Scrubs fans have been wondering if any more original cast members will return.

Fans are wondering if one of the most beloved characters from the original series of Scrubs will appear in the revival.

*Warning – this article contains minor spoilers for the revival series of Scrubs*

A few weeks into the new season, we have already been reacquainted with JD, Turk and Elliott played by Zach Braff, Donald Faison and Sarah Chalke respectively. Early episodes have also featured brief appearances by John C McGinley’s Dr Cox and Judy Reyes’ Carla.

Unfortunately they are not series regulars for the new iteration. Although the Todd has been a more regular occurrence.

The Janitor was an instant favourite in the original series. He appeared during the original eight season run and was played by Neil Flynn.

Most dedicated viewers will know that the writers first considered the role would actually be a part of the main character’s imagination but they soon abandoned that idea part way through the first season.

He did not appear in the ninth season, having apparently quit as soon as he found out his adversary JD no longer worked at the hospital. Behind the scenes, Flynn’s commitment to starring in the sitcom The Middle at the same time prevented him from appearing.

But will the Janitor appear in the new series? Here’s what we know so far.

Is the Janitor in the new series of Scrubs?

Yes, the Janitor is due to make an appearance in the series. A video shared to the show’s official Facebook page back in February confirmed it by sharing a short video. It was captioned: “Oh, he is SO back. Neil Flynn is scrubbing back in to Scrubs.”

However, the actor was not in his character’s usual attire. Instead of his maintenance overalls, he is seen wearing a suit. The person behind the camera drops a disposable coffee cup before Flynn enters the shot and says: “I’m not cleaning that.”

This clip sparked more than a 1,000 comments of fans sharing their excitement to the news. One person simply stated: “Best. News. Ever!” Another replied: “Shut the front door!?!!! I cannot waaaait!! I was getting so worried because I hadn’t seen him in any of the sneak peeks.”

However, six episodes have been released so far and Flynn is still to appear. The show seems in no rush to offer up more cameos as it spends time introducing fans to the new characters. This week, in the sixth instalment, only just saw the reintroduction of another beloved role – the stuffed dog Rowdy, who was revealed to now be living in JD’s office.

There only three episodes left of the revival series according to its Wikipedia page, so it should not be long before Flynn appears. We still don’t know for sure which one it will be though. It could be that the makers of the show are saving something special for the finale.

There’s a mysterious new character that fans are wondering about their true identity

The latest season of hit Marvel sequel series Daredevil Born Again has introduced a mysterious new villain.

While the show debuted last year, it quickly became a hit with fans and critics alike and succeeded in picking up where the Netflix version of the comic book character left off. It also meant that the character was now officially a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Its first season managed to score an impressive 87% on website Rotten Tomatoes and the premiere episode of the second season is streaming now on Disney+.

As episodes are released on a weekly basis, fans will see Mayor Wilson Fisk crush New York City underfoot as he hunts down public enemy number one, the Hell’s Kitchen vigilante known as Daredevil. But, beneath the horned mask, Matt Murdock will try to fight back from the shadows to tear down the Kingpin’s corrupt empire and redeem his home. Resist. Rebel. Rebuild.

The show sees most of the original cast return including Charlie Cox and Vincent D’Onofrio reprising their roles as Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk respectively. Also returning are Wilson Bethel as Bullseye and Deborah Ann Woll as Karen.

One newcomer to the show though has already made an impact just one episode in. That is the currently mysterious Mr Charles, played by Matthew Lillard. Lillard is famed for his previous roles in the Scream franchise as well as Five Nights At Freddy’s, the Scooby Doo live-action films and Prime Video series Cross.

But who is his character Mr Charles? Is he in the original Marvel comics? Here’s all you need to know. Beware some mild spoilers for Daredevil Born Again season 2, episode 1.

Who is Mr Charles?

In the show, we meet Mr Charles as he watches developments in New York on the TV from Washington. Daredevil has just sunk the North Star ship which was secretly smuggling weapons for Wilson Fisk and his associates. Turns out, Mr Charles is a middle man for these associates.

As a result, he gets a phone call and agrees he needs to address the matter personally. He arrives at Fisk’s office on his own terms, seemingly one of the very few people unafraid of the Kingpin. In a reference that may have missed the average viewer, the name Miss de Fontaine is mentioned and confirmed to be Mr Charles’ boss.

This means he works for Contessa Valentina Allegra de Fontaine, played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus and seen in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier , Black Widow , Black Panther: Wakanda Forever , and Thunderbolts. So this Mr Charles works for the CIA but is assisting de Fontaine with illicit operations.

However, some fans believe that this name could be a cover for who the character really is. According to Screen Rant there is a character called Mr Charles in Marvel lore but he only appeared in one issue, outside any main storyline or continuity. The issue was published in 2013 and he was a Roxxon Corporation employee who was in charge if illegal oil drillings in the ocean.

Fans will just have to wait as the series continues to see who Mr Charles really is and what he is truly up to. There is always the chance that he is an original character created for the show.

Fans of the Ryan Murphy drama were left ‘shattered’ by Episode 8, which featured Princess Diana’s death

The most recent instalment of Love Story: John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette has left audiences “shattered”.

Followers have been gripped by the new series for over a month, exploring the high-profile romance between its leading pair.

Created by Ryan Murphy, the drama unveils John (portrayed by Paul Anthony Kelly) and Carolyn’s (Sarah Pidgeon) relationship in the years preceding their tragic deaths on July 16, 1999, after a plane crash.

Episode 8 transports audiences to August 30, 1997, capturing the hours before Princess Diana’s heart-breaking death. The Royal passed away on the 31st after a car accident in Paris.

Carolyn is deeply affected by Princess Diana’s death because she had recently been seated behind her at Gianni Versace’s funeral. She also starts fearing for her own future under public scrutiny, whilst John appears to dismiss her worries, reports the Daily Record.

Viewers have been left heartbroken by the moving episode, with one X user posting: “I’m shattered beyond words this really broke me #lovestory.”

A second contributed: “#lovestory’s last episode might kill me, poor Carolyn,” whilst a third commented: “That was an unpleasant episode #LoveStory.”

And a fourth audience member remarked: “Just finished episode 8 of Love Story and I’m in tears. Those 42 minutes flew by and hit me so deeply I cried my eyes out.”

So when can audiences return to the drama?

How many episodes are left in Love Story Season 1?

As per usual, Love Story will be ready to stream on Disney+ next Friday (March 27). Unfortunately, that episode will be the series finale.

Entitled ‘Search and Recovery’, Episode 9 sees John and Carolyn battling to keep their relationship intact. As we witnessed in the series premiere, the pair will set off on a journey to Hyannis Port, accompanied by Carolyn’s sister Lauren (Sydney Lemmon).

We observed John clarifying that he would be piloting their small aircraft, before the show reverted back to the now-wedded couple’s initial encounter.

If the most recent episode left viewers teary-eyed, we can only image how emotional the responses to the series finale will be.

Love Story: John F Kennedy Jr and Carolyn Bessette ends with Episode 9, landing on Disney+ next Friday, March 27.
