Bill Lawrence on Scrubs Continuation

NBC advertised the most recent episode of Scrubs as the finale. As fans knew that season seven was to be the last, they might have worried that the episode, which did not address, let alone resolve, many long term plot threads, was it. Actually, because of the writer's strike, the show will continue a little bit longer.
Lawrence Puts On Some Extra Scrubs"Yeah, man, we're making episodes all summer so we're doing more than what we intended," said Bill Lawrence. "We just have to wait for a few hours to find out where it's going to be on. There's legal stuff going on. It's very weird being at work. It's like we work in a vacuum. We've been working for a couple months now." This extra eighth season is a bonus for the fans, though it does make Lawrence's job more difficult. "Both a bonus because I love working with the people and it's the greatest job on earth and a burden because it was cool to be headed towards the ending and to have to do more than those seven episodes we have outlined is tough writing the same show for eight years, but it's fun." As Scrubs wraps up, expect to see all your favorite guest stars. "This year, expect the greatest hits file. One of the things we do on Scrubs is that all the guest stars on the show have been, we call then friends of the family. They're cast friends and writer friends, so anybody that you liked in the past that we didn't kill off will be on the show again."
But what about the people we liked that they did kill? "I don't know how to bring back Brendan Fraser. He's dead, man. So is Nicole Sullivan. It's tough. It'd have to be in a fantasy or something but we're going to try to get everybody that's been on the show back on the show." At least we'll get more high fives with The Todd. "Oh, are you kidding me, every time the guy steps on set. He's not playing a character. That's his real schtick, man. You can't stop that guy. He'll be all over the place doing the same thing I'm sure." Wait to see where Scrubs will appear next
