipped off her shoulder like it did in the movie poster. And finally, Jennifer Beals, who starred in the film, made an appearance.
And now, I need a bucket of water to fall on me and cool me down because I feel like a Maniac.
