Ah Scrubs – we all thought it had breathed its last breath when NBC cancelled it, so we were all extremely relieved when the show’s original owners, ABC, performed a dramatic piece of telly resuscitation and promised one final series.
The eighth and final run promises many, many things – the return of almost every major guest star who ever appeared in the show’s history, some closure on the seemingly interminable ‘will they or won’t they?’ JD and Eliot issue, and the arrival of the always stunning Courteney Cox as the highly unethical Dr Maddox.
The show has begun already in the US but, as usual, we’re patiently sitting in the waiting room, hoping the docs will see us soon. Thankfully we’re not stuck flicking through an old copy of the Readers’ Digest in the meantime – here’s an excellent interview with the show’s creator, Bill Lawrence, with the lowdown on the battle with NBC, how the series will pan out, and what other projects he has in the pipeline. Now where’s my Lucozade?
Oh, one other little treat – here’s a compilation of some of Scrubs’ funniest ever guest star moments… Go on, it’s Friday!
