Scrubs Seventh And Final Season Airing On NBC Or ABC

In August work will on Scrubs’ seventh (and final) season. The only question is which network it’ll air on. Series creator Bill Lawrence confirms that ABC, which owns the show, still plans on picking it up should NBC cancel it. “I would’ve written a series finale [this season] if there was any chance the show was going to be canceled,” he says. “I was going to end the show, and the good people at ABC basically said, ‘The show’s on ABC next year if it’s not on NBC. Do not end it.’ And as if to prove their intentions, they went and signed Zach up for a contract next year, which is ridiculously foolish if they weren’t planning to pick it up. So I have every reason to trust and believe them. “Right now, I would almost bet it’ll end up on ABC for its last season,” Lawrence adds. “But two weeks from now, when NBC gets [a look at] their pilots, it could shift.”
