Tonight at 8p on Fox, Best Medicine goes back in time. How far back? To the beginning…of Port Wenn. The entire town takes part in the reenactment of the Battle of Port Wenn, when the founders fought against the British.
I should say everyone, but Martin (Josh Charles) takes part in it. Therefore, Parker (Jack Cutmore-Scott) steps into the role of the doctor. Is that the only way the monitoring doctor wants to replace Martin? After all, he is dating Louisa (Abigail Spencer), whom Martin is secretly pining for.
There are two things that are given for every episode of the Medical Soap. The first being Port Wenn does something only Port Wenn would do. The second being that there will be a mystery ailment that will affect at least one person in the town.
Both of those are true, and Martin has to figure out what is ailing several of the residents. Could it be something that is as old as the town itself?
That is not all that is going on. Elaine (Cree) and Al (Carter Shimp) are getting ready to leave their home for New York, and they are afraid to leave Al’s father (John DiMaggio) all alone. Therefore, they are trying to find someone to set him up with. However, there might be more to their efforts.
All of that leads to a moment you don’t want to miss…
If you are not watching Best Medicine, you are missing out on a show that has cured my Tuesday blues.
Then at 9p, Doc takes care of a patient who has been in a coma for four years. Can he ever wake up from it?
