'Scrubs' reboot: Zach Braff and Donald Faison are back in 2026

Entertainment Nov 28, 2025

Scrubs is officially coming back!
The reboot premieres February 25, 2026, on ABC, with Zach Braff and Donald Faison returning as J.D. and Turk.
Expect a fresh take that keeps the heart of the original—friendship and medicine—while mixing in new faces and modern challenges.

Why does this matter?

Fans get to see what J.D. and Turk are up to years later, now navigating today's medical world alongside a new group of interns.
With Vanessa Bayer and Joel Kim Booster joining the cast, plus Braff directing the pilot and Aseem Batra as showrunner, there's plenty for both longtime fans and newcomers to look forward to.
And if you want a refresher, all nine seasons of classic Scrubs are streaming on Hulu and Disney+.
