It’s been almost nine years since Scrubs aired its finale episode on ABC, following a run that began at NBC way back in 2001. So when the all-star cast reconvened at Vulture Festival in Los Angeles on Saturday, the big question was, would they ever do a reboot?
The answer turned out to be both yes and no, with a negative for a TV revisit, but a ‘maybe’ for a film.
“I would do anything to not only get to work with not only this group, but the writers, and do it again,” creator Bill Lawrence said. “It was the best time in my life…you can never equal that experience. But that said, sometimes reboots, not all the time, but sometimes, they feel like a money grab.”
So while Lawrence isn’t keen on going down that road, he did concede there are some–somewhat unlikely–circumstances that might twist his arm.
