Scrubs Reboot Revival Returns: Cast, New Interns, Season 9 Debate, and What to Expect
Johnny Mac delivers comedy news focused on the Scrubs revival premiering Wednesday at 8:00 PM on ABC (with Hulu next day).
He shares personal enthusiasm for the original series and summarizes details from interviews with Zach Braff and Donald Faison: the revival mixes a young, diverse writers’ room with original writers, and centers on JD and Turk reconnecting at Sacred Heart as medicine and a new generation of interns have evolved while their friendship endures.
Returning cast includes Zach Braff (JD), Donald Faison (Turk), Sarah Chalke (Elliot), Judy Reyes (Carla), John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox), and the Todd!.
Not all characters will appear in every episode due to scheduling.
Ken Jenkins (Dr. Kelso, 85) and Neil Flynn (the Janitor) are not in season one yet, with Braff saying it may depend on a potential second season.
New cast additions include Vanessa Bayer as a wellness/HR figure with a thick file on the Todd, Joel Kim Booster as attending Dr. Eric Park, and interns named Serena, Asher, Blake, Amara, and Deana; additional intern descriptions include Amara (sheltered, homeschooled), Dashana (confident, written like a young Turk), and Tosh (an Instagram-famous influencer doctor).
The episode notes Sam Lloyd’s death (Ted) and that the show will pay tribute by naming a new hangout ‘Lloyd’s Tavern,’ with plans for a tribute episode possibly in season one or season two. M
ac discusses the controversy around season nine (the ‘Med School’ era) and Braff’s preference to frame the new project as a ‘revival’ rather than a reboot, citing Bill Lawrence’s view that season nine should have had a different title.

.....nclude JD returning as a concierge doctor because a patient is admitted to Sacred Heart, Turk as chief of surgery, Elliot as a high-up attending, and Dr. Cox adapting his teaching style to modern wellness rules and workplace norms. The script also revisits contemporary and later reviews of Scrubs, notes criticism about outdated portrayals of women and characters like the Todd, and highlights memorable episodes such as ‘My Screw Up,’ ‘My Last Words,’ ‘My Old Lady,’ ‘My Fallen Idol,’ and the season eight finale originally intended as the series finale.

1
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:11.599
Callaroga Shark Media. Hey there, I'm Johnny Mack with your
2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:16.239
daily comedy news. This Wednesday, Scrubs, the reboot Scrubs is back.
3
00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:18.160
I am so excited. This is one of my favorite
4
00:00:18.199 --> 00:00:21.399
shows of all time. I'm married to a physician and
5
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:24.679
she always found this to be the most realistic medical
6
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.719
show until the Pit came along. You gotta watch the
7
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:28.960
Pit with her. Her eyes are just like she's studying
8
00:00:29.199 --> 00:00:31.760
everything going on in that show. But she was a
9
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:34.920
resident when Jad and Turk were residents, so this really
10
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:38.520
related to her and to me. You know, I would
11
00:00:38.560 --> 00:00:40.320
watch the show and I'd be like, oh, yeah, I
12
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:42.000
know that guy that you work with. That's kind of
13
00:00:42.000 --> 00:00:47.159
doctor Kelso. So Scrubs is back on Wednesday. Zach Braff
14
00:00:47.200 --> 00:00:49.679
told people there's a very young writer's staff along with
15
00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:51.799
some of the brilliant original writers on Scrubs, and I
16
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:53.880
think this young, very diverse group of writers will help
17
00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.399
us crack the case. Donald Faison said, a lot of
18
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.399
the story still holds up. You're still following your favorite doctors,
19
00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:01.759
your heroes. To some people, regardless of what's happened from
20
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.200
season one through nine, the core story is still there
21
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:06.000
and people want to say that we'll have to talk
22
00:01:06.040 --> 00:01:08.480
about season nine at some point in today's episode. In
23
00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.599
the reboot, we see John J. D. Dorian and Christopher
24
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:13.879
Chirk back in their scrubs for the first time in years,
25
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:16.560
as they discover that while medicine and a new generation
26
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:20.040
of insurance has evolved, their romance as stood the test
27
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:23.359
of time. Characters new and old navigate the waters of
28
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:26.920
Sacred Heart with laughter, heart and some surprises along the way.
