Those of you who watched last week’s episode of Scrubs might have walked away scratching your heads.  Not only did the fairy tale storyline seem a bit anti-climactic (it was supposed to be a season finale, after all), the show included an appearance from Dr. Kelso. (Didn’t he already leave the hospital?)

In a recent message sent to all of his MySpace friends (it can be read after the jump), actor Zach Braff addressed the confusion and the comedy’s upcoming move to ABC.

Dear friends,

Many of you have been understandably confused by the Fairy Tale episode of Scrubs serving as the series finale. It was not. I was not allowed to say it until today, but Scrubs will be moving to ABC for its final season. We are currently filming the 8th and final season. The true finale of the show will air on ABC in the fall. NBC merely promoted the Fairy Tale episode as the finale, as it was the last episode they owned.

Also, several of you were very confused by the fact that Dr. Kelso and Laverne were still working at the hospital in the Fairy Tale episode. Because of the writer’s strike, the last remaining episodes for NBC were aired out of order. This is why Dr. Kelso was still chief of medicine. That was not Laverne however, for those of you who have been following closely; it was a new nurse “Shirley” who no one thinks looks anything like Laverne except for JD.

Hope this clears some things up.

peace and love,
zb
