Here's the official synopsis:
"'The Second Best Hospital in the Galaxy' follows Dr. Sleech (Hsu) and Dr. Klak (Palmer) —aliens, best friends, and intergalactically renowned surgeons—as they tackle anxiety-eating parasites, illegal time loops, and deep-space STIs. In Season 1, doctors Sleech and Klak take on a highly dangerous and potentially groundbreaking case and, in doing so, put existence itself in jeopardy. Although considering their dismal personal lives, oblivion might be an improvement."
This spacey project has bolstered its talented workforce with additional voice acting duties by Tracee Ellis Ross ("American Fiction"), Bowen Yang ("Saturday Night Live"), Abbi Jacobson ("Broad City"), Jay Ellis ("Top Gun: Maverick"), Andrew Dismukes ("Saturday Night Live"), Lennon Parham ("Minx"), Gary Anthony Williams ("Night Court"), and cult director John Waters ("Hairspray").
