ABC has confirmed the renewal of its revived series Scrubs and the multi-camera comedy Shifting Gears. This renewal marks the second season since Scrubs was revived and represents the eleventh season overall for the iconic series, which has been at the heart of fans since its debut more than two decades ago.
I’m no Superman
On the other hand, Shifting Gears, which has been well received by the audience, will return for its third season. The second season of this comedy is expected to air between October 2025 and February 2026, taking viewers on new comedic journeys. This comedy format has captured the attention of an audience seeking both laughs and emotional connections with the characters, and the producers are eager to continue that legacy in the upcoming season.
The specific details about the plot and cast of both series have not yet been widely revealed. The anticipation for these renewals is palpable on social media, where fans share their wishes and theories about what will come in the new seasons. With the combination of two beloved series returning, ABC aims to strengthen its lineup and attract diverse audiences.
The successful series Scrubs has made its return to ABC after 16 years of absence, and the initial data is incredible; it seems that all the fans of the original series have decided to watch it. The first episode of this reboot managed to capture the attention of 11.4 million viewers in the five days following its premiere. This figure reflects both the live audience and those who accessed the content through streaming platforms, showing solid interest from the fans of the series.

I’m no Superman
The return of Scrubs has generated excitement, especially among those who grew up watching the adventures of the characters in the hospital. The series, known for its unique approach to humor and medical drama, has had a profound effect on pop culture since its initial release. With its return, ABC hopes not only to win back old fans but also to attract a new generation of viewers.
Additionally, it is possible that streaming platforms continue to drive the nostalgia for shows that have made an impact, something that has been seen in the resurgence of several classic series in recent years.
There is something about medical series that we love. It is probably that the structure is really simple, but effective. Life in the hospital leads to many frictions, which fosters relationships and all kinds of conflicts, and the very nature of the work leads to moments of constant tension; it is impossible for interesting things not to be happening constantly in a hospital. Especially if they are scripted. But one particular series decided that the medical part should be less important than the human part, the relationship between the characters. And that, in addition, it should focus on the aspect that no one else […]
There is something about medical series that we love. It is probably because the structure is really simple, yet effective. Life in the hospital leads to many frictions, which fosters relationships and all kinds of conflicts, and the very nature of the work leads to moments of constant tension, it is impossible for interesting things not to be constantly happening in a hospital. Especially if they are scripted.
But a particular series decided that the medical aspect should be less important than the human part, the relationship between the characters. And that it should also focus on the aspect that no one else did. Where all hospital series were serious and melodramatic dramas, or realistic and pompous, one in particular decided it could be a hilarious light comedy. Its name, Scrubs.
A purely millennial series
Scrubs premiered on October 2, 2001, on NBC under the direction of Bill Lawrence. The premise was simple. Follow the unique perspective of the protagonist and narrator, Dr. John Michael “J.D.” Dorian, who starts the series as a resident doctor and slowly climbs the hospital ladder while coming into conflict with his colleagues and superiors.
That everything is seen from J.D.’s point of view is important for the narrative of the series. With his head in the clouds, prone to fantasizing and considering himself extremely sensitive, this leads him to conceive absurd situations that blur the line with the reality of what is happening. This results in the series having fantastical, completely absurd, and hilarious scenes, accompanied by the reactions and frictions that arise between the characters, who are not always complicit with the sometimes childish attitude of their protagonist.
The series performed very well, even if it was never the most-watched series on television. During its first three seasons, it easily surpassed 10 million viewers, and until its seventh season, it managed to stay above 6 million. Starting from the eighth season, it would drop to just above 5.5 million, and in the ninth season, coinciding with a change of lead character, it would fall below 4 million with its worst audience figures to date.
Concluding on March 17, 2010, on ABC after its cancellation after seven seasons on NBC, where it ended on May 8, 2008, and was rescued by the former for an eighth and ninth season on January 6, 2009, the series accumulated 182 episodes, of which it is considered that at least the first 150 are good, and the first 68 are outstanding.
An unexpected and celebrated return
This has led ABC to decide to give the series a new chance. Something partly unexpected, but on the other hand also predictable. In an era of reboots, remakes, and relaunches, rescuing a beloved and appreciated series by the public seems like a safe bet. Especially when they have decided that Scrubs will not return in the form of a reboot, but will do so exactly as what fans would have wished from the beginning when the network rescued the series: as an eleventh season with the original actors.
The premise of this eleventh season is that J.D. returns to medicine alongside his best friend, Turk, to face the challenges of how the profession has changed over time. Having to take charge of interns, new colleagues, and the challenges of being veteran professionals and middle-aged men, this will not exclude the fact that they will still be the same two good-hearted goofballs with their heads more in the clouds than their feet on the ground.
Although the original creator, Bill Lawrence, is returning, it is not he who is in charge of the series. That role goes to Aseem Batra, who had already worked on the scripts for the eighth season. Everything stays in-house, but it makes us wonder if it will maintain the spirit of the original series.
Because that is the key to the success of this eleventh season. It will know how to be Scrubs for the fans who have been waiting for 16 years and, at the same time, reach a broader new audience. But to know this, we won’t have to wait or make any tricks. The series premieres on Wednesday, February 26, on Disney+, promising to bring back all that millennial humor that we love so much. Because it can’t be that we are disappointed twice.
Quietly and without fanfare, we have already completed almost all of January 2026, and excuses like “The year has just started” or “It’s too early” no longer hold. They don’t work in your job and, of course, they don’t work in the audiovisual world, which has premiered filled with releases everywhere, movies that “you have to see” and “essential” series, the kind that change every week. However, you can always find fantastic things among the viral and what is announced to you on TikTok. Grab the remote, because I’m going to guide you through those 6 […]
Quietly, we are already almost through January 2026, and excuses like “The year has just started” or “It’s too early” no longer hold. They don’t work in your job, and certainly, they don’t work in the audiovisual world, which has premiered filled with releases everywhere, movies that “you have to see” and “must-watch” series, the kind that change every week. However, there are always fantastic things to discover among the viral content and what is announced to you on TikTok. Grab the remote, because I’m going to guide you through those 6 incredible series from the beginning of 2026 that you can’t miss under any circumstances. And no, they are not the typical ones. Not all of them, at least.
The Pitt (season 2)
Is there really more to say? Doctor Robbie returns to The Pitt, just before taking a few months off, to meet his replacement in the emergency room during a July 4th that promises to be eventful. So far, in just two episodes, the structure of season 1 is repeated, and that is not a bad thing at all: very smart doctors, very sick patients, a lot of blood everywhere, plots that get worse over time, students eager to learn, and 15 hours ahead where you know things are not going to end well. A script marvel that also takes the opportunity to shake up AI. What more could you ask for?
The ‘Burbs
I have to admit that You Can’t Kill the Neighbor is one of my favorite movies from the late 80s, featuring a fantastic Tom Hanks and an unusual dose of dark humor for the time. Even viewed today, it is very entertaining, and perhaps that’s why I was so pleased to learn that its spirit will live again in The Burbs, produced by Seth McFarlane (Family Guy) and Brian Grazer, one of the most experienced producers in creating hits in Hollywood history. In total, there will be 8 episodes that we will see on February 8, and few things excite me more right now.
Scrubs (season 10)
Neither Grey’s Anatomy, nor ER, nor even The Pitt: my favorite medical series in history is Scrubs, which lasted 8 seasons from 2001 to 2009 and had a continuation in the form of a spin-off that was worthless. Now, to make up for the mistake, the original team returns in a season 10 where the characters have grown older (Zach Braff is 50 years old to still be doing “Eagle!” with Donald Faison) but the silliness is still the order of the day. We just have to see if they also remembered to include their heart. It premieres on February 25 on ABC, there will be 9 episodes, and it is still unknown where or when it will arrive on streaming in other countries. Let’s cross our fingers.
Young Sherlock
Fifteen years ago, Guy Ritchie directed Sherlock Holmes 2, but the idea of continuing with the world’s most famous detective has never left his mind. And for good reason: he has now taken the plunge to create Young Sherlock, the adaptation of the original novels by Andrew Lane that he wrote between 2010 and 2015. As it is, everything Ritchie does is, at the very least, interesting, and in this case, it seems he has stepped on the gas alongside Hero Fiennes Tiffin, Ralph Fiennes’ nephew. There will be 8 episodes that we will see on March 4 on Amazon Prime Video. Stay tuned!
Bronca (season 2)
I recognize that it makes me very angry when miniseries end perfectly and then it’s announced that there will be a season 2, but in the case of such a good production as Bronca, I can’t be upset. If the first batch of episodes had Steven Yeun and Ali Wong as psychopathic protagonists, this 2026 we will see Oscar Isaac and Carey Mulligan fighting against Charles Melton and Cailee Spaeny for the favors of the owner of a country club. If it’s as good as the previous one, I wouldn’t mind if they make twenty more seasons. It will premiere on Netflix on April 16, by the way. Mark it down.
How to Get to Heaven from Belfast
I conclude with a series that many may have overlooked. But it shouldn’t be. After all, everything that the creator of Derry Girls, Lisa McGee, does should be followed with genuine passion. In this case, she has created for Netflix the story of three friends investigating the death of an old classmate over 8 episodes that will be released on February 12. Personally, I don’t need to know more to dive right into it: as long as it’s half as good as her previous series, we have gourmet dinner.

