Zach Braff in for huge payday soon

LOS ANGELES, California (Hollywood Reporter) -- Zach Braff is about to land a big payday, as long as his hospital comedy "Scrubs" gets renewed by NBC for a seventh season.

The actor has cut a one-year deal with "Scrubs" producer ABC TV Studio that will pay him about $350,000 per episode for the 2007-08 season of "Scrubs," sources said. Each season consists of about two dozen episodes.

Braff's deal is contingent on NBC picking up the show for a seventh year, which is expected, notwithstanding its lowly season-to-date viewership of 6.9million people, according to Nielsen Media Research.

If so, Braff's new deal would place him among the highest-paid male actors on television, alongside "Two and a Half Men" star Charlie Sheen, whose paycheck also is in the $350,000-per-episode range.

No way, this show rocks and is stil one of the best shows on TV. NBC has been fucking around woth it so much that some people don't even know when it is on. I am a huge Zach fan, glad he go the paycheck he deserves. Garden Sate was great and I will see any of his work that come out.

I used to love Scrubs, and it's still okay, but nothing more.

As happens with a lot of programmes it peaked, and now it's nowhere close to what it was.

Which still makes it better than most of the trash on TV I suppose!!

I think its fricken funny....I watch it every night at 11:30 on fox.

I set my DVR to record every Scrubs episode that airs, which is about 4 a day on various channels here. Within the past few months I'd say I've seen about 80% of the episodes, since I never watched it previously.

I love that show. The cast is great.

Yeah, I have them all on DVD, I find it hilarious.

I watch those DVD's all the time. I have all fours seasons, and once I am done with the seasons, I start them all over again.
