John C. McGinley has played countless roles over the course of his 40-year career — but to many fans, he’ll always be Dr. Perry Cox, the hard-charging mentor of J.D. (Zach Braff) on beloved medical comedy Scrubs. The series, which ran from 2001 to 2010, airing for seven season on ABC before jumping to NBC for its final two, is in the process of being revived, with Braff the first cast member to officially sign on. But, as McGinley told Channel Guide, he is also planning to participate in the revival.
McGinley, whose 2024 Hallmark+ holiday series Holidazed will air on the Hallmark Channel this summer as part of their “Christmas in July” programming, told Channel Guide that he’s staying very busy with work, and anticipates being involved in the Scrubs revival soon.
