"Scrubs" Rebooted at ABC

I absolutely adore the old show and i hope they can update it to fit a new reality in medicine and how the characters progressed since the original show ended.

Seems like they have a good core of returning characters and i hope to see many cameos from original characters though i'm still sad about the passing of Sam Lloyd which means Ted won't come back ( my favorite supporting character).
 
Didn't the series end because Braff didn't want to keep doing the series?

I guess if you got bills to pay.
 
Hm, I lost interest in the original when the soap opera relationship stuff really started dominating the show, and the fantasy cutaways dwindled to one or two per episode. Maybe the amount of the fantasies the series started off with was unsustainable without making JD look like a crazy person, but without them, it steadily became a blander, less interesting, and increasingly treacly sitcom.

Now that the main three are well into middle age, though, I'm not sure bringing back tons of goofy fantasies would work any better. Ergo, unless they did something really wild with the revival, like set it in a semi-apocalyptic aftermath of a planetary alien invasion, it'll probably be a generic "Gee, aren't the challenges of raising kids while working full-time wacky!" kind of sitcom. Which, if that's what the target audience wants, swell. It just probably won't be for me.
