Johnny Mac delivers a bonus, spoiler-filled scene-by-scene recap of Scrubs Season 10 Episode 1 (“My Return,” aired Feb. 25, 2026), praising the reboot for feeling like classic Scrubs while ignoring Season 9 per Bill Lawrence. The episode opens with a fake prestige-drama cold open before revealing JD doing concierge medicine, then reintroduces the hospital, old characters, and new interns; Turk and JD reunite with the “eagle” gag, Carla appears to be in charge at the nurses station, and Elliot now runs the simulation lab. A major reveal is that JD and Elliot are divorced, framed by Lawrence and Zach Braff as a realistic midlife outcome contrasted with Turk and Carla's stable marriage. Dr. Cox, tired and burned out, manipulates JD into mentoring interns and ultimately offers him chief of medicine, hinting Cox may return later in a different capacity and possibly face health issues.00:00 Bonus Recap Setup01:02 Cold Open Fakeout01:38 Title Sequence Return02:00 Old Crew Updates02:16 Back at Sacred Heart02:43 JD and Elliot Split02:53 Why the Divorce04:09 New Interns and Themes04:45 Cox Sets Up JD05:16 Chief of Medicine Twist06:15 Cox Future and Health Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

This podcast is normally a place to talk movies and streaming shows, but the Olympics provided their own form of drama during the two weeks of the Games that just concluded. You had the 'Quad God' Ilia Malinin falling short of gold. There were the ice dancers — and "Glitter & Gold" stars — Madison Chock and Evan Bates, who took silver following team gold. And there was also Eileen Gu, the American-born freestyle skier competing for China and a major social media influencer. In this week's episode, co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz talk about the Olympics, their favorite moments, and the Netflix miniseries "Glitter & Gold," which takes viewers behind the scenes and into the world of ice dancing.

Johnny Mac delivers comedy news focused on the Scrubs revival premiering Wednesday at 8:00 PM on ABC (with Hulu next day).He shares personal enthusiasm for the original series and summarizes details from interviews with Zach Braff and Donald Faison: the revival mixes a young, diverse writers' room with original writers, and centers on JD and Turk reconnecting at Sacred Heart as medicine and a new generation of interns have evolved while their friendship endures.Returning cast includes Zach Braff (JD), Donald Faison (Turk), Sarah Chalke (Elliot), Judy Reyes (Carla), John C. McGinley (Dr. Cox), and the Todd!.Not all characters will appear in every episode due to scheduling.Ken Jenkins (Dr. Kelso, 85) and Neil Flynn (the Janitor) are not in season one yet, with Braff saying it may depend on a potential second season.New cast additions include Vanessa Bayer as a wellness/HR figure with a thick file on the Todd, Joel Kim Booster as attending Dr. Eric Park, and interns named Serena, Asher, Blake, Amara, and Deana; additional intern descriptions include Amara (sheltered, homeschooled), Dashana (confident, written like a young Turk), and Tosh (an Instagram-famous influencer doctor).The episode notes Sam Lloyd's death (Ted) and that the show will pay tribute by naming a new hangout ‘Lloyd's Tavern,' with plans for a tribute episode possibly in season one or season two. Mac discusses the controversy around season nine (the ‘Med School' era) and Braff's preference to frame the new project as a ‘revival' rather than a reboot, citing Bill Lawrence's view that season nine should have had a different title.Spoilers ..........nclude JD returning as a concierge doctor because a patient is admitted to Sacred Heart, Turk as chief of surgery, Elliot as a high-up attending, and Dr. Cox adapting his teaching style to modern wellness rules and workplace norms. The script also revisits contemporary and later reviews of Scrubs, notes criticism about outdated portrayals of women and characters like the Todd, and highlights memorable episodes such as ‘My Screw Up,' ‘My Last Words,' ‘My Old Lady,' ‘My Fallen Idol,' and the season eight finale originally intended as the series finale.00:00 Scrubs Revival Is Here: Johnny's Hype & Personal Connection00:43 What We Know So Far: Premise, Returning Cast & Who Might Be Missing03:03 New Faces at Sacred Heart + Honoring Sam Lloyd (Ted)04:07 The Season 9 Problem: Reboot vs Revival (and the ‘Med School' Debate)05:27 How the Revival Finally Happened: Podcast, Ads, and Scheduling the Reunion06:07 Spoiler Zone: First Look Clips & Where Everyone Is Now07:48 Modern Hospital, Modern Rules: Dr. Cox vs HR, Wellness, and New Interns09:23 Why Scrubs Worked: Early Reviews, What Aged Poorly, and Best Episodes13:11 Final Thoughts + When to Watch (ABC/Hulu)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/daily-comedy-news-with-johnny-mac--4522158/support.Daily Comedy News is the number one comedy news podcast, delivering daily coverage of standup comedy, late night television, comedy specials, tours, and the business of comedy.COMEDY SURVIVOR in the facebook group.Contact John at John@thesharkdeck dot com For Uninterrupted Listening, use the Apple Podcast App and click the banner that says Uninterrupted Listening.  $4.99/month John's Substack about media is free.This is the animal sanctuary mentioned in the February 10 episode.

