NBC’s mockumentary comedy “St. Denis Medical” continues to deliver its unique brand of medical mayhem this Tuesday. “Sometimes It’s Good to Be Cautious,” suggests a focus on careful consideration and measured responses. But if you’ve seen even a single episode of this show, you know that caution is often thrown out the window faster than a used bandage.
This week, doctors Bruce and Alex butt heads over their differing medical opinions concerning a young athlete. Whose diagnosis is correct? And whose ego will take the biggest hit? Meanwhile, Joyce discovers she’s in a surprising competition with none other than Tiger Woods, a rivalry that plays out in the hallowed pages of their alumni magazine. Because, of course it does.
And in what could be a truly disastrous moment, Matt and Serena nearly drop an unconscious patient. If there were an award for “Most Likely to Cause an Accidental Code Blue,” these two would be strong contenders.
“St. Denis Medical” excels at capturing the absurdity of everyday life in a hospital setting, populated by quirky characters who, despite their flaws and questionable decision-making, are strangely endearing. Tune in to NBC on Tuesday, March 25th at 8:00 PM for another dose of medical mishaps and awkward humor.
