JD, Turk and Elliot are all present and correct for the revival – technically the comedy's 10th season – with Dr Cox, Carla, The Janitor and Hooch also returning to Sacred Heart for more shenanigans – and some heartfelt moments, too.

"Medicine has changed; interns have changed; but their bromance has stood the test of time," the synopsis teases. "Characters new and old navigate the waters of Sacred Heart with laughter, heart and a few surprises along the way."

To mark this most momentous of occasions, the show opened with a double episode drop – but when will the next one arrive?

Read on for everything you need to know about the release schedule for the Scrubs reboot.

When will episode 3 of the Scrubs reboot be released?

The Scrubs reboot is working to a weekly release schedule, debuting in the US on Wednesday 25 February on ABC and in the UK on Thursday 26 February on Disney+.

Episodes 1 and 2 dropped at the same time – which means episode 3 will be released on Wednesday 4 March on ABC in the US and Thursday 5 March on Disney+ in the UK.

There are a total of 9 episodes in the Scrubs reboot.

That's quite a bit shorter than the show's earliest seasons – so here's hoping more seasons are on their way.
