Going to Extremes - Season 1

Medical students discover the quirks of Caribbean-island living at Croft University Medical School, run by a maverick medico who made a fortune with an invention and channeled the money into his personal teaching facility. An uneven blend of surf-and-turf comedy and straight drama, the series was filmed on location in Jamaica.
