Evo clanka o Scrubsu (clanak ukljucuje i Privileged):
We're not going to sugarcoat anything--things look grim for most shows not considered locks to be returning next fall. The proliferation of cable, the anti-proliferation of the economy, and the relocation of Jay Leno are making things difficult for all programs "on the bubble."
So when positive vibes about renewal come around, it's certainly a breath of fresh air. Today, word came out that ABC is in talks to keep a toe-tag off Scrubs for another year, and that the CW is giving freshman dramedy Privileged a glimmer of hope.
Scrubs was thought to be a goner at the conclusion of this season, but Variety is reporting that ABC is talking about keeping the show on board for a ninth season by lowering the comedy's budget. Star Zach Braff has also reportedly expressed interest in returning for more episodes, likely in a recurring role.
The rest of the cast, however, is a slightly different story. John C. McGinley--who plays Dr. Cox--has been cast in CBS' Back, Donald Faison--who plays Turk--has joined ABC's The Law with Cedric the Entertainer, and Neil Flynn--a.k.a. The Janitor--is signed on for ABC's The Middle. Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence is also working on another project, Cougar Town. If Scrubs does pull off a miracle return, expect these names to be involved in recurring roles.
As for Privileged, the renewal talk is waaaaaay more unofficial. EW.com says The CW is planning on airing repeats of Privileged this summer, which is a sign that the show has life… the logic being a network would only rerun a show that is likely to return. It's a long shot, but it's a shot nonetheless.
I'm not sure there is much room on The CW with the new Melrose Place remake, a Gossip Girl spinoff, and The Vampire Diaries almost sure locks for the fall schedule.
