FOX. \u00a9 2026 Fox Media LLC. CR: Jojo Whilden\/FOX<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n Best Medicine<\/em> is about to wrap up its first season \u2014 but Abigail Spencer<\/strong><\/a> already has hopes for season 2.<\/p>\n “[Executive producer] Liz Tuccillo<\/strong> is so generous and collaborative that she has asked me if I have ideas for [my character] Louisa. I’ll pitch things but it is the writers’ journey,” Spencer, 44, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em>. “It’s Liz’s show. So to see where they take it, I like to be surprised.”<\/p>\n Spencer shared some out-of-the-box ideas she had<\/a> for Louisa. Amid the school teacher’s journey to have a baby, Spencer suggested an arc where Louisa “has to take on all these different jobs” at Port Wenn.<\/p>\n “I don’t know why I think this would be so funny but I feel like however Louisa is going to choose to explore this pregnancy, it is expensive,” she teased. “But I thought it’d be really funny if maybe she becomes the town’s jazzercise instructor at the community center. Or maybe the walking club.”<\/p>\n Is Port Wenn a Real Place?

The hemochromatosis is enough,” she quipped about Mark’s (Josh Segarra<\/strong>) various medical anomalies. “But I do like that her journey of getting pregnant does keep it in the medical world. If she’s going to have to go through something that is so medically focused, it’ll make sense where it can be very intimate where it pulls Louisa and Martin back together.”<\/p>\n Best Medicine<\/em> also leaves the door open for a multitude of potential guest appearances \u2014 and Spencer has ideas.<\/a><\/p>\n
