Madical Treatment

Madical Treatment (stylized as MADical Treatment) is an animated dark comedy series created by James Wright, which follows the adventures of an eccentric and quite unintelligent trainee doctor and his quote-unquote "friends".
== Plot ==
Idi, a teenager recently graduated from a medical college, gets hired by Dr. Jonesy in a Ballican Hospital, where he tries to cure patients' pain, but ultimately fails every single time.
== Characters ==
* Irving Winston Ottowski (nicknamed Idi Otto) - an eccentric multi-doctor who was recently hired into a Ballican Hospital. He is voiced by James Arnold Taylor.
* Dr. Richard "Dick" Jonesy - an assistant of the hospital's owner, who hired Idi just because he liked watching him do foolish things. He is voiced by James Wright.
* Jon - Idi's college friend and assistant. He is voiced by Billy West.
* Millie Prettyhead - sweet, but naive assistant of Dr. Jonesy. She is voiced by Liliana Mumy.

== Production ==
The show was announced to be in the works by James Wright on November 25, 2010, under the working title Eccentric Medics. Wright said on the show: 
The show was officially greenlit on July 10, 2011 under its current title, and the first look on the show was uploaded on his YouTube channel the same day, as well as the Adult Swim channel. Three days later, when asked on when will the show premiere, Wright answered that it may come out "in the next year". 
On August 16, 2012, Wright announced that the first 10 episodes of the show have been completed, and that the show will premiere in April 2013.
On February 24, 2013, the show's full trailer was released, with the airdate being April 27, 2013.
On May 7, 2014, Wright announced that the entire show has finally finished shooting, and is expected to end "by the next year". The show eventually ended on January 16, 2016.
== Reception ==
This show was well-received by its entire run, and was marked one of the best shows on Adult Swim, along with "Rick and Morty". It especially received praise for its expressive animation, a trait which "every other Adult Swim show lacks". However, some episodes are hated among the fanbase, like "Charley Horse", which was deemed to be the worst in the entire show due to extensive amount of animal cruelty. 
== Trivia ==
* There were two unproduced episodes of the show: one about proctology (was shelved for being deemed "disgusting") and one explaining where was Idi on the music show night in "Music to My Deaf Ears".
