The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy

Dr. Sleech and Dr. Klak run the second best hospital in the galaxy, and they treat patients you'd never see on Earth. The show follows these alien surgeons as they handle ridiculous and sometimes alarming cases, from parasites that feed on anxiety to illegal time loops and space-borne infections that complicate more than just anatomy. Episodes mix quick gags with longer setups, so a single medical prank can spiral into an ethical problem or a bizarre procedural puzzle. The tone stays comedic, weird and often dark, with the friendship between the two leads acting as the emotional anchor amid the chaos.

Released in 2024, the animated series was created by Cirocco Dunlap. It blends science fiction and comedy animation styles, and it’s aimed at viewers who like absurd premises and medical satire.

As of early 2026 the show hasn’t picked up major industry awards or big festival prizes. That said, its niche appeal and distinctive voice make it the sort of series programmers and critics sometimes notice during award seasons, so recognition could come later.

The series has begun to attract a modest but vocal online audience, especially among fans of offbeat sci-fi comedy. Conversations on forums and social platforms often highlight its strange case concepts and the oddball chemistry between the doctors, and clips circulate among viewers who enjoy dark humor and surreal settings.

Critical and audience reactions are mixed to positive, with a vote average of 6.8 out of 10 from 36 votes. Reviewers tend to praise the inventiveness of the medical scenarios and the rapport between the leads, while some note that the humor and pacing won’t land for everyone. Themes include professional rivalry, the absurdity of bureaucracy in high-stakes environments, and ethical gray areas in medicine, all filtered through a surreal, comedic lens.