Welcome to Sacred Heart!
The tenth season will focus on a 50-year-old J.D., who, after facing numerous challenges throughout his career, finds himself disillusioned with the current medical system. According to Braff, “it is very, very difficult to be a doctor nowadays”, suggesting that the series will address relevant and contemporary issues in the field of medicine. This return brings with it the vision of original creator Bill Lawrence as executive producer, while Aseem Batra takes on the role of showrunner, following the departure of Tim Hobert.
The new season will also introduce a group of interns, including Ava Bunn as Serena, Jacob Dudman as Asher, David Gridley as Blake, Layla Mohammadi as Amara, and Amanda Morrow as Dashana. Additionally, it features well-known characters from previous seasons, such as Carla (Judy Reyes), Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley), Todd (Robert Maschio), and Hooch (Phill Lewis), who will complement the narrative of the series’ return.
Fans of Scrubs will be able to relive the entire story of the series, as all seasons, including the ninth, are available to watch on Hulu. At a time when nostalgia for classics is returning to entertainment, Scrubs promises a reunion that will not only celebrate its legacy but also explore new realities of practicing medicine in modern times.

Reyes, also known for her work in other productions like High Potential, has been acclaimed for her ability to bring complex and endearing characters to life, and her return as Carla will surely add a nostalgic touch to the new series. The first version of Scrubs, aired between 2001 and 2010, became an instant classic, thanks to its unique combination of comedy and drama in the hospital setting, which has generated expectations about how the renewed series will manage to capture that essence.
Judy Reyes’ participation comes in a context where reboots and continuations of classic series are on the rise, indicating a return to stories that have resonated across generations. Although the specific details of the narrative of this new installment have not yet been revealed, the inclusion of such a beloved character suggests that the production aims to honor the legacy of the original series.

The revival has been in preparation for several months and features the collaboration of the original creator Bill Lawrence, also known for his work on successful series like Ted Lasso and Shrinking.
