“St. Denis Medical,” NBC’s new mockumentary sitcom set in the chaotic world of an underfunded Oregon hospital, delivers another dose of its particular brand of medical mayhem this week. The episode, titled “50 cc’s of Kindness,” finds the staff grappling with a range of predicaments, from gang-related hospital drama to a doctor’s crippling fear of needles.

Ron, ever the hapless mediator, finds himself caught between two warring prison inmates, remnants of a previous gang fight. Meanwhile, Serena tackles a different kind of medical emergency: Bruce’s severe needle phobia. One can only imagine the comedic potential as Serena attempts to coax the terrified doctor into confronting his fear.

Elsewhere, Joyce’s romantic life takes an unexpected turn when she develops feelings for a prison guard. It’s a safe bet this burgeoning romance will unfold with the same awkward charm that characterizes most workplace sitcom relationships.

“St. Denis Medical” airs Tuesday, January 14, 2025, at 8:00 PM on NBC.
