A pilot for the medical sitcom This Might Hurt (which will include some improv) has been picked up by FOX. The series will focus on a private practice where a pediatrician, an internist and an OB-GYN work together -- though presumably not at the same time, and not on the same person.
The new series was created by actor (You, Me, and Dupree; the failed CBS pilot, Giants of Radio), writer (The Wayne Brady Show) and director (Giants of Radio) Jason Winer, who, according to Variety, got the idea by spending time in a doctor's office. Also, he correctly points out that pain is funny.
