Spoiler Alert: This post contains the season 1 finale of "This Place Is Everything for Us", NBC's "St. Dennis Medical" which is now available on Peacock.
As long as the ceiling doesn’t fall asleep, there will be significant changes in St. Denis Medical.
Throughout the season, hospital executive director Wendi McClendon-Covey went out of his way, often annoyed by his staff, bringing famous resources and resources to the Oregon Hospital. But in the Season 1 finale, she takes a significant step in that direction, paying $10 million for her plan, even as she immediately starts committing to the needs of others. But when she was haunted by her injured ankle, she spent quieter moments to confide in Ron (David Alan Grier), who had already achieved this with an unexpected vision (a birthing center opened in St. Dennis). this Destination for expectant mothers and families outside Portland.
Confirmed by Eric Ledgins, co-creator and performance host of "St. Dennis Medicine" type It's not just another fleeting fantasy of Joyce, but the way forward of the hospital in Season 2. “I don’t think that’s what I’m very interested in exploring when we get into season 2, when Joyce gets what she wants and is able to run,” he said.
The idea of birth center was originally proposed in the writer’s room and was a means to bring young families and new faces to the next season. But this is also a kind of personal experience that Ledgins can bring.
"My wife did what is now called 'non-traditional birth', but I think it's like the original tradition birth, it's doing nothing at home," he said. "We met a lot of midwives in the search for the right person. She had a Doula, and it's all zeitgeist for me, but was fascinated by the medical field. The birthing center felt like a great medical and tradition conference, so it could be fun for this show."
A new venture of this scale will also help Joyce guide all her bombing energy, because as Ryderkins puts it, “Essentially biocenters can have personality. They can have suites that contain themes, while hot tubs or small pools, just to plan and choose your typical, mundane department.”
Joyce may get what she wants, but her firm commitment to the hospital inadvertently inspired supervising nurse Allison Tolman (Allison Tolman), who ended up focusing on half of her own work-life balance that is often overlooked. In the finale, Alex technically accompanied her husband Tim (Kyle Bernheimer) for a vasectomy. But the storm can cause major staff shortages and maintenance issues (including the ceiling issues mentioned above), all attracting the reluctant Alex to the chaos. In the unexpected transformation, she leans towards Joyce, who told Alex that they were the same person because "this place is everything to us" and they can't refuse it. With a shocking realization, Alex handed the ins rope to Serena (Kahyun Kim) and rejoined Tim in time for a big moment.
While this is definitely a step forward for workaholic Alex, Leggins warns that a day without changing her lifestyle, she won’t be the new woman in Season 2 suddenly.
"I certainly don't want to reset her to the beginning, like she didn't learn anything," he said. "But I think, as someone with a certain qualities with Alex, you tell yourself a lot of times, 'Now, I get it.' But, you never really get it."
One thing that changed immediately in Season 2 is the dynamic between Serena and Matt (Mekki Leeper). Matt has been fascinated by the former travel nurse since the series premiered, and he has not received the prompts in the prompts - although everyone else has it. But a frustrated Val (Kaliko Kauahi) spilled beans as Serena flirted in trying to figure out what kind of girl Matt likes this week. While both do not acknowledge the sudden exposure of the finals, Leggins said he and the writing team have started making the Season 2 premiere and will not dance on the new development side.
“First of all, this is definitely this We're following a romantic story, and it was initially because of this little obsession that we could have decided to do the right thing is to get him over it quickly and keep moving forward, "I don't want to force it. I don't want to do paint- "Don't they?" "But it's really fun to have most of the mind of Matt in Season 1, and now I'm glad we've moved forward in the finale and it's really right to solve this problem directly in the premiere. So once we get back there's an update."
As for what viewers in the new season may see, this will also be 18 episodes, which is the limit for the St. Denis crew. Although Leggins admits it is a slippery slope, an evolution will see more of the family life of employees.
“I do want to leave the hospital for a few episodes this season and we planned something interesting,” he said. “But, as far as you really go home, it feels like once you do, now we’re in a world where staff are following them home and expanding the entire show of fake documentaries. So, I want to make more money. There’s still a lot of stories to tell within the scope of the hospital.”
Speaking of documentary staff, can the show explain why the camera observes St. Dennis? Again, Ledgins has some hesitation. In his opinion, he sees the documentary as something aired in a country fascinated by the American health care system. “I thought about having a producer’s voice on screen, like Australian or Swedish, or something like this doesn’t necessarily air here.”
But he also thinks that this does not necessarily need explanation. Twenty years later, the simulation format has been popularized and audiences are now trained. If anything, Ledgins hopes that if the crew debuted on screen, it wouldn't be his design.
"I keep saying that if we meet someone by chance, we should feel good," he said. "It's OK! I don't want to do it on purpose. If that happens, it happens. But then again, our crew is so great that it never happens. It almost disappoints me. I want them to be more clumsy."
