SNL Alum John Higgins joins Scrubs for major role in Season 2
The world of television casting just got a little more hilarious, thanks to the arrival of some familiar comedic talent. John Higgins, the former Saturday Night Live writer and performer known for his sharp wit, has stepped into the world of J.D. Unser bisley with a major recurring role in the upcoming second season of the beloved revival, Scrubs.
Higgins, who is also a member of the popular comedy group Please Don’t Destroy, brings a unique energy that promises to inject some delightful chaos into the J.D. crew. He will be taking on the role of Grant, the new Chief Resident—a position that immediately signals potential friction and high-stakes drama.
Grant is envisioned as much more than just another character; he is set up to become a genuine thorn in the side of J.D., promising humorous conflicts and unexpected complications for the established group dynamic. Fans are already buzzing about how this new addition will shake up the familiar, comforting, yet often absurd world of Long Island University Hospital.
Bringing an actor with Higgins’ comedic timing and experience into the heart of Scrubs ensures that the renewed series continues to deliver the kind of witty, character-driven storytelling that made it a cultural phenomenon. With Grant on board, the second season is set to bring a fresh layer of comedic tension, proving once again why these characters resonate so deeply with audiences.
