Synopsis

Martin Best is a brilliant surgeon who abruptly leaves his illustrious career in Boston to become the general practitioner in a quaint East Coast fishing village where he spent summers as a child. Unfortunately, Martin's blunt and borderline rude bedside manner rubs the quirky, needy locals the wrong way, and he quickly alienates the town, even though he's all they’ve got.

About 14h to watch every episode. An estimate: 20 episodes at the typical episode runtime of 42 minutes.

TMDB lists the next episode for Nov 10, 2026.
