“Scrubs” is headed back to Tuesdays starting Jan. 6.

ABC says the sitcom will burn off four of its eigth-season episodes between 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. on Jan. 6 and Jan. 13 before settling into the 9 p.m. on subsequent Tuesdays.

No word yet on what goes in that 9:30 p.m. slot on Jan. 20.

This is first season on ABC for “Scrubs,” which began life at 9:30 p.m. on NBC’s autumn 2001 Tuesday lineup. It moved to Thursdays for its second and third seasons, then back to Tuesdays for its fourth and fifth, then back to Thursdays for its sixth and seventh.

In its new ABC timeslot, "Scrubs" will compete against this season's two top-rated freshman shows, CBS' "The Mentalist" and Fox's "Fringe," as well as viewer-heavy "The Biggest Loser."

ABC also confirms “Life On Mars” will move to 10 p.m. on Wednesdays (following “Lost”) starting Jan. 28 and that "Private Practice" is going to 10 p.m. Thursdays (following "Grey's Anatomy") starting Dec. 11.

ABC increased "Mars'" first-season order today from 13 to 17 episodes.
