Dead nurse returns to Scrubs

Well, sort of.
Aloma Wright will return to the show this fall, even though her character, Nurse Roberts, was killed off earlier this season. It's part of a deal that she made with Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence: if the show returned for another season, then she could return to the show as Roberts' twin sister Shirley. She'll wear a wig.
Lawrence wasn't sure if there would be another season of the show when he planned her death, but now that they are returning after all he's going to stick to the deal. Which is a good thing. I really liked her character, and if the character can't come back at least the actress can.
Blue Man Group to appear on Scrubs

Off-Broadway theater's accidental punchline The Blue Man Group will be making an appearance on this season's premiere of Scrubs. The blue-skinned, percussion-inclined trio will be joined on stage by Zach Braff's character J.D. at The Venetian Resort Hotel and Casino. This is, of course, not the Blue Man's first television appearance. In addition to numerous ads and talk show appearances, the group was part of an on-going Arrested Development gag, which involved David Cross' Tobias as the group's perpetual understudy. I've got my fingers-crossed for an Arrested Development-Scrubs crossover episode. Zach Braff appeared on the beloved, canceled Fox sitcom and hinted in interviews of Tobias, a licensed therapist, making a possible stop at Sacred Heart Hospital. It's probably just wishful thinking, but a comedy fan can dream.
The Scrubs season premiere is set for Thursday, November 30th at 9PM.
