Scrubs Returns for Season 11, and the Beloved Medical Sitcom Is Funnier and More Heartwarming Than Ever - IGN
The medical sitcom Scrubs returns for its eleventh season on ABC and Hulu, featuring returning cast members Zach Braff and Donald Faison. The new season promises a blend of the show's classic humor with a more serialized narrative approach.
Why it matters
The revival of popular legacy sitcoms reflects current streaming trends that prioritize established intellectual property to drive subscriber engagement.
The first two episodes of Scrubs Season 11 premiere on ABC on September 30 and on Hulu on October 1.
In an era where it's become customary to wait years between new seasons of many popular shows, it's certainly a treat to receive two seasons of Scrubs in the same calendar year. The previous revival season proved to be the ultimate sitcom comfort food. It effortlessly wiped away the stigma of Season 9 and won fans back over with its depiction of the eternal bromance between Drs. John Dorian (Zach Braff) and Christopher Turk (Donald Faison). Season 10 wasn't without its problems, but it was a fun little romp that recaptured the charming vibe of the original series. Season 11 is much the same, but with a slightly more ambitious storytelling approach added for good measure.
