TV Squad -- at least the part consisting of Joel Keller and myself -- recently visited the set of Scrubs, and were lucky enough to score interviews with Zach Braff (J.D.), Sarah Chalke (Elliot), and Bill Lawrence, the creator and executive producer. The hardest part about doing this video is not revealing who dies in the episode that was being shot. Seriously, it's driving me a bit mental. However, NBC lawyers and corporate drones would descend upon us so fast if we were to reveal which long-time cast member unfortunately passes away in the episode. So, we'll keep mum.

Scrubs has been shooting for six seasons now, and has an extremely tight cast and crew. However, they couldn't have been nicer to us, and we were treated to a fun day on set. In between takes, we picked up some interviews that drop hints at a possible seventh season, insights into the characters, and even some news about the Nobody's Watching show. Looks like a special on NBC is in the works!

Watch the video after the jump, and also check out AOL's gallery of photos from the very same set visit. We really want one of those Dr. Kelso paintings hanging in the palatial TV Squad lobby. He manages to look both regal and downtrodden at the same time.

ScrubsBill Lawrence, Sarah Chalke, and Zach Braff held a lunchtime session to promote the Scrubs musical episode. Lots of funny lines and good information came out of it, but if you read our interview with Lawrence, you heard most of it already (he even quoted from our interview -- at least I think he did -- during the session). But he did offer two new pieces of information, about his current show and his "other" show, Nobody's Watching:

First, the guys from Nobody's Watching will do a 30-minute live special for NBC, where they may pretend to take over the network for 30 minutes. Stay tuned for more information on that.

As far as the Scrubs musical episode is concerned, Bill told me that the songs from the episode will be made available on iTunes, essentially so Touchstone can recoup some of the costs of the more-expensive-than-usual episode. So if you like "Guy Love," you can have it on your iPod for all eternity, likely starting tomorrow.

Bill LawrenceIt doesn't take much to get Scrubs creator Bill Lawrence going. I fully intended to speak to him only about his show's musical episode, which airs tomorrow at 9. But Bill managed to launch into monologues on current shows, the network testing system, Scrubs' weird history, and other topics. But he dropped a lot of interesting information, some of which I mentioned a couple of days ago.

For a guy who isn't quite 38 yet, Lawrence has had quite a successful career. He already has two long-running shows under his belt (he co-created Spin City in 1996), and has been involved in a number of other series. Included in his credits is the Internet phenomenon Nobody's Watching, which scored an NBC development deal after the pilot was "leaked" to YouTube.

After the jump is the freewheeling phone interview I conducted with Lawrence last week. Keep tuned to TV Squad for a Scrubs set visit video, which will be posted next month.

Nobody's Watching gets a haircut.What would Christmas be without a new video from Derrick and Will (Taran Killam and Paul Campbell) of the pilot-turned web sensation-turned television show (one day) Nobody's Watching. This time around Derrick gets a haircut. But not any haircut. No, this cut is in the style of a favorite sitcom character, chosen by visitors at the guys' official website.

The character chosen? I'll give you a hint: Ha! I kill me! Okay, that may be a bit obscure. The favorite sitcom character chosen was Alf, who had a hit show back in the late 1980's. Derrick not only gets his hair cut in the style of Alf, but he hair that is cut gets pasted on his eyebrows to give him that fluffy, alien puppet look.

Anyway, you can see the haircut in all of its glory after the jump.

We've got an exclusive new video from the guys of Nobody's Watching for you, hot off the presses. Well, hot off the camera. Or video recorder. Or whatever.

This time Will and Derrick are giving us a 90 second look at a full ten seasons of Friends; who needs that big honkin' box set?

First we gave you the preview, now here's the real thing. Derrick and Will of Nobody's Watching put all other Lost fans to shame in their latest video below. Can you spot the special guest they were able to score? If you guessed Jorge Garcia, I feel sorry for you.

The folks of Nobody's Watching have sent along a teaser preview of what's coming up later this week on their website. Here's an exclusive preview of their new video where the guys pray to the gods of Lost. Says Derrick Keith: "It's not just the guys holding hands and praying. I promise."
