Zach Braff Isn't Dead and Neither is Scrubs

On Monday there was a pretty big internet rumor (originally found here, but now it's gone due to the massive bad publicity) going around that Zach Braff was found dead in his home. Zach Braff decided to clear it up by posting this on his facebook. Turns out the whole thing was supposedly a joke that someone had tried to play on their friends 2 years ago and just hadn't removed from his website. Anyways, somehow the link resurfaced and made crazy news that even made it's way to Zach Braff's mom; which caused Zach to give the creator of this "joke" the douchebag of the day award.

Anyway, putting this prank gone horribly wrong aside, Zach mentioned something very interesting on his video on facebook. He talked about shooting the new Scrubs intro and and this made me confused. I mean everyone knows that Scrubs had it's series finale this year and that it wasn't supposed to be making anymore episodes right? Wrong, turns out Scrubs is headed for it's "9th" season. That is, if you consider the new Scrubs the same show as the old one. The new show is supposed to take a deeper look into the medical campus joined to the hospital (which I'm pretty sure the original show only revealed once during a morbidity and morality conference that Elliot had to present). It centers around 3 new interns that Dr. Cox and Turk are supposed to be teaching. I hope they keep the old new interns as residents now too, since they were pretty good characters imo. According to Wikipedia Eliza Coupe (aka "Joe") will be returning along with the 3 new interns Michael Mosley (aka Drew), Dave Franco (aka Cole), and Kerry Bishé (aka Lucy), who is supposed to be the new narrator of the show. Sadly J.D. and Elliot are only supposed to be in 6 episodes before leaving the show for good. Also the Janitor might not be in the new show either after the opening episode because of his role in The Middle. All in all Scrubs could still be a good show considering they're keeping Turk, Dr. Cox, and supposedly Joe. But, I feel a little like it could start to suck too, like when Eric left That 70's Show.

Donald Faison Should Keep His Day Job

So normally I wouldn't care that much about Star Wars or Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, but this clip of Donald Faison is hilarious. Turns out he's obsessed with The Empire Strikes back. He also loves Lando Calrissian (I'm sure he was super pumped when Billy Dee made an appearance on Scrubs) and wants to star as Lando in a movie he titles The Chronicles of Lando Calrissian. He was saying that he would just either wear a wig or be Lando before he decided to grow out his hair into a sweet fro. In fact, Donald was so pumped about the idea that he made a Lego stop-motion clip of what would happen with him being Lando. Donald even added his own sound effects to the movie. The interview is pretty hilarious and I think Donald Faison would be a really funny Lando. I do doubt that George Lucas would let him be Lando and that is sad. Watch the clip of the interview below and don't be freaked out that it starts and ends in the middle of the movie.
