US TV network ABC is said to be planning a new version of Scrubs for next season. According to The Hollywood Reporter the new show will be a hybrid, and will feature old cast regulars alongside new cast members who appeared as interns this season.

Original cast members Zach Braff (John ‘J.D.’ Dorian), Sarah Chalke (Dr Elliot Reid) have agreed to return for six episodes, with their fellow cast members Donald Faison (Dr Christopher Turk), John C McGinley (Dr Perry Cox) and Neil Flynn (The Janitor) all returning as series regulars.

Judy Reyes (Nurse Carla Espinosa) may return for a handful of episodes if the ninth series gets the green light.
