You will have a perfectly pleasant time with this comedy. It is uplifting and sharp even if it isn’t always laugh-out-loud funny.
-
“St. Denis” will conjure a smile but it doesn’t elicit belly laughs through three episodes made available for review.
-
Right now, it’s the kind of series that could build a silly, semi-fruitful C-story out of Matt (much like St. Denis Medical itself) failing to find a pulse. For a freshman broadcast comedy, maybe that’s enough.
-
For now, the show is a work in progress, but there is enough talent here for it to potentially grow into a reliable staple.
-
St Denis Medical (BBC One) is The Office meets Scrubs with a dash of St Elsewhere and Parks and Recreation, while unfortunately not being as good as any of them.
-
This is ultimately a show that prioritizes likability and “heart” to such a degree that it develops unintentionally smarmy undertones as it showcases its own decency and correctness.
