EXCLUSIVE: Scrubs star Zach Braff is returning to the single-camera comedy series arena, this time as a writer-director. After fielding interest from multiple networks, half-hour Garage Bar, from Braff and 20th Century Fox TV, has sold to ABC, where Scrubs finished its nine-season run.
Braff will write, direct and executive produce Garage Bar, said to combine a workplace idea with the heart and humor of Braff’s 2004 feature Garden State. It will center on a group of friends who start to experience the ups and downs of fame when one of them becomes a pop star. Braff is with CAA, Management 360 and Ken Richmond.
TV Editor Nellie Andreeva - tip her here.

Love Zach Braff so i’m excited for this
Holy hell, Zach, I am so excited for you and can’t wait to experience the places you will take us. Much love! Beth
You are brillant. Love the work you do! Congrats.
Best of luck with the new venture
Way to go Zach!! Can’t wait!
Congrats to ZB!
Hope it goes to pilot and then to series my friend!
Yay!! I love Zach Braff and am very excited about this!
I love Zach, but I really hope this isn’t going to go in the Glee/Smash direction.
He’s smarter than that.
I love Zach, and although I’m a little sad that he won’t be in the t.v. show, I’m glad he’ll at least be behind the screen directing
I’m hoping for CODY LONGO as the lead. He was a great pop star in HOLLYWOOD HEIGHTS.
I loved you in Scrubs and I loved you more in Garden State! Finally you have an avenue to showcase your skills both in front of and behind the camera! Never doubt yourself. Your true fans will stand behind you no matter what!
Looking forward to this!
Fantastic news Zach! Just hope we get to see it over here in the UK.. I’m a massive fan of Scrubs and Garden State x
Congrats man! Keep climibing man
Yes! Can not wait. Im from Liverpool, UK will it air here? Also will you and donald please make appearances!!!?
Zach – happy for you, but… was really hoping you were going to star in the show.
Oh man, I’m so psyched to hear that! You have accomplished all that you have set out to. I mean come on, Garden State was one of the best indie movies I’ve ever watched.
We, Scrubs lovers, have great faith in you, Zach. Way to go!
Super excited. Garden State in a ‘Scrubs’ format. I am def down. Can’t wait. Way to Go!
Dude!! The Zachster is BACK!!! Awesome sauce… Now once in awhile PRETTY please do a cameo?! Was a tasty treat to see you on The Ex’s with Don recently… Love that you’re back in the saddle my friend!. Looking forward to seeing this new series!
If it doesnt have Zac in it then I dont think it will be that popular
Love Zach. Have missed him from TV. Just hope it’ll be on in Scotland as soon as it airs!
Congratulations, go ahead and good luck Zach!! I´m very happy for you.
Way to go Zach-O! You da man! Laff-O-Rama! Slap yo mama! Zach attack!
This is a great oppurtunity for zach and, if he gives the effort he gave scrubs, it will be another braffsterpiece.
