Nine episodes are planned and are expected to be released on Disney+ in late 2026, while filming will begin soon in Canada.
The return of the main actors is a reason for the fans' enthusiasm. Zach Braff once again portrays Dr. John Dorian, while Sarah Chalke as Elliot Reid, Judy Reyes as Carla, and John C. McGinley as Dr. Cox return. Although the original series aired on NBC from 2001 to 2010 and then on ABC from 2009 to 2010, viewers can be pleased that Bill Lawrence, the series' creator, remains active as an executive producer. The new season is expected to feature an interaction between the well-known characters and new interns at Sacred Heart Hospital.

Filming is expected to begin in October 2025, and the advance announcements such as the table reading photo get fans in the mood for the new 2025-2026 TV season.

The series received six Emmy nominations, including for Zach Braff's outstanding performance as lead actor in 2005. Although the medical comedy genre competes with other series such as Dr. Ken and House, Scrubs remains a standout with a loyal fan base.
The revival is intended to reflect the changing healthcare system in the USA and meet the contemporary challenges of today's medicine. Fans and critics hope that the series continues to maintain the humorous yet emotional tone that has always characterized it.
