Well i surfed around the internet and i got very interesting news. Season 9 of Scrub would totally be different from the previous ones. The name of the 1st episode of season 9 of Scrub would be “Our First Day of School” and it will air on November 2009.
On January 29, 2009, Lawrence seemed to tell a crowd at his alma mater, the College of William and Mary, that the eighth season of Scrubs would be the last, but he has since clarified that his actual meaning was that if it continues after Braff leaves, “it would have to be a different show (maybe even different title)”.
On April 16, 2009 Bill Lawrence wrote on the abc.com message boards that a season 9 of Scrubs was still “50/50.” As of May 3, 2009, ABC was billing the episode ‘My Finale’ as only a “finale” and not a series or season finale. On April 28, 2009 it was announced that ABC was in talks to renew Scrubs for another year, however, if this were to happen, some of the cast may or may not be back [due to other commitments], or only back part time.
Bill Lawrence also stated that Scrubs as we know it is over, although there are possibilities for the show to move forward with a new cast in an ER type role on ABC, or take a new title completely. To any who disagreed with it, saying it would tarnish Scrubs’ legacy, Lawrence was quoted saying “‘Legacy shmegacy.’ I’m really proud of the show, I’ll continue to be proud of the show, but I love all of those people…”
On May 14, 2009, it was announced that Zach Braff has signed to be on Scrubs for six episodes to transition the show to its new format. Sarah Chalke confirmed her involvement in season 9 on June 8, 2009 on FOX News Channel’s Fox & Friends talk show. On May 23, 2009 Zach Braff confirmed to Scrubs fans on MySpace his involvement with season 9, but stated that he knew very little about the shape the show will take. Also, Donald Faison, John C. McGinley and Neil Flynn are signed to be regulars for the next season, in second position to other projects. Judy Reyes, according to reports, has not yet been officially approached; however, it is expected that, if she were to reprise her role, it would be merely as a guest star.
On June 19, 2009, it was announced that the reformatted ninth season of Scrubs would “shift from the hospital to the classroom and make med-school professors of John C. McGinley’s Dr. Cox and Donald Faison’s Turk.” According to Lawrence, the ninth season will “be a lot like Paper Chase as a comedy,” with Cox’s and Turk’s students occasionally rotating through the halls of Sacred Heart and encountering former series regulars. McGinley and Faison will be joined by “a quartet of newbies (most of them playing students)” as full-time regulars, while one of the freshmen “will be fairly famous.”
The biggest change to the show on the upcoming season is a major cast revamp. Of the seven actors who have appeared in the show since the pilot, only Donald Faison and John C. McGinley are returning in regular roles (Neil Flynn was set to return had his new ABC show The Middle not been ordered to series). Zach Braff and Sarah Chalke are set to reprise their roles as J.D. and Elliot respectively for the first six episodes of the season, Neil Flynn will return for the first episode. Judy Reyes and Ken Jenkins will also return at some point during the season. The new main cast as it stands so far includes Eliza Coupe returning to the recurring role of Denise “Jo” Mahoney from season eight, Dave Franco as Cole, a charming, conservative, confidently stupid and incredibly entitled medical student whose family donated a wing to the school, Kerry Bishé will play Lucy - the new narrator for the show and Michael Mosley has been announced as playing Drew, an 30 year old having a last attempt at med school. Former Gilmore Girls star Lauren Graham was rumored to be “at the top of [ABC's] wish-list” of potential big-name actors.
Another major change will be the setting of the show and where it is filmed. For the first eight seasons, the show was filmed at the North Hollywood Medical Center but production for this season will take place at Culver Studios. As a result, in the show, the existing Sacred Heart hospital will be mentioned to have been torn down and has been partially re-built on campus - due to the economy they ran out of money while building the hospital and construction ended. There will be “doors that go to nowhere and half-finished operating rooms”.
