Dave Franco joins 'Scrubs' - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Dave Franco ("Superbad") has joined ABC's comedy "Scrubs" as a regular.

On "Scrubs," which is shifting its setting to a medical school next season, Franco will play Cole, a charming, conservative, confidently stupid and incredibly entitled medical student whose family donated a wing to the school. With his arrogance and erroneous medical decisions he becomes an enormous irritant to Dr. Cox (John C. McGinley).

Franco's TV series credits include "Privileged," "Do Not Disturb" and "Greek."

So far, the casting for "TNG" as many are calling it has been pretty good. Eliza Coupe was great as Jo last season and am glad they made her a series regular.

As for Dave, I've never seen his work, but if his humor is along the lines of his brother's, it'll be interesting to see how it plays out in a Single-Camera Sitcom environment.
