Courtney Cox is still kind of a babe, and JD's five o'clock shadow brings back memories of George Michael in his "Faith" days. Do with that information what you will.
Scrubs Premiere Date and Schedule
Scrubs, finally, has been given its new time slot by ABC. The series was always slated to re-appear sometime in mid-season, but no one knew when. Now, we know. In an official announcement today, ABC has proclaimed that
Scrubs season 8 will premiere on Tuesday, January 6, at 9pm. For two weeks, it will air back-to-back new episodes. After that, it will fall into its regular Tuesday at 9:30pm time slot. It has not been announced what will air in front of
Scrubs, but the Mike Judge comedy
The Goode Family seems the likely companion.
MAJOR SCRUBS SEASON 8 SPOILERS BELOW.!! SERIOUSLY, SCRUBS SPOILERS FROM SEASON 8!!!
Scrubs season 8 will have sixteen episodes, and they have finished filming all of them.
As reported previously,
Scrubs season 8 will contain a wedding in the Bahamas. It's the Janitor's wedding, and he invited 700 people at the last minute to try and get the presents. JD calls his bluff and brings a group to the Bahamas. The episode, which will be one hour, was actually filmed in the Bahamas.
Much of the season will focus on the main characters' relationships with the new interns, who will be played by Aziz Ansari, Eliza Coupe, Betsy Beutler and Lee Thompson Young. It's possible that
Scrubs will have a ninth season in which the interns become the main characters.
Guest stars for
Scrubs season 8 include these actors who have previously appeared on
Scrubs: Elizabeth Banks, Scott Foley, Tom Cavanagh, Amy Smart, and Nicole Sullivan.
Courtney Cox will play the the Chief of Medicine for three episodes. No one will particularly like her.
Scott Foley and Elizabeth Banks' characters will actually be dating, which isn't going to make JD or Elliot all that pleased.
Turk and Carla will be planning to have another child.
And, yes – Elliot and JD will reconnect, and the finale will deal with the two of them.
