Netflix has set the premiere date for its “Childrens Hospital” spinoff series “Medical Police,” a show about cops who are doctors — at the same time. Impressive, right?
The comedy — which comes from the creators of the cult Adult Swim series and is “building on the legacy of its predecessor” while tripling “as an action-packed thriller, a mystery-wrapped love story and, ultimately, a globetrotting comedy series” — will launch on the streaming service Jan. 10.
“‘Medical Police’ follows two American physicians (Erinn Hayes and Rob Huebel) stationed at a pediatric hospital in São Paulo, Brazil who unwittingly discover a civilization-threatening virus,” according to Netflix’s official description.
