St. Denis Medical just received the best news!

The freshman medical comedy has been renewed for a second season by NBC. 

The “mockumentary about an underfunded, understaffed Oregon hospital where the dedicated doctors and nurses try their best to treat patients while maintaining their own sanity” made its two-episode debut in November 2024.

Since then, St. Denis Medical has reached 21.4 million total viewers.

Days after its network launch, the series streamed its breakout comedy on TikTok and YouTube from Friday, November 15, to Sunday, December 1.

The comedy has become NBC’s #1 new show for the 2024-25 season in the 18-49 demo, and it has received critical acclaim.

Not only has St. Denis Medical been nominated for a Critics Choice Award for Best Comedy Series, but David Alan Grier has received nominations for both a Critics Choice Award for Best Actor in a Comedy Series and an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actor in a Comedy Series.
