Damon Wayans To Guest Star On NBC’s ‘St. Denis Medical’; First Photo

There will be an In Living Color reunion on the set of NBC‘s St. Denis Medical. Damon Wayans (My Wife and Kids, Lethal Weapon) will reunite with his former In Living Color castmate David Alan Grier in a guest-starring role on the Season 3 premiere.

Wayans will play Dr. Highland, a charming but pompous new doctor at St. Denis. He is filling in while Ron (Grier) is recovering from surgery. All the patients and staff (besides Alex) have fallen head over heels for him and his insights. Check out a first-look photo above.

Created by Justin Spitzer and Eric Ledgin, St. Denis Medical spotlights an underfunded, understaffed Oregon hospital where the dedicated doctors and nurses try their best to treat patients while maintaining their own sanity.

In Season 2, after receiving a large private donation, hospital administrator Joyce (Wendi McLendon-Covey) bites off more than she can chew while her employees navigate staff shortages, office conflicts and their own personal lives.

Season 3 picks up with romantic entanglements and personal struggles complicating relationships in the Emergency Department, pushing some St. Denis employees to the brink.  

The ensemble cast also includes Allison Tolman, Josh Lawson, Kahyun Kim, Mekki Leeper and Kaliko Kauahi.

Ledgin serves as showrunner and executive producer. Spitzer, Simon Heuer, Bridget Kyle and Vicky Luu also executive produce. Universal Television, a division of Universal Studio Group, is the studio. Series is produced by More Bees, Inc. and Spitzer Holding Company.

Season 3 of St. Denis Medical premieres on Monday, November 2 at 8 p.m. on NBC. Seasons one and two are available to stream on Peacock. 

Wayans is repped by Verve.
