ABC's revamped "Scrubs" will return to the network airwaves Dec. 1.

Show, which will undergo an overhaul this year as the focus shifts to a med school setting, will air Tuesdays at 9 p.m. starting that night.

For its launch, "Scrubs" will also air a second original episode that night, at 9:30 p.m. Sophomore laffer "Better Off Ted" returns the following week, Dec. 8, at 9:30 p.m.

On Dec. 1, "Scrubs" 2.0 will bow behind the animated holiday special "Prep & Landing," which will air at 8:30 that night.

"Prep & Landing," which coincidentally features the voice of "Scrubs" vet Sarah Chalke, is the first-ever ABC special from Walt Disney Animation.

New "Scrubs" stars returnees John C. McGinley and Donald Faison as well as Eliza Coupe, Michael Mosley, Kerry Bishe and Dave Franco. Original series star Zach Braff is also set to appear in several episodes.
