How to Get Cast in FOX’s TV Series “Best Medicine”

Date:

Best Medicine is an upcoming scripted television series from FOX, blending medical drama with offbeat comedy in a heartfelt small-town setting. Starring Josh Charles as Dr. Martin Best, the series is set to film from July 28 through December 22, 2025, and is being produced by Choice Films and Fox Square Productions, Inc.

Described as a U.S. adaptation inspired by the beloved British show Doc Martin, Best Medicine promises a quirky ensemble, rich character development, and plenty of emotional depth—all wrapped in a comedic format.


Series Premise: A Doctor in the Wrong Place at the Right Time

In Best Medicine, we meet Dr. Martin Best, a brilliant but emotionally distant surgeon who abruptly leaves his high-profile career in Boston. He returns to a quiet East Coast fishing village where he spent childhood summers, taking over as the town’s only general practitioner.

But Martin’s blunt and borderline rude bedside manner doesn’t sit well with the quirky and demanding locals. Despite his unmatched medical expertise, his lack of social grace quickly alienates the town—even though they need him more than they know.

Unbeknownst to them, Martin is also grappling with a debilitating phobia and deep psychological scars that make emotional intimacy nearly impossible. Over time, the very townspeople he tries to push away might become the unexpected support system he never knew he needed.


Main Cast & Creative Team

  • Josh Charles (The Good Wife, Sports Night) stars as the emotionally closed-off Dr. Martin Best.
  • Executive Producers include:
    • Liz Tuccillo
    • Ben Silverman
    • Rodney Ferrell
    • Mark Crowdy
    • Philippa Braithwaite
  • Produced in association with Choice Films and Fox Square Productions, Inc.

🌟 Why Best Medicine Is a Must-Watch (and Must-Audition)

  • Character-Driven Storytelling: A flawed lead with a strong emotional arc gives actors plenty to work with.
