The Scrubs<\/em> revival is returning for a second season \u2014 but not every cast member is coming back.<\/p>\n

The medical sitcom, which originally aired from 2001 to 2010, followed the lives of employees<\/a> at the fictional teaching hospital Sacred Heart Hospital. The hit series starred Zach Braff, Sarah Chalke, Donald Faison, Judy Reyes, Neil Flynn, Ken Jenkins<\/strong> and John C. McGinley<\/strong> before it was brought back for a ninth season titled Med School.<\/p>\n

In season 8, JD (Braff) left Sacred Heart while Elliott (Chalke), Turk (Faison), Dr. Cox (McGinley) and Carla (Reyes) remained at the teaching hospital. The show\u2019s final season moved the setting to a medical school to introduce new characters.<\/p>\n

Only Braff, Faison and McGinley remained regular cast members<\/a> while others made guest appearances. Kerry Bish\u00e9, Eliza Coupe, Dave Franco <\/strong>and Michael Mosley<\/strong> were brought in, and Bish\u00e9 became the show\u2019s new narrator after Braff, but the concept only lasted one season.<\/p>\n