29
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:30.280
Zach Braff is back as JD. Donald Faison as Turk,
30
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.480
Sarah Chalk back as doctor Elliott Reid, Judy Reyes Yep,
31
00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:38.319
she's back as Carla, and most importantly to me, John C.
32
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:42.599
McGinley is doctor Cox. Even the Todd is back. Did
33
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:44.840
you know the Todd's full name is doctor Todd Quinlan.
34
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:46.959
I don't think I knew that. Now. The bad news
35
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.560
Zach Braff told people not everyone will be in all
36
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:53.400
episodes because of quote unquote scheduling. Yeah, like Judy Rays
37
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:55.799
is on that thing with what's her name? D from
38
00:01:55.840 --> 00:02:01.200
Philadelphia boy, the always sunny and Philadelphia people pictured the actress.
39
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:05.480
As soon as her face showed up in my brain picture,
40
00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:09.080
I thought bird. Her name is Cayln Olsen. Took me
41
00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:10.919
a minute there. I want to say Susan Olsen, but
42
00:02:10.960 --> 00:02:14.400
you know, Susan Olsen is Susan Olsen is Cindy Brady,
43
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:17.280
who's sixty one years old. By the way, just in
44
00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:19.280
case she didn't think any of us are getting any older,
45
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:23.759
I digress. Missing from the cast is Doctor Kelso. Actor
46
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.400
Ken Jenkins is eighty five years old, so both in
47
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.319
terms of the actor Andy character, really would make sense
48
00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:33.360
to have Doctor Kelso around. The janitor played by Neil
49
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:36.759
Flynn is also not in this one. Zach Braff is
50
00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:38.840
not ruling out bringing them back. He said, the true
51
00:02:38.840 --> 00:02:40.680
answer is if we're blessed to have a second season,
52
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.800
you will absolutely And the real answer for season one
53
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:46.879
is we're not fully sure yet. Episodes eight to nine
54
00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:49.240
of the nine episode order we're still being written. When
55
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.159
Zach did this interview in January, but he told Esquire,
56
00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:54.479
do we have the bandwidth in the first nine to
57
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:56.159
get to it all in surface a story that would
58
00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:57.919
be worthy of Ken and Neil that might come up
59
00:02:57.960 --> 00:02:59.400
at this point. I could tell you the answer, but
60
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:01.439
most definitely, if we're lucky enough to get a season two,
61
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:04.759
that's something we want to do. Now there are new characters,
62
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:07.319
and this is where I'm wondering. I can't get a
63
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:11.280
handle on this. Is this the JD. Turk Elliott Show
64
00:03:11.840 --> 00:03:13.919
or are they like kind of sort of in it
65
00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:16.800
and we're following all these new people around. Vanessa Bear
66
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.879
and Joel Kim Booster are notable additions to the cast.
67
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:24.000
Vanessa plays Sibby, who runs a wellness program for faculty
68
00:03:24.000 --> 00:03:27.080
and staff at Sacred Heart Hospital. Joel Kim Booster plays
69
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:30.159
doctor Eric park and attending at Sacred Heart. There are
70
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.159
also a bunch of interns. The character names are Serena,
71
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:37.439
Asher Blake Amara, and Dashauna. One character who won't be
72
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.680
back is Ted Bucklan. Actor Sam Lloyd passed away at
73
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:44.199
age fifty six in twenty twenty after being diagnosed with cancer.
74
00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:47.599
Faison said they do pay tribute to Sam. There'll be
75
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:49.000
a new bar that we all go to when we
76
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:52.479
named it Lloyd's Tavern after actor Sam Lloyd. That was
77
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:54.800
the production designer's idea, which I thought was beautiful. So
78
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:57.039
there's a not to Sam. We love Sam, we miss him.
