Is There Hope for "Scrubs" After All?

OMG, Scrubs has more lives than One Tree Hill...

Mandy Moore Announces Engagement to Ryan Adams on "The Bonnie Hunt Show"

We at the Remote Island want to assure you that we are not always about snark and sarcasm. No friends, sometimes, we are about love -- our deep and passionate love for Drew Barrymore and Jennifer Aniston for example. Thus, in honor of Valentine's Day, we'd like to take a moment to celebrate love wherever we find it, in this case on The Bonnie Hunt Show...

"Scrubs" Star Assumes He Will Have A Post-"Scrubs" Career

We know what you're thinking. "Zach Braff is leaving Scrubs? Holy Hannah! Scrubs is still on?"

Yes, it's true. Now, is this the final nail in the coffin of Bill Lawrence's undying medical comedy, which has been devouring our delicious brains for a decade and will move from NBC to ABC in the 2008 season? Depends on who they're replacing Braff with. If it's Jay Mohr or this guy, there might be hope.

Newsflash: Courteney Cox Works! “Scrubs” Is Still On!

The latest dirt on Courteney Cox has her signed on for three episodes of Scrubs, wherein she’ll play Sacred Heart’s new Chief of Medicine. Apparently Miss Cox will “ruffle feathers” in the new role.

For more insight into the future of Scrubs, as it changes networks and, potentially, direction…Zach Braff’s MySpace page has a lil’ ode to/excerpt from an interview with show creator Bill Lawrence. Zach writes, “One of the many reasons I love Bill Lawrence is that the dude doesn't mince words. At a time when sound-bites have become as carefully crafted as a Martha Stewart petit four, Bill continues to tell it like it is.” We love a man who can craft a good simile. And it looks like Lawrence truly doesn’t mince words...

She loves Charles Dickens and Gabriel Garcia Marquez and also, straight-to-video releases with Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. It's possible she reads more teen fiction than she should.

She loves one-liners with sting and hates the stench of the subway in the summer. That said, she can’t get enough of either.
