St. Denis Medical

I'd say right now the show is about a 5-6/10 for me- however, I gave it a 7 because it has a ton of potential. There are likable characters, good jokes, and a decent comedic format; I think it just needs a little time to truly find its footing.

I think the negative comments are forgetting that a lot of shows, particularly sitcoms, need some time to develop. Too many people expect instant gratification and aren't willing to stick it out, despite the fact that most shows benefit from some time/world & character building.

The negative reviews are comparing this to The Office, Parks & Rec, etc., while completely ignoring the fact that those shows weren't great in their first seasons either. Fortunately, they were given a chance and they became some of the most iconic shows out there. I think this show also deserves a chance. It might not be amazing now, but I could see it becoming great with time. Hopefully the network gives it a chance!

I turned this on because I was such a fan of Superstore. It is definitely a different tone than Superstore, but this show is clearly going for something more meaningful. It's cute, it's funny, it's about caring, and it's about community.

I think that it could qualify as a "Feel Good Comedy." It depicts relatable people as they struggle through the challenges of health care and caring for people that need help.

I have several family members who work in health care, and everything that I saw tracks with what I have seen so far in the show.

There are some new actors that I don't recognize, but there are some that I love (any cast from Superstore) seeing in new roles.

The show has great potential to be a hit. We have so few comedies on television today. It's nice and refreshing to see them on network television. Wendy McLendon-Covey is perfect in her role as the head director at St. Denis Medical Center in Oregon. Alison Tolman is effecetive as a nurse supervisor who has a family. Her character seems to be overly involved and so dedicated that she has trouble leaving to see her daughter perform in her school's Mamma Mia. David Alan Grier is fine here as a long term veteran doctor. There are some familiar faces here. I did enjoy the first two episodes and hope to see the rest.

Don't give up in the show. It's the best sitcom on NBC right now and that's not saying much. I would rather have more sitcoms than crime dramas.

I am impressed. It's well written, acted, & funny. I like how they handled current issues like reviews and "fat shaming" in the medical field. I'm especially happy to see Dr. Ron's character and nurse Alex is great opposite him. I do wish that nurse Matt wasn't so ridiculous though. He was home schooled, is from a small town, & is religious which you can see but he's a bit too dumb & clueless too often. This shifts things from real life & funny to silly which I think doesn't work as well for this show. Even with the nursing shortage & standards lowering no one would want him as an RN! Still, I look forward to this show.

Two episodes in, St. Denis Medical already feels like it's on the path to becoming one of the all-time greats, much like The Office. While the latter took its time to find its groove, we all know the heights it reached, and St. Denis Medical carries that same potential.

What stands out is how it mirrors the workplace humor and absurdity of The Office, but in a fresh, quirky medical setting. The characters, although still unfolding, hint at a dynamic chemistry that could become iconic. The humor feels sharp, relatable, and laden with just the right amount of awkwardness-a hallmark of great workplace comedies.

If you're a fan of shows that build a strong ensemble cast and weave comedy through everyday chaos, this is the series to watch. It's shaping up to be a unique yet familiar addition to the genre, and I, for one, am excited to see where it goes!

St. Denis Medical might just be the prescription for laughter we all need.
