Medical Police
They’re cops. And doctors. At the same time!
Created by Rob Corddry, Krister Johnson, David Wain, Jonathan Stern
On Netflix
A frenetic, absurdist comedy that parodies spy thrillers and medical dramas through slapstick and deadpan satire, prioritizing comedic chaos over coherence.
Doctors Owen Maestro and Lola Spratt leave Children's Hospital and join a secret arm of the CDC to investigate and destroy a deadly global virus.