We begin this episode by acknowledging the passing of a truly incredible actress — one who played a pivotal role in the life and legacy of Woody Allen, among many others in Hollywood and beyond. Diane Keaton (1946–2025) will be deeply missed.     She passed away the very next day after we recorded this episode, and I (Don) actually found out during the editing phase. Soon after, James and I spoke about it briefly, and we'll be dedicating a few special episodes to Diane — the next one after this, for sure.     Until then, we send our warmest thoughts to the Keaton family as we remember and celebrate a wholly original, endlessly inspiring woman — an actress, mother, friend, and creative spirit unlike any other.     ______________________________________________________     On this episode of Woody Adjacent, we're taking on another Reddit request — and likely the last for a while since we've got a long list of adjacent films ahead!     French Girl (2024), starring Zach Braff, Evelyne Brochu, and Vanessa Hudgens, directed by James A. Woods and Nicolas Wright is our focus today.     It's a film that's divided audiences but also carved out an interesting little niche fanbase... it certainly gave us plenty to talk about!     James and I dig into whether it's a modern Meet the Parents, a Canadian Two Days in Paris, or something else entirely — and how its blend of sincerity and slapstick comedy tries to makes a case that love really is the most confusing language of all.   Was this case made for the film.... well... let's discuss!   Links Mentioned In This Episode__________________   Woody Allen Free Press Interview   https://youtu.be/xc9tEipzWUk?si=zFlYjWKnnfL3wExb     Diane Keaton - Remembering Diane Keaton By ET   https://youtu.be/n9M6Z8Xnmus?si=kwox6GVaTK6KM785     For full cast details, user reviews, and more background on the film, check out:

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesRight after our episode last week, our pal James Gunn dropped big news on Wednesday - the next Superman film written by him will be called Man of Tomorrow. Gunn, David Corneswet, and others involved shared particular artwork by DC Comics President Jim Lee that showed Lex Luthor in a mech suit to make the announcement. In typical Gunn fashion, the DC Studios co-chair has teased this film isn't a direct sequel, but is the next installment in what he calls the “Superman saga.” The film's title is reminiscent of the Milly Alcock led Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which releases next year. In other DC movie news, Weapons director Zach Cregger addressed rumors that have been circulating about his involvement with a Joker and Harley Quinn movie. Cregger called stories about him having written a treatment for the two iconic DC villains “blown out of proportion,” but did indicate that he has a couple of films he's interested in working on, though he hasn't spoken with James Gunn yet.At the Toronto International Film Festival last Friday, Ryan Reynolds finally admitted the internet's worst kept secret - that he was the one who leaked the original Deadpool test footage in 2014 to the world wide web. Reynolds went on to say that Fox simply didn't seem interested in releasing an R-rated superhero movie and his passion for the character led him to the extreme action, which he doesn't regret. Fans of Deadpool are likely forever grateful that Reynolds did what he did, which led to pressure on the studio to make the film a reality. In other questionable swings from stars both in front of and behind the camera, The Russos released a blurry image with the caption #Doomsday Is Coming via Instagram earlier today.No last rites are being read for horror at the box office this year, as the supposed final installment in the Conjuring universe, The Conjuring: Last Rites, raked in $84 million domestically this weekend for its opening. This massive box office marks the best for this franchise ever, and the third biggest opening for a horror film of all-time. Warner Brothers and New Line are laughing all the way to the bank, having projected a $35 million opening box office and the movie cost about $55 million to make.

