St. Denis Medical is a comedy set at an underfunded hospital in Oregon. Created by Justin Spitzer and Eric Ledgin, the show features a mockumentary format. The cast includes Wendi McLendon-Covey, David Alan Grier, Allison Tolman and Josh Lawson.
The pilot sees Tolman’s Alex, a supervising nurse, aiming to get out of work — after her shift ends — to see her daughter in a school play. But those who work with her know that when a crisis hits the hospital — which seems to be about every day — Alex is the last one to leave.
