Hulu has dropped three episodes of the medical sitcom "Scrubs" due to the use of blackface.
"Good Morning America" can confirm that the streaming site has removed three episodes of the series which contain white actors in blackface at the request of ABC Studios and the show's creator, Bill Lawrence.

The removal comes just days after Tina Fey made the same request for "30 Rock," the sitcom she created and starred in.
When that news broke, Lawrence responded to a fan who suggested the same be done with "Scrubs."
