Fall TV Preview: Zach Braff

This is part of our Fall TV Preview in the Sep/Oct 2007 issue.


On the verge of cancellation several times, the critically acclaimed but ratings-challenged hospital sitcom Scrubs has a loyal audience that will get to see it for one final season as part of NBC's Thursday night comedy block. "There's something really cool about knowing it's your last season. I think it's really going to excite the crew and the cast, knowing we're going out with a bang," says star Zach Braff. "Seven years is a really awesome run for a TV comedy. I think that we're all in a place where it'll be a good way to go out."

Plots will, among other things, see his character coping with fatherhood. "Think of all the comedy of J.D. trying to deal with an infant. I can't wait," says Braff, but don't expect to see any Chanukah episodes. "I was trying to think of a nice Jewish holiday theme," he says. "It's hard to do that when we're only two percent of the population."

Scrubs premieres Oct. 25 at 9:30 PM on NBC.
