“Scrubs” star Sarah Chalke is returning to ABC with another comedy project. Chalke has joined the cast of “Freshmen,” which centers on the friendship of three freshmen members of Congress — two men and a woman — who live together in D.C. Chalke will play the woman, Jane, a beautiful, smart and funny freshman Congresswoman who was the VP at a multi-billion dollar company when she was just 28, and who won her district with the largest margin of any candidate since 1977. However, when it comes to men, Jane is a disaster waiting to happen. Greg Malins (“How I Met Your Mother”) wrote the script and is executive-producing with Arianna Huffington. Chalke, who played Dr. Elliot Reid on “Scrubs” for eight years, reprised the character in several episodes of the show this season. From Reuters | |

Long before she thought of starting a family with fiancé Jamie Afifi — the couple welcomed their first child, son Charlie Rhodes, on Christmas Eve — Sarah Chalke always knew motherhood was part of her life plan. As the middle daughter of parents who ran an adoption agency, there were always babies on her brain. “We had lots of babies around and I’ve always known I want to be a mother,” the Scrubs star tells Fit Pregnancy. Even so, Sarah didn’t believe the news when she first discovered she was expecting! Unable to “wrap my head around, that there [was] a baby living inside me,” she stocked up on pregnancy tests until she was truly convinced. “I did four pregnancy tests because I didn’t believe it, then there’s the ultrasound and they give you a due date!” “It all feels pretty miraculous, especially feeling the baby kick,” she notes, despite enduring a rough first trimester that included all-day nausea. Once over the bump, however, the rest of the time was a breeze, with the expectant mama taking time to indulge in her intense cravings! “When I first got pregnant, about a week before the morning sickness kicked in, I was just starving all the time,” she admits, adding that she often looked for “bland, simple foods like carbs” and salt-and-vinegar chips. Always up for a bit of ice-cream, Sarah quickly developed a newfound love of her sister’s baked goods. “I remember talking to my sister while she was making chocolate chip cookies and I just couldn’t stop thinking about them,” she laughs. And although the homestretch proved to be a bit nerve-wracking — “like I [was] cramming for exams” — the biggest surprise came in the form of sleep — or lack thereof! “The insomnia! I’ve never had trouble sleeping before,” she insists. “I [would] wake up and go and do stuff — check e-mails, clean closets, steam some milk and go back to sleep — I guess this is nesting, and also my body preparing to be up at night.” | |
