St. Denis Medical: next episode, trailer, cast, plot and everything we know about the TV comedy

Allison Tolman, Kahyun Kim, Mekki Leeper, David Alan Grier, Kaliko Kauahi, Josh Lawson and Wendi McLendon-Covey in St. Denis Medical.

Hospitals have always been a popular place to set a TV show, from heart-pounding dramas like ER to more comedic stays like Scrubs. Both of those shows aired (initially) on NBC, and now the network is back at the hospital with a brand-new show, a comedy titled St. Denis Medical.

In addition to being set in a hospital, St. Denis Medical also brings back another popular format that NBC is well known for — the mockumentary. NBC's two most famous examples of the mockumentary series were The Office and Parks & Rec, both of which were adored by viewers. Can St. Denis Medical use the formula to become a hit itself?

Here is everything you need to know about St. Denis Medical.

St. Denic Medical next episode

St. Denis Medical is airing a new episode on Tuesday, November 19, at 8 pm ET/PT on NBC. The episode is titled "Weird Stuff You Can't Explain," here is the official synopsis:

"When Ron hexes the day to prove superstitions aren't real, things at the hospital start getting weird. Joyce and Matt discover an employee's secret."

In order to watch St. Denis Medical when it airs on NBC, you're going to need access to the broadcast channel, which is available either through a traditional pay-TV provider, a TV antenna or a live TV streaming service like Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV and YouTube TV.
