LOS ANGELES — PaleyFest continues to pay homage to television’s finest with an engaging event celebrating a beloved comedy show.

The ensemble cast of “Scrubs” reconvened at the iconic Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles for an exclusive screening and interactive Q&A session, marking the return of the series.

Actors Zach Braff, Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Judy Reyes, and John C. McGinley have reprised their roles for the much-anticipated tenth season on ABC. This new chapter picks up several years after the show’s original run from 2001 to 2010.

The Q&A segment was skillfully moderated by cast member Vanessa Bayer, who joins the series as Sibby Wilson in the latest season.

During an interview with On The Red Carpet, the cast shared insights into the enduring charm of “Scrubs” and its timeless narrative.

Zach Braff said, “It’s a show about friendship and community and I think people really respond to that when it’s written well because everyone is longing for community and friendship.”

For Chalke, it was the real-life stories from doctors that left the biggest impact.

“The funnest thing for all of us was hearing from doctors who would write to us and say, ‘Oh my gosh, the show got us through medical school, or got us through really hard times,’ or there was a specific episode they would mention about losing a patient that was helpful to them,” she said.

As new episodes roll out, Reyes made it clear the love for the show has grown!

“A lot of shows have been inspired by it, and we come back and the reception has been even bigger than the first one,” she said.

New episodes of “Scrubs” air Wednesdays at 8/7c on ABC and streams next day on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+.

The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Hulu, Disney+ and this ABC station.
