The Good Doctor, Season 1

My husband and I became addicted.It’s so extraordinary to watch The Good Doctor performance that is hard to stop.I hope they keep coming and we’re going to keep watching!

I bought the series after seeing an interview with Highgrove (I know he progressed years afer Augus Rush, but it's still my favrite movie. Then I got the gift of Richard--always pithy--Schiff with the package. Made my day. As I read thru the reviews, Highgrove's character was what people are returning for. I was let down in the pilot by a focus on a steamy sex scene. Oh, no, not another American Hospital mattress binge. Ho hum. Are the writers' perception of viewers that shallow? Reviewers seemed to be hungering for the out-of-the-box Good Doctor, not in-box supporting characters doing what they all do in every other hospital series. Further episodes deepened those characers; but I am most interested as they grow in relationship to Shaun. Who cares about their "general hospital' love lives? Relatonships matter and move the characters forward, but please give us something higher than the usual. Fankly, I don't care if the environment isn't real or the operations impossible. I respect that people in the hospital corps scoff; but most of us just see it as dramatic set dressing to heighten the drama. So what? Reallly? Also, the autistic spectrum is so colored with variation, I can recognize parts of Shaun in my own brother with highly functional Aspergers. From people's reviews, they don't seem to want the ordinary, but the extraordinary, character that isn't driven by lust but by truth. Too bad the main character has to be handicapped to be pure, but there it is. I suppose that the writers will eventually offer up the Good Doctor to be seduced by a woman to offer him 'love', although I hope not. It will be the death of it. Please take it higher. Be 5-star!

Give it a shot. Youll be sucked in!!!!!

Can’t wait for more seasons to come out !!’

I really enjoyed this series, and i’m looking forward to next season

This is an enjoyable show portraying an uncomfortable subject for some folks, it used to be giving capable persons of another race the job over a less qualified candidate or maybe even a woman! Remember the issue with segregation, that horror show still exists for the folks with 'Special Needs' like Autism the one this show centers on and lightly shows the resistance some of the other doctors have at using Dr. Shaun Muphry and respecting him as an equal. There was also a very good episode that was heartbreaking, it showed the new neighbor move in, this guy seemed a bit shady but did fill a void as a friend for Dr Shaun left from the loss of his last friend moving out he had been lonely. It portrayed a building of the neighbour doing favors like hooking up a TV and wifi, appearing nightly to spend evenings together then one night he comes home to find all his equipment is now at his neighbors and when he goes over there bringing pizzas thinking its just another night but now it's at the neighbors's apartment he's told that his apartment that is full of "New" friends just aren't the right fit for Dr Shaun but thanks for the pizza and gets the door shut in his face. This is something that can happen to anyone but there are people that are targeted first and its horrible especially on top of everything else. I hope this show continues of course its not totally accurate if it was it wouldn't fit in an hour.

Be the excellent and diversified Cast of recognizable faces or the intriguing medical cases I am fully engaged with this show. I was also reading some of these reviews and I find it amusing that someone’s husband who is a doctors rants at the show for not being completely authentic. If he wants complete authenticity he should watch a documentary and/or live surgery. I can’t wait to see what happens in season two.

Such a good show to watch!!

I NEVER watch medical dramas (or rarely) if ever, any other television series, however I purchased this entire series with no regrets. All I can say is.... MORE PLEASE!

Best show ever!!! Can't wait until season 2
