Fans of the iconic medical comedy Scrubs still hold a special place in their hearts for the show's quirky characters and heartfelt humour. But what have the stars been up to since the series ended in 2010? Here's a look at where the cast is now—and whether a reboot could be in the works.
Zach Braff (J.D.)
Zach Braff, who played the lovable daydreamer J.D., has kept busy with directing, writing, and acting. After Scrubs, he starred in and directed films like Wish I Was Here and Going in Style. He also reunited with co-star Donald Faison for the podcast Fake Doctors, Real Friends, where they revisit episodes of Scrubs and share behind-the-scenes stories.
Donald Faison (Turk)
Donald Faison, known for his role as the charismatic surgeon Turk, has appeared in shows like The Exes and Cloak & Dagger. His chemistry with Braff remains strong, as evidenced by their podcast and frequent social media banter. Fans still hope for more Turk and J.D. antics in the future.
Sarah Chalke (Elliot)
Sarah Chalke, who portrayed the neurotic but brilliant Elliot Reid, went on to star in How I Met Your Mother, Rick and Morty, and Firefly Lane. She’s also been vocal about her love for Scrubs and hasn’t ruled out a return to the role.
John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox)
John C. McGinley’s sardonic Dr. Cox remains one of TV’s most memorable characters. Post-Scrubs, he’s taken on roles in films like 42 and TV series such as Stan Against Evil. He’s also an advocate for Down syndrome awareness, inspired by his son.
Judy Reyes (Carla)
Judy Reyes, who played the no-nonsense nurse Carla, has continued her TV career with roles in Devious Maids and Succession. She’s also expressed interest in revisiting Carla if a reboot happens.
Could a Reboot Happen?
Rumours of a Scrubs revival have swirled for years. While creator Bill Lawrence has hinted at potential ideas, nothing concrete has materialised. The cast remains close, however, and their enthusiasm for reuniting keeps hope alive for fans.
