We've officially hit the summer TV season, Squadders. And what could be better for these warm nights than the second season of the USA Network's 'Royal Pains'? This show is a perfect prescription for the summer: It's like a tasty treat that's super lite, fun and easy to consume, but with enough brainy medical terminology to ensure not too many brain cells are lost while enjoying that Hamptons breeze.

To catch up: Prominent New York doctor Hank Lawson (the always-affable Mark Feuerstein), blackballed in Manhattan after a billionaire trustee died on his watch, finds a second life as an in-demand concierge doctor in the Hamptons.

Season 2's first episode was all about relationships, fathers and sons and being caught between a rock and a hard place.

Really, it was all about 'Spasticity.' As in Spencer the Spaz, that guy from the infomercials (played by Kyle Bornheimer, aka that guy from all the sitcoms). And also as in giving family members some slack.

Show Description: "Royal Pains" stars Mark Feuerstein as Hank Lawson who, after becoming blacklisted from the medical community, revives his career as a "doctor for hire" to the rich, famous and infamous in the Hamptons. In addition to his wealthy patients, Hank treats the town's less fortunate and finds himself walking the line between doing well for himself and doing good for others. The show also stars Paulo Costanzo, Reshma Shetty and Jill Flint. Henry Winkler ("Arrested Development") joins the cast for season two as Eddie R. Lawson, Hank and Evan's father. "Royal Pains" is executive produced by Michael Rauch as well as by Rich Frank, Paul Frank and Jeff Kwatinetz from Prospect Park and is written and executive produced by Andrew Lenchewski. Christine Sacani and John Rogers serve as co-executive producers. The series is produced by Universal Cable Productions.