LOOK OUT! It’s only Films To Be Buried With! A REWIND CLASSIC! Join your host Brett Goldstein as he talks life, death, love and the universe with wonderful actor and improviser ZACH BRAFF! Dearest Films To Be Buried With crew! Last week was the Tony Hale Rewind Classic. This week we have the Zach Braff Rewind Classic. The season is indeed transmitting in a slightly different frequency to usual, but we truly appreciate your continued support and listening ears. Regular service will resume shortly, but for now we are on a bit of a Summer Holiday schedule! The podcast has thrown a tantrum and screamed and screamed and all of us involved in its making have had to sit it in the car with a lil' sippy cup, a lollypop, its favourite teddybear (a fluffy Simba of course), and throw on a ton of easy to sing-a-long playtime jams on the stereo, while we drive it to the seaside where heaven help us we may all get some peace. So thank you for being here, and for being cool and patient while we all resume our composure. Everyone exhausted after that extended metaphor? I can only assume so. X Each Rewind gets a mini brush-up and comb through too, so hopefully you'll be experiencing a "remastered" feel too - no quad-surround Dolby action unfortunately but just a slightly nicer iteration for 2025. Below is the original writeup: ––––––––––––––––––––––––– Actor, director, screenwriter, fake doctor. But REAL friend. You may of course know Zach from his full term shift as J.D. in Scrubs, or maybe you saw Garden State, or perhaps some more recent work altogether - well here's your perfect chance to catch up on everything Zach, which includes those fun packed back in the days nuggets, the Scrubs podcast, what the term 'execution dependent' could possibly mean, directing a Ted Lasso and becoming an inventor in the process, younger day sob-fests, and being an HSP! You'll find out. A lovely chirpy episode which you'll love! Video and extra audio available on Brett's Patreon!

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universes.Last week Disney pushed Avengers: Doomsday from its May 1, 2026 release to December 18, 2026 and Avengers: Secret Wars from May 7, 2027 to December 18, 2027. The studio also removed several unannounced Marvel titles from its release calendar: a February 13, 2026 dated release has been removed entirely while November 2026 and 2027 releases have been rebranded from untitled Marvel films, to untitled Disney films.Memorial Day weekend's $326.7 million haul at the domestic box office was enough to earn it the title of the highest grossing Memorial Day weekend ever, with newcomer, Disney's live action Lilo & Stitch remake leading the way with $183 million, overtaking Top Gun: Maverick's $160 million weekend from 2022. Speaking of Tom Cruise, he was no slouch either, with the Mission: Impossible franchise's latest and supposed final installment, The Final Reckoning, earning a franchise high of $77.5 million.While appearing on a recent episode of The Box Office Podcast, Ryan Reynolds revealed he pitched an R-rated Star Wars film to Disney, saying, “I pitched to Disney, I said, ‘Why don't we do an R-rated “Star Wars” property? It doesn't have to be overt, A+ characters. There's a wide range of characters you could use,'” he said. “And I don't mean R-rated to be vulgar. R-rated as a Trojan horse for emotion. I always wonder why studios don't want to just gamble on something like that.” The Deadpool actor clarified the film would not be for him to star in, but contribute behind the scenes by writing and producing. Notably absent from the conversation is Disney's reception to the pitch.After an extensive search auditioning more than 30,000 actors, HBO's Harry Potter series has finally found its Harry, Hermoine and Ron, as Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton, and Alastair Stout have been cast in the respective roles. Much like their predecessors from the films, our three leads are relative newcomers, with McLaughlin appearing alongside Hagrid-actor Nick Frost in the upcoming Sky comedy, Grow, and Stanton having starred as Matilda in Matilda The Musical on West End from 2023 to 2024, while this will be Stout's first significant role.Kieran Culkin has been cast as Caesar Flickerman in Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, The Hollywood Reporter has learned exclusively.The reboot of medical comedy Scrubs from Bill Lawrence and ABC currently in development has officially cast Zach Braff who will return to the series to reprise the role of JD, a character he played for 9 seasons.A24 confirmed Alex Garland will write and direct a live-action Elden Ring film with Bandai Namco Entertainment. The acclaimed game won the 2022 Game of the Year Award and has sold over 30 million copies.The Wheel of Time has been canceled after three seasons at Amazon‘s Prime Video. The series, from Sony Pictures Television and Amazon MGM Studios and based on Robert Jordan's best-selling series of fantasy novels, aired its third-season finale on April 17.James Gunn confirmed DC Studios will attend Comic-Con this year(July 24-27) with a panel focusing on Peacemaker season 2.

Today I'm sharing an episode of Mentor Buffet—a new podcast hosted by Alexi Pappas, the Olympian-author-filmmaker. In each episode, Alexi goes deep with brilliant changemakers to learn about the mentors who made the biggest difference in their lives and set them on their path. In this episode, Zach Braff talks with Alexi about his relationship with mentor Bill Lawrence, the creator of Scrubs and Ted Lasso. Bill was the first person to give Zach his big Hollywood break, casting him as the lead in Scrubs as the iconic J.D. Dorian. They also discuss the importance of being yourself, what Zach learned from making his debut feature film Garden State, the value of gratitude, and how to avoid shin splints.
