‘Doc Martin’ Gets U.S. Adaptation ‘Best Medicine’ Starring Josh Charles at Fox

"Doc Martin," the beloved British dramedy about an eccentric doctor, is making its big-screen comeback in the U.S. with "Best Medicine," a one-hour comedy series starring Josh Charles as Dr. Martin Best—a sharp-toothed surgeon who ends up being the town’s general practitioner in a small East Coast coastal community. Despite his renowned medical skills and soft spot for the townspeople, Martin’s no-nonsense demeanor alienates everyone around him, including those closest to him. The show is set to air during the 2025-2026 season, and execs at Fox praised the series’ blend of humor, heart, and quirky town life as a potential hit with U.S. audiences.
