May 22, 2025 "Scrubs: Zach Braff Set to Return for ABC Sitcom Revival": Today I found this article on TV series finale.com:
A key component of the Scrubs revival has been locked in place. According to Deadline, Zach Braff will return for the reboot, which is currently being developed by ABC.
There were some hiccups along the way. Braff didn’t immediately sign to join the reboot. He wants the series to be filmed in Los Angeles and not Vancouver. It isn’t known if he got his wish, but he finally agreed to sign on for the Scrubs reboot.
ABC and Bill Lawrence can now start making deals with the remaining former cast members, including Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke.
A reboot of the series will be a hybrid that focuses on a new group of characters while also examining the original cast.
Additional details will be announced later.

Sept. 26, 2025 "‘Scrubs’ Reboot: The Gang Is Back Together For First Table Read & Cast Photo": Today I found this article by Denise Petski on Deadline:
The band is back together. The original main cast of Scrubs reunited today for the first table read for the upcoming ABC reboot. You can see the cast photo above, featuring original series creator Bill Lawrence and OG stars Donald Faison, Sarah Chalke, Zach Braff, Judy Reyes and John C. McGinley.
Given a straight-to-series order by ABC in July, the new series will follow JD Dorian (Braff) and Christopher Turk (Faison), who scrub in together for the first time in a long time- medicine has changed, interns have changed, but their bromance has stood the test of time.
Characters new and old navigate the waters of Sacred Heart with laughter, heart and some surprises along the way.
Lawrence executive produces the reboot, with Scrubs alums Tim Hobert and Aseem Batra as showrunners and executive producers.
Hobert was a writer, executive producer and consulting producer on Scrubs;
Batra was a writer and story editor.
Jeff Ingold and Liza Katzer also will EP the reboot on behalf of Lawrence’s production company, Doozer.
The original series ran on NBC for seven seasons from 2001-08 and then on ABC for two more in 2009-10. It followed medical interns Dorian, Turk and Elliot Reid (Chalke) as well as other personnel at the Sacred Heart Hospital.
Of the reboot, Lawrence previously told Deadline that he envisions Scrubs 2.0 as a hybrid between a
revival,
revisiting original characters a decade and a half after the original series ended its run,
and a reboot, bringing back the original concept with new surgical interns.
The series won two Primetime Emmys over the course of its run as well as a Peabody Award in 2006.
A premiere date for the reboot is TBA.

My opinion: I saw a couple of episodes of this show. I wasn't really interested in doctors and medicine.
There's St. Denis Medical on NBC which is also a sitcom about people working in a hospital. I have never watched this show.
"It follows an underfunded, understaffed hospital where the doctors and nurses try their best to treat patients while maintaining their own sanity."
