In Netflix's new comedy series Medical Police, Erinn Hayes and Rob Huebel lead a cast that includes numerous other actors reprising their roles from the Adult Swim short-form series Childrens Hospital. This spinoff focuses on two doctors who secretly work undercover as special government agents.
Medical Police season 1 begins in Sao Paolo, Brazil, as Dr. Lola Spratt and Dr. Owen Maestro serve an American expatriate community. After a deadly virus threatens to take over the world, they're recruited by the CDC's covert operations team known as G932. The doctor duo travel across the world to investigate the virus, and gather intel from both past associates and underworld figures. In Medical Police season 1, situational humor and comedic wordplay build to a full-circle twist.
