Now the trailer for the second season has arrived and it has fans already talking about how excited they are to see it return.

In the trailer fans get to see the team get up to their usual antics, however, when Dr Cox ends up being a patient the pressure is on JD to find out what's wrong and treat him successfully.

Within just days of the trailer being released on YouTube, it's racked up more than 4.4. million views and attracted hundreds of comments.

One fan wrote: 'How they captured the exact same vibe and voice as the old seasons needs to be studied.'

Another said: '5 months between seasons? What is this, 2001? They managed to not only capture the magic that was the original show, but also the filming and release schedule of the early 00's? Bravo!' (sic)

One more fan commented: 'I already want to see a season three and I do hope that we get to see JD’s kids'.
