The campaign frames original leads as senior doctors mentoring a new generation, previewing a dual broadcast, next-day streaming rollout.

Overview

  • ABC released new Season 2 teaser art and a promo spot that stylizes Sacred Heart like the board game Operation to set a playful, nostalgia-driven tone.
  • Zach Braff, Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke are confirmed to return in principal roles alongside newcomer Ava Bunn as part of the core cast.
  • The revival is presented as a 30-minute comedy that repositions J.D., Turk and Elliot as established doctors who mentor a new group of trainees at Sacred Heart.
  • The series will launch with a two-episode broadcast premiere on ABC followed by next-day streaming on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+, reflecting a dual distribution plan.
