Laverne’s Scrubs Season 6 death only happened because Bill Lawrence thought the show was ending
Lawrence was wrong and Scrubs season 7 was greenlit
Scrubs season 6 episode 15 “My Long Goodbye,” featured the death of Laverne Roberts. The stark installment was built around the premise of the other employees at Sacred Heart Hospital taking the time to say goodbye to their comatose colleagues. Showrunner Bill Lawrence isn’t in the habit of killing off major characters, so Laverene’s passing was a big moment. However, Lawrence only included the story because he was under the impression that Scrubs Season 6 would be the sitcom’s final outing, and he wanted to include an impressive storyline to mark the occasion.
The showrunner talked about the error in judgment on the Scrubs Check back podcast, Fake doctors, real friends.
The showrunner talked about the error in judgment on the Scrubs Check back podcast, Fake doctors, real friends. Unfortunately for Laverne actor Aloma Wright, Scrubs Season 7 was green. Lawrence’s creative choice ultimately meant that the cast was a member when the sitcom returned for another set of episodes. As a result, The upcoming Scrubs Revival also will not have nurse Roberts. Wright briefly reprized the role before the show ended, but only in a flashback.
Laverne actor Aloma Wright may yet appear in Scrubs season 10
Wright was recast as Nurse Shirley in Scrubs season 7
Scrubs Could make creative use of flashbacks to include Aloma Wright in the reunion, but the cast is much older now, so there would be a timeline issue to consider if that avenue is explored. Interestingly, there is actually a much easier way Aloma Wright can return in Scrubs Season 10. Still Scrubs season 7’s renewal, Lawrence’s regret at killing off Laverne led the showrunners to offer Wright a new part. In the season after Laverne’s death, Wright returned as Nurse Shirley – who looked, acted and sounded exactly like Laverne – although she had a new hairstyle.
Wright’s return was played for laughs, with no one but Zach Braff’s John “JD” Dorian able to see the striking resemblance.
Wright’s return was played for laughs, with no one but Zach Braff’s John “JD” Dorian able to see the striking resemblance between their late colleague and the hospital’s new addition to the nursing staff. After declaring it was like, “Look at Laverne again” JD gave her the clumsy nickname of, “Laverne again“ Which no one but Braff’s character liked. So, if Aloma Wright comes back for those Scrubs Revival, playing Shirley is her most realistic option. It may not be ideal, but it’s better than not having the actor involved at all.

The Scrubs revival will need to explain Aloma Wright’s new character to casual fans
Shirley’s presence in Scrubs 10 may be disorienting for those who haven’t closely followed the sitcom
A reunion of available Scrubs Cast members wouldn’t be complete without Aloma Wright, even if she wasn’t playing Laverne. What’s about is the meta nature of her return to the show can be confusing for those who are aware of Scrubss original run but perhaps are not loyal viewers. They recognize Wright, but don’t understand why she has a different name or why only JD is aware of Laverne and Shirley’s shared faces. so, Scrubs 10 Will Need To Find A Way To Clearly Explain That Aloma Wright Is Not Reprising Her Role Of LaverneBut the lesser known Shirley.

In the world of ScrubsShirley has no ties to Laverne – familial or otherwise. The creative casting move is a bit odd, even for a crazy sitcom like this Scrubs. However, it is now established as part of the world’s canon, so Retelling Shirley’s backstory would feel like something of an easy way out. With so little information about the show’s revival, it’s unclear to what extent the cast will be reunited. Hopefully all the main and supporting actors are involved, which would include Aloma Wright playing her nemesis Scrubs Character.
