Dr. Elliot Reed will return...and she'll be pregnant. (ABC)
"Scrubs" star Sarah Chalke recently sat down with TV Guide, and during the discussion we got a pretty good idea of what the revamped version of the long-running comedy will look like. (Warning: if you don't want potential spoilers, now is the time to turn away.)
Chalke said that, first of all, her real-life pregnancy would in fact be written into the show; just like in the vision J.D. (Zach Braff) had at the end of this past season, Elliot will be married to her fellow doctor and expecting a baby. She claims that creator "Bill [Lawrence] was very generous to write it in, so I'm not, like, carrying a giant chart or something in front of my belly all the time." She said that the plan was too do a few episodes until the baby gets too big before returning after a brief hiatus. Even though the story of J. D. and Elliot is not the primary story anymore, it will still have a place.
She also confirmed what many have been saying for months, that the return of "Scrubs" will be more in a classroom setting and focus more on Dr. Turk (Donald Faison) as a teacher alongside his former boss Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley). Zach Braff will still appear, though it will only be in a small handful of episodes.
Are you excited to see "Scrubs" back on the air in January, or do you think the show should've ended last season? Let me know your thoughts with a comment below!