79
00:03:57.159 --> 00:03:58.560
It's hard to do the show without him. He was
80
00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:01.159
an iconic member of the squad. Plan he's most definitely
81
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:03.199
to have an episode that is tribute to him. Again,
82
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:04.599
I'm not sure we'll be able to do that in
83
00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:07.280
this first nine or that'll be in season two. So
84
00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:10.360
we have to talk about the issue with season nine
85
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:14.120
of the original if you watched it back then, they
86
00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:16.040
had kind of wrapped things up, but then they brought
87
00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:18.519
it back. But when they brought it back, Sacred Heart
88
00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:21.439
had been knocked down, and they were at this new
89
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.480
hospital that was a teaching hospital, and it was just
90
00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:28.959
kind of wonky. Esquire asked Zach Braff, you're not calling
91
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.199
this a reboot or sequel, You're going with revival. Zach said,
92
00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:34.600
there's a distinction revival of meaning you're bringing back the
93
00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:37.079
original people in the original vibe of the show, whereas
94
00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:40.000
a reboot would be sort of rethinking it. Esquire said,
95
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:42.079
the reboot is what they tried with season nine that
96
00:04:42.120 --> 00:04:45.639
was mostly new characters but only lasted thirteen episodes. Zach said, yeah.
97
00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:47.639
Bill Lawrence has said that he wishes that had a
98
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:49.160
different title. Was meant to be a sort of a
99
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:51.040
spin off. Really, he always said he wishes he had
100
00:04:51.040 --> 00:04:53.480
called it Scrubs mid School. It was supposed to be
101
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.360
taking some of the characters and moving them to a
102
00:04:55.360 --> 00:04:57.439
new location. I think that would have made everything clear
103
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:00.279
for the fans. For years now, there's been this feeling
104
00:05:00.319 --> 00:05:03.319
like Season nine doesn't really count, and I get people's
105
00:05:03.399 --> 00:05:04.879
feelings about that. I think it would have been all
106
00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:06.800
a bit easier if they'd called it a reboot slash
107
00:05:06.879 --> 00:05:09.439
spin off. Fazon said, I feel like you can call
108
00:05:09.480 --> 00:05:13.160
it an elseworld or a multiverse type situation. I like
109
00:05:13.199 --> 00:05:15.079
to look at season nine as a multiverse story, like
110
00:05:15.079 --> 00:05:18.360
a different universe. So I guess Sacred Heart has been
111
00:05:18.519 --> 00:05:21.800
un knocked down, or I guess we'll retcon that. Whoever
112
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:25.199
said that was joking when they said it. Don't ask questions,
113
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:28.079
move along, just in enjoy scrubs. Zach Braff said, what
114
00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:31.360
happened when we did the rewatch podcast Fake Doctor's Real Friends.
115
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.560
People saw how similar our friendship really is to JD
116
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:36.680
and Turk. The podcast became really popular. Then we started
117
00:05:36.680 --> 00:05:39.000
doing the T mobile ads, which were again not only
118
00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:41.759
versions of ourselves but also nod to the character. It
119
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:43.959
was that one two punch that finally made ABC Hulu
120
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:46.560
interested in doing a revival. We're all so close, so
121
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:47.800
it's like, do you want to get together with all
122
00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:49.839
these people you love with great scripts and all laugh again.
123
00:05:49.879 --> 00:05:51.800
To us, it was an no brainer. There were so
124
00:05:51.800 --> 00:05:53.959
many things to figure out, getting people on the same counter,
125
00:05:54.079 --> 00:05:56.639
working out Bill's deal because he's under a Warner Brothers contract.
126
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.120
That took literally years. I thought we might do a
127
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:01.199
little mini series kind of thing, like Psych Is Done.
128
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:02.639
I never imagined it was going to be like, Nope,
129
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:04.759
you're back at eight o'clock prime time on ABC with
130
00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:07.160
Hulu the next day. That's shocked all of us. We'll
131
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.639
get a little more spoiler ye here, So if you
132
00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:13.560
don't want to be spoiled for the new season, skip ahead. There.
