(Zach Braff), Turk (Donald Faison) and Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley) move to a teaching hospital and share their wisdom with a batch of new interns: the painfully blunt Denise (Eliza Coupe); Lucy (Kerry Bishé), who takes over narrating duties from J.D.; med-school burnout Drew (Michael Mosley); and rich kid Cole (Dave Franco). Though the show's focus shifted to the new interns in Season 9, all members of the original cast made appearances with the exception of Judy Reyes.

More Show More Episodes Critic Reviews for Scrubs Season 9 All Critics (12) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (6) | Rotten (6) At this point, Scrubs has turned its original style into a formula; the fantasy sequences are more predictable, the earnest denouements are automatic. It's a good formula, but one that's no longer vibrant. Dec 1, 2009 | Full Review… Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe Top Critic The transplant is unlikely to produce a dramatic rally. But it does give friends and family a reason to keep visiting. Dec 1, 2009 | Full Review… David Hinckley New York Daily News Top Critic It's a solid little comedy, in which Scrubs fans can recognize the spirit of the show they loved, even if it's not Scrubs at its best. Dec 1, 2009 | Full Review… Alan Sepinwall Newark Star-Ledger Top Critic A change of scenery has done Scrubs a world of good. Dec 1, 2009 | Rating: B+ | Full Review… Verne Gay Newsday Top Critic Even though Scrubs' delicate mix of comedy and pathos had been firmly established for years, this season just never felt right. Sep 4, 2018 | Full Review… Jonah Krakow IGN Movies "Scrubs 2.0" continues the momentum of the last season's effort. Reworking "Scrubs" is the best thing that could have ever happened to it, as it allowed Lawrence to shed a few characters that had exhausted their usefulness Sep 4, 2018 | Full Review… Dustin Rowles Pajiba Good job, TV people! The new Scrubs is frankly just great. Oct 11, 2013 | Full Review… Jennifer Godwin E! Online It's not terrifically awful, but it's also not as reliably fun as Scrubs was in its prime.
