The lovable crew of ABC\u2019s hit series Scrubs<\/a> will be reuniting for a long-awaited reboot series<\/a>, and fans can\u2019t wait to see some of their favorites return to the screen. Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, and John C. McGinley will all be returning<\/a> for the revival, but no one knew when exactly the cast would actually be hitting screens. Now that\u2019s finally been revealed, and while it\u2019s great to have a premiere date, fans are going to have to wait a while to actually see it.<\/p>\n

ABC has revealed its upcoming schedule, and it turns out that Scrubs will be making its debut as part of 2026\u2019s midseason lineup (via Variety<\/a>). The reboot will premiere on ABC on February 25th at 8 PM EST, and it will debut with two episodes back-to-back, so while it\u2019s great that two episodes are hitting at the same time, it is going to be a bit of a wait before fans can actually watch them. Those who miss the initial airing will be able to catch the premiere episodes on Hulu the next day as well.<\/p>\n

The other major aspect of the reboot is the return of series creator Bill Lawrence, who previously teased a bit of what fans can expect from the show\u2019s revival and what it would tackle as far as the characters themselves and the world of medicine that the group works in.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve been talking about a lot, and I think the only real reason to do it is a combo,\u201d Lawrence told Deadline. \u201cA: 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\u2019s a calling. There\u2019s no clich\u00e9 \u2018rich doctors playing golf\u2019 \u2014 that\u2019s 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

The original Scrubs ended its run in 2010 with season 9, though the true finale is often regarded as episode 18 of season 8, which is titled My Finale. That was actually J.D.\u2019s final day at Sacred Heart Hospital, but he would return for guest appearances throughout season 9 as the focus shifted to a new set of characters.<\/p>\n

While that season wasn\u2019t what many fans were expecting<\/a>, there were still some well-liked characters and concepts, and Lawrence revealed previously that those characters and the world they sort of created there all still exist, even if we aren\u2019t going to be focused on them primarily. Hopefully, we\u2019ll get a full trailer for the Scrubs reboot soon, but go ahead and mark your calendars for February now.<\/p>\n
