The Scrubs Revival Sounds A Lot Like The Pitt (And That’s A Bad Idea)

So we have a “shrub” wake -up. It’s frustrating because I am a huge fan of Bill Lawrence’s medical comedy that originally ran from 2001 to 2010 on the NBC – and its last year in that form ABC. Dr. John “JD” Dorian, led by Zach Braff, The program was funny, shockingly emotional and surprisingly medically accurate (This last is a kind of anecdotic based on doctors I am talking with whom I am chatting, but still), and its main character actors-Donald Faison’s Cocksure surgeon (and JD’s Bestie) Chris Turk, Judy Reyes hard but big heart nurse Carla Espinos Mentor, Dr. Perry Cox, played John C. McGinley – are evenly excellent.

All of this sounds like it could increase the promising reboot of the series, but I have doubts, and it is due to the recent revival from Lawrence (to which Braff has already been placed to return). When talking about TvlineLawrence responded to the challenges of taking Turkey and JD to the new stage of their lives. “The hardest part is that Zach and Donald are older,” he said.

“People still have that kinship and love for that down youth […] But if I saw two friends in the late 40s/early 50s by making the ‘most giant doctor in the world’, and carrying each other all the time, I would go, “What happen to f *** k” do you know? See what it [friendship] Looks like their age and [take] A comic review of what medicine has come from since these children started as trainees and look at how people look at it, deal with it, and try to stay optimistic. “

Lawrence continued, saying everywhereAnd the general public is increasingly showing unprocessed medical professionals. “So look at how the system not only changed, but how it has hit some of these people and how they retain their optimism with the new wave of young characters, it has really been fun,” Lawrence said. Wait, a series that looks at the doctors struck by the system?! It sounds familiar! It is probably because it exists now. It’s called “The Pitt”. I love it as much as I love “shrubs” and we don’t need another!
