SCRUBS Creator Bill Lawrence Wants to Revive Comedy Series: ‘We’re Definitely Going to Do It’

Shirts Creator Bill Lawrence is interested in reviving the classic medical comedy series and would like to tell the story of the last two years.

During an interview with LADBible, Lawrence was asked about the possibility of bringing back Scrubs, and he said, “I’m very open about it. We definitely would, just because we all had a great time hanging out together.”

While there’s “no big push” for that to happen at the moment, he’s very keen to return to acting in that world, saying, “I’m open to that possibility, and I don’t want to turn it into a movie, but I’m definitely open to doing another couple of years of that show.”

He went on to tease his ideas for a revival, saying, “It would be fun to not only see where the characters that I loved are now, but also to see what a young doctor looks like nowadays, as far as the kids that follow him, you know.”

As for when this Scrubs revival might happen, that’s something they might find out soon, he added: “So we’ve talked about it a lot, and I think in the next six months or so we’ll figure out what we want to do.”

This is not the first time that there has been talk of a revival of Scrubs. A couple of years ago, Zack Braff he said: “We all want to do it in some way, whether it’s a movie or a miniseries or something like that.”

Additionally, co-star Donald Faison said, “We’re well on our way to doing that,” adding, “It’s going to happen.”

Lawrence previously said of the revival: “We’re doing it because we’re fortunate enough that people care about us. From top to bottom, we enjoy spending time together.

“If you have an excuse to work with people you want to hang out with anyway, go and use it… For me, it’s worth seeing Neil in that suit again.”

I loved Scrubs, so if they actually brought the show back with the original cast, that would be really awesome!
