Scrubs is an American medical sitcom television series created by Bill Lawrence, which premiered on October 2, 2001, on NBC. The series stars Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Donald Faison, Neil Flynn, Ken Jenkins, John C. McGinley and Judy Reyes. NBC originally announced that Scrubs would end after its seventh season, containing a reduced 18 episodes. However, the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike ended up cutting the show's episodes down to 11, and Scrubs ended its run on NBC with a total of 150 episodes. The cast returned to film an additional 19 episodes, which were aired as season 8 by ABC, with much of the story coming to a close, and definitive though somewhat flexible endings for the characters. The one-hour season finale, "My Finale", was originally planned to also be the series finale. However, ABC renewed the series for a ninth season, in which it would focus on a mix of new and old characters in a new setting. Faison and McGinley returned as series regulars while Braff appeared in six episodes. Chalke, Flynn and Jenkins returned as guest stars, while Reyes did not appear at all. Eliza Coupe, Kerry Bishé, Michael Mosley and Dave Franco joined as series regulars. The series was ultimately canceled after season 9 in May 2010. All series episode titles begin with the word "My", unless the bulk of the episode is narrated by someone other than J.D., in which case they are named "His Story", "Her Story", or "Their Story", with Roman numerals denoting subsequent episodes by the same name. During season 9, episode titles start with the word "Our" instead of "My". As of February 25, 2026, a total of 184 episodes of Scrubs have broadcast over ten seasons. The first nine seasons are available on DVD in Regions 1, 2 and 4. In July 2025, ABC revived the series by officially ordering a tenth season, with Braff, Faison, Chalke, McGinley, and Reyes returning. The season premiered on February 25, 2026. == Series overview == == Episodes == † denotes a "supersized" episode, running an extended length of 25–28 minutes. === Season 1 (2001–02) === === Season 2 (2002–03) === === Season 3 (2003–04) === === Season 4 (2004–05) === === Season 5 (2006) === === Season 6 (2006–07) === === Season 7 (2007–08) === === Season 8 (2009) === === Season 9 (2009–10) === === Season 10 (2026) === == References == == External links == Scrubs at IMDb
