 Abigail Spencer Joins Cast Of Fox Medical Comedy ‘Best Medicine’

 Abigail Spencer (Suits, How I Met Your Mother) is joining Josh Charles as
leads of the new Fox medical comedy Best Medicine, based on the popular
British series Doc Martin. Production will take place this summer in
upstate New York.

The irony is, I barely remember her on AMC (she was on c. 2000, so that was 25 years ago!).
But what did she do on Lifetime?! I seriously don't remember her doing anything on Lifetime.

Best Medicine is a one-hour comedy series that centers on Martin Best
(Charles), 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, especially local school teacher Louisa Glasson (Spencer); however,
tenacity is the creed of everyone in their small village, and the people
who live there may be exactly what the doctor ordered.