133
00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:15.839
He was my mentor. At least he couldn't call me
134
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:18.560
Nuby anymore. What can I do for you? There? Oldly,
135
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:22.839
I'm back, baby? Do you know who those people are? You?
136
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:25.279
Maybe try a different approach, maybe a little bit more
137
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:31.160
like doctor Cox. Listen up, newbies, Ruh Hilly, superstart there, Scooter,
138
00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:34.759
leave Bambi alone. It's good to be back. Why are
139
00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:36.680
you standing like that? I don't know. I felt heroic.
140
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:39.480
Here's where everyone is as we come back to Sacred
141
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:42.120
Heart Hospital, Zach Braf says, jd is working as a
142
00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.759
concierge doctor, and he has to come back because even
143
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:46.399
though he lives about an hour away, one of his
144
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.079
patients has been admitted to Sacred Heart. He and Turk
145
00:06:49.079 --> 00:06:51.319
are still great friends. Because of their lives and their schedules,
146
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:53.399
they don't see each other that much. That loss to
147
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:55.560
the deterioration of the friendship has hurt both of them.
148
00:06:55.759 --> 00:06:57.879
Turk is a big family, but neither one of them
149
00:06:57.879 --> 00:06:59.639
really is the community or the friendship that they had
150
00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:02.560
the series, and they really long for it. So when
151
00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:04.959
JD comes back for his patient and is reconnected with
152
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:07.439
doctor Cox, Carlo, the Todd, Turk and Iliot and all
153
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.360
these people, there's this domino effect of everybody experiencing what
154
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:12.399
it's like to all be back together again and then
155
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:15.360
has an impact on all of them. Now that's interesting
156
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:19.079
freezing there that it implies that he hasn't seen Elliott
157
00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:23.000
in a while, so are they no longer together? Fason said,
158
00:07:23.040 --> 00:07:25.439
a lot of the questions about Turk and JD's relationship,
159
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:28.040
I think the relationship between Turk and Carla is still
160
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.360
very interesting. The fans want to know about that. They
161
00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:32.600
want to know about JD and Elliot it's a different time.
162
00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:35.279
Is the todd still appropriate? You know what I mean? Well,
163
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:37.720
it's definitely not appropriate. But can he survive in this world?
164
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:42.519
Morris spoilers Turk is chief of surgery. Elliott is a
165
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:45.079
high up attending physician. We were kids when we made
166
00:07:45.079 --> 00:07:46.839
the original show. When Donald and I started, we were
167
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.240
twenty five and hour fifty as Doctor Cox mellowed out
168
00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:51.839
and Zach says he's coping with the fact that he
169
00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:53.879
can't teach in the same way nowadays. He can't talk
170
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:56.000
to interns like Doctor Cox used to talk to us.
171
00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:58.519
We've been educated that they get breaks and they have
172
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:00.480
a wellness systems in place in their not allowed to
173
00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:02.199
work the hours they used to work. It's a part
174
00:08:02.240 --> 00:08:04.439
of doctor Cox's story has had to be this amazing
175
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:06.839
teacher he was without being able to call people names
176
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:08.600
and without being the tough love guy that he was.
177
00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:12.680
Oh you softies. My inner Doctor Cox is like, what
178
00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:15.600
is this crap? Stop being soft on people. Tough enough
179
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.600
Millennials and gen Z and Alpha's gen X for the wind.
180
00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.079
Doctor Cox is really wrestling with how to operate in
181
00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:24.360
this system. We learned that the Vanessa Bearer character handles
182
00:08:24.519 --> 00:08:26.920
HR complaints. She's got a very thick file on the
183
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:28.879
todd and she also looks out as they do in
184
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:31.519
real hospitals, to make sure the interns aren't being worked
185
00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:35.799
to death. New characters, Braff tells us the surgical interns,
186
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:38.840
or Almara, who's had a very sheltered life. She's very innocent,
187
00:08:38.919 --> 00:08:43.559
super smart, but had a homeschooled existence. Dashauna is very confident.
188
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.120
She's written as if Turk was a young woman, very cocky,
189
00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:48.200
very close with her father. He was her biggest champion.
