‘Best Medicine’ Season 2 Episode 3 Release Date, Time and Where to Watch ‘Crate Expectations’

Fans of ‘Best Medicine’ have a new date to mark on their calendars, as the third episode of the second season is approaching. Titled ‘Crate Expectations’, it is scheduled to air on Tuesday, October 6, promising another round of the quirky chaos that has made the Fox dramedy a favorite.

If you’re trying to figure out the timing, channel, and what Martin will face this time, this guide provides all the essential details for the third episode of ‘Best Medicine’. Here’s everything you need to know before the floating crate race kicks off.

‘Crate Expectations’ will air on Fox on Tuesday, October 6. This episode follows the second episode, ‘Breakin’ In Is Hard to Do’, which premieres on September 29. This means viewers can enjoy a consistent weekly schedule following the early premiere event.

New episodes air weekly from 8 to 9 p.m. ET and PT on Tuesdays, right before the latest season of ‘Doc’. West Coast viewers can also tune in at the same time, eliminating the need for a delayed broadcast.

The schedule continues smoothly with the fourth episode, ‘No Place Like Om’, set for October 13. Additionally, the season has expanded to 14 episodes, up from the original order of 12, following the Upfronts announcement.

To watch ‘Best Medicine’, the simplest option is to catch it live on Fox during its regular Tuesday night slot. New episodes will be available for streaming the following day on Hulu and Disney+ after their network debut, making the third episode accessible on those platforms on Wednesday, October 7.

For those who missed the season premiere, there are options available. The season began with a special early premiere on Sunday, September 20, and that episode re-aired in its regular timeslot on September 22. Streaming makes it easy to catch up before the crate race.

As for Netflix, the first season was added in August, well after its finale, and the second season is expected to follow a similar timeline if it goes to Netflix. Predictions suggest the second season could arrive on Netflix around April or May of next year. For those wanting new episodes now, Hulu and Disney+ are the go-to platforms.

The upcoming episode, ‘Crate Expectations’, promises pure small-town hilarity. The residents of Port Wenn will compete in their annual floating crate race, a local tradition that thrives in a fishing village filled with brewing feuds.

Martin, of course, cannot resist getting involved. He attempts to provide crucial medical advice when three men receive positive pregnancy tests, a scenario ripe with comedic potential given his blunt bedside manner.

The competitive aspect is also highlighted, as former record holder Sarah trains Peter in the art of crate racing. Sarah, played by Annie Potts, is Martin’s aunt, so expect her no-nonsense attitude to shine through.

So far in Season 2, the new episodes have made quite a splash. Martin continues to grapple with his blood phobia while a mermaid washes ashore, leaving the town in awe. Andrea Martin guest stars as Judith, a well-meaning local who creates chaos while on prescribed oxygen.

The second episode shifts gears to a mystery as the Port Wenn pharmacy is robbed, including critical medication for Louisa. Martin deduces that the thief is in desperate need of his help, while Greg and George clash with a rival food truck owner during this episode.

Martin also faces a significant challenge from the Maine Medical Board after Glendon reported him for allowing Elaine to draw blood without a license. The series is an American adaptation of the British show ‘Doc Martin’, featuring Josh Charles as Dr. Martin Best.

The audience is clearly engaged, with the first season averaging around six million viewers per episode and gaining momentum each week. The series premiere attracted 10.8 million multiplatform viewers, marking it as Fox’s most streamed debut in nearly three years. With a crate race and a trio of puzzling pregnancy tests on the horizon, will Sarah’s coaching lead Peter to victory, or will Martin’s medical advice steal the spotlight?
