Sarah Chalke Wants Roseanne Stars on Scrubs Revival

Sarah Chalke, known for her roles as Becky Conner on "Roseanne" and Elliot Reid on "Scrubs," has shared her desire to see former "Roseanne" cast members appear in the "Scrubs" revival. Chalke fondly recalled her time on "Roseanne," describing it as an "embarrassment of riches" of comedic talent, including Sandra Bernhard, Laurie Metcalf, Sara Gilbert, John Goodman, and Johnny Galecki. She indicated that any of these actors would be welcome additions to the "Scrubs" universe.

Specifically, Chalke expressed a desire to have Lecy Goranson, who also portrayed Becky Conner at different times, join the "Scrubs" revival. Chalke highlighted that they haven't worked together extensively despite sharing the role. "Scrubs," which originally aired from 2001 to 2010, follows the lives of medical professionals at Sacred Heart hospital. The revival sees many original cast members return, with Chalke reprising her role as Elliot Reid. The show's current storylines explore Elliot's relationship with J.D. (Zach Braff) following their divorce and their shared professional environment at the hospital.

The "Scrubs" revival airs on ABC on Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET and is available for streaming on Hulu the following day. Chalke previously shared how playing a doctor for nearly a decade on "Scrubs" led to some new medical anxieties, as she sometimes experienced symptoms similar to those depicted in medical storylines.