190
00:08:48.759 --> 00:08:51.000
Faizon said, the way Turk looks at his interns is
191
00:08:51.039 --> 00:08:52.559
I got to teach these guys. They have to be
192
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:54.200
prepared because at the end, when I'm done with this,
193
00:08:54.320 --> 00:08:55.480
these two are going to be the ones that will
194
00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:59.320
continue my legacy here. And then there's the Instagram famous
195
00:08:59.480 --> 00:09:03.120
wanna be. That character is Tosh, who's not only a
196
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.639
skilled doctor, but an influencer. There's a handful of these
197
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:08.159
people in the real world. They go through the intern
198
00:09:08.200 --> 00:09:10.440
process and commented on social media, a lot of med
199
00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:13.000
students and interns want to follow their experience. It isn't
200
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:16.159
something that's overdone. My inner doctor Cox is coming out.
201
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:18.200
She's not only on her phone and posting. But it's
202
00:09:18.200 --> 00:09:20.519
an element of her character that, while going through her training,
203
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:25.559
is also actively posting. October two, two thousand and one,
204
00:09:25.759 --> 00:09:30.879
Howard Rosenberg in The La Times reviewed Scrubs. Howard wrote,
205
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.519
Scrubs ranges from silliness to wonderful silliness. As Primetime's first
206
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:38.399
medical comedy that generates big laughs. Was mister Rosenberg unfamiliar
207
00:09:38.399 --> 00:09:42.519
with a show called Mash I Digress. Although the humor
208
00:09:42.519 --> 00:09:44.320
begins broadly, it grows on you as you adjust to
209
00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:46.799
its rhythms, and ultimately you hear yourself laughing out loud.
210
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:50.639
This is easily NBC's best news series. It's a nice moment.
211
00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.080
It's also one of those distinctive comedies in which everything meshes.
212
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:57.519
Entertainment Weekly October sixteenth, that same year wrote Scrubs as
213
00:09:57.559 --> 00:09:59.879
a TV rarity, a new sitcom with an original look,
214
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:03.000
point of view, and the merciful absence of a familiar
215
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:06.799
star attempting a comeback. Scrubs is er as a comedy
216
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:11.080
mash in peace time with newbie interns. Good description. Our
217
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:14.559
hero is JD. Dorian played by Zach Braff, who looks
218
00:10:14.639 --> 00:10:17.840
like this is great, a youthful cross between Ray Romano
219
00:10:17.879 --> 00:10:21.159
and Ed's Tom Cavanaugh, which is fascinating because later in
220
00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.960
the series they cast Tom Cavanaugh as j D's brother.
221
00:10:25.200 --> 00:10:27.879
In the show's most original move, Scrubs One True good
222
00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.440
Man is also its loosest canon. John C McGinley is
223
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.960
giving a career making performance as the flinty, sarcastic Doctor Cox,
224
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:36.960
an experienced doctor who is on the surface everything we
225
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:38.919
fear In a healer, we might come into contact with
226
00:10:38.960 --> 00:10:41.000
a bully with cold eyes, a short temper, and a
227
00:10:41.000 --> 00:10:44.240
black sense of humor. But just as mashes Hawkeye, Peers
228
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:47.480
made jaundice puns about jaundice because war inspired cynicism as
229
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:51.480
a defense mechanism, Doctor Cox staves off j D's petrified
230
00:10:51.480 --> 00:10:54.639
stairs with a suck it up attitude. J D and
231
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:57.639
Elliott desperately want doctor Cox to mentor them, and Cox
232
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:02.399
resist the role. From twenty eighteen, Jimmie Sargent on Medium wondered,
233
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:05.919
it's been ten years since the original series of Scrubs aired.
234
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:10.200
Does Scrubs hold up? In twenty eighteen, we're told the
235
00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:12.320
show has an outdated view on women, especially in the
236
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:16.000
first season. In one episode, we see doctor Kelso slapping
237
00:11:16.039 --> 00:11:19.919
women's butts and being leary towards them. Yeah, that was
238
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:23.200
the joke. He had an outdated view on women. That
