St. Denis Medical Cast, EP Weigh In on Serena-Matt Tension, Tease ‘Off the Rails' Season Finale — Watch
Just six episodes into its freshman run, St. Denis Medical's strong vital signs earned it a quick Season 2 renewal. But before the NBC comedy's hospital staff can make it to a completely new season, they'll have to survive a finale that, as star Allison Tolman puts it, sends things 'off the rails' at the titular medical center.
'The finale of this season is the most 'oh no' [that nurse Alex feels],' Tolman recently told TVLine at the SCAD TVfest in Atlanta. 'And it's warranted. A lot of times, when Alex is worked up about something, it's like, 'Girl, calm down.' But in the finale, things really have gone off the rails, and her high alert is warranted.'

Tolman, whose full interview with us can be viewed in the video above, couldn't share much more about what transpires at the end of Season 1. We suspect, though, that the hospital's financial situation — a season-long issue for the underfunded St. Denis — might play a significant role as the inaugural season winds down, as co-showrunner Eric Ledgin hinted.
'It's not that they're about to go under. It's more that they can't have any nice things,' Ledgin tells us. 'They never have enough to go any further, and Joyce's hope is so far outsized compared to what they actually have. That's a tension we play with a lot in the first season, and all I'll say is we won't necessarily be playing that same tension in the second season.'
And while we're on the subject of tension: There's been a little of that — of the will-they-won't-they variety, to be more specific — between nurses Serena and Matt, no?
'There's a long way to go, in Season 1, even,' admitted Kahyun Kim, who plays Serena on the sitcom, adding that more 'complex feelings' are in store for the colleagues as Season 1 continues.
Ledgin was ever-so-slightly more forthcoming about the Serena-Matt situation, promising that 'something will happen' between the pair in upcoming episodes.
'There will be movement. There won't be nothing,' Ledgin teased, before adding with a laugh, 'Is that vague enough?'
St. Denis Medical airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on NBC.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo
'Real Housewives of Atlanta' star Brit Eady sues Bravo over explicit photo Show Caption Hide Caption Phaedra Parks returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta Phaedra Parks is returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta after being gone for 6 seasons. Fox - 5 Atlanta Brit Eady is taking Bravo to court over the explicit photo incident that prompted Kenya Moore's exit from "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." Eady has filed a $20 million lawsuit against Bravo, NBC and the production companies Truly Original and Endemol Shine North America, accusing the defendants of defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress, false light, sexual harassment and hostile work environment. USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Bravo, NBCUniversal and Eady for comment. The lawsuit centers around an incident featured in an April episode of the reality show in which Moore revealed explicit photos, supposedly of Eady, on poster boards. The moment resulted in Moore being removed from the show, and the episode ended with a disclaimer that "based on Kenya's behavior, the decision was made to cease filming with her this season." 'Real Housewives of Atlanta': Reality show airs Kenya Moore's explicit photo incident that led to exit Eady says that the photos were not of her but that the episode falsely suggested they were. "The manner in which the episode was aired falsely yet unmistakably implied that the graphic sexual photograph presented by the cast member depicted (Eady)," the lawsuit said. "On information and belief, defendants knew that the photograph did not depict (Eady), or, at the least, were reckless or grossly negligent in failing to learn that the photograph did not depict (Eady). The lawsuit also alleged that the network refused to show Eady the photo before the episode aired. She accused the defendants of contributing to a "hostile work environment" and subjecting her to "unwelcome, offensive, and sexualized behavior and comments based on her gender by requiring her to continue working in an environment in which she had been subject to a gendered attack, creating an inferior condition or privilege of employment because of her gender." The suit calls for the episode to be removed from public platforms. Kenya Moore suspended indefinitely: She's off 'Real Housewives' amid 'revenge porn' allegations The same day that Eady's lawsuit was filed, Moore confirmed on X that she would not be taking part in a "Real Housewives of Atlanta" reunion taping happening on June 5. "Please know I take full accountability for my actions and deeply apologize to all those affected including Brittney, the cast, crew, guests and viewers," she said. "I look forward to seeing you all back on Bravo soon." Contributing: Taijuan Moorman

Bryson Wilkinson, 18, was working a shift at a tree removal company on Wednesday, May 21, when he got caught in a rope and ultimately lost his foot and part of his right leg in the accident, according to local NBC affiliate WECT. 'I thought it was over for me. I thought that was about to be the end of my life,' Wilkinson said. Gary Caldwell, a resident of the area, rushed to apply a tourniquet and Wilkinson was taken to a local hospital to undergo an amputation. Just two days later, Caldwell found himself at Novant Health New Hanover Regional Medical Center in Wilmington, down the hall from Wilkinson, according to local station WRAL.
