There was always a chance Steve would be autistic, but can The Good Doctor do this story justice? The Good Doctor Season 7 Episode 8 bounced everywhere with this storyline. Shaun fretted about Steve and had flashbacks of his father’s mistreatment, while Lea’s good reasons for not wanting to do a brain study were dismissed
The Good Doctor
It feels like just yesterday when Shaun Murphy was a first-year medical resident who had to prove that his autism wouldn’t interfere with his ability to be a surgeon. But it’s been six years, and as of The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 22, Shaun is now a first-time father and attending physician at St.
Okay, we can breathe again, at least for the moment. The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 19 featured an intense surgery after major clashes between Lim and Andrews, but that wasn’t the scariest moment. Please tell me I’m not the only one who held my breath when Glassman opened his test results! The chances were
Good news first: Jared’s rejoined the team at St. Bonaventure. It seems silly for him to have to start all over again as a first-year resident, but if it gets him back on canvas more or less permanently — Jared will be recurring for the rest of the season – I’m all for it. The
We have bad news for fans counting down the days to get a first look at ABC’s The Good Lawyer. The network announced Wednesday that the planted spinoff of The Good Doctor has been delayed by a week. The episode will now air Monday, March 13, at 10/9c. ABC announced last month that Kennedy McMann
Thank goodness Lea and Shaun’s baby was all right! Whether or not you love Shaun/Lea as a couple, nobody wanted to suffer through a second miscarriage with them, especially if Lea had to have an emergency hysterectomy on top of it. The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 10 centered mostly on Lea’s pregnancy complications, but
Trauma changes people’s lives. It becomes an invisible force that shapes decisions and makes its presence known at inconvenient times. TV often doesn’t get it right, but The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 8 did a beautiful job. Not only did Morgan push a patient to get a rape kit because of Morgan’s own trauma,
While Shaun spent his workday trying to save a woman’s life, Lim spent hers trying to prove he was to blame for her paralysis. The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 3 is still stuck on this ridiculous conflict. And to make matters worse, Lim not only ended her friendship with Shaun but implied that she’d
It seems like dealing with an annoying boss is the new trend in 2021. Law & Order: SVU, Blue Bloods, New Amsterdam, and now The Good Doctor have all featured storylines with a boss that interferes with the way things should be and needs to be put in their place. And on The Good Doctor
I knew Salen was going to be trouble. As Glassman said, she started as a fake patient before taking over the hospital and demanding changes that didn’t necessarily serve patients. On The Good Doctor Season 5 Episode 2, she alienated everybody and contributed to Shaun having another Autistic meltdown. And I don’t know how much
It takes courage to try to bridge the gap between political opponents these days. The Good Doctor Season 4 Episode 15 made an honest attempt at depicting the common humanity most of us share despite our individual political views. That in itself is a political position that might irk some viewers, but it was a
[Warning: The following contains spoilers for Season 4, Episode 2 of The Good Doctor. Read at your own risk!] The Good Doctor‘s two-part premiere concluded Monday night after a second hour saw the doctors of St. Bonaventure bring the COVID-19 pandemic to manageable levels. The second episode also allowed fans to spend a little more
It was inevitable that COVID-19 would end up on our screens. It’s the stuff that medical dramas live for: a deadly disease that has a million seemingly unrelated symptoms and stretches hospital capacity and doctors’ energy to the limits. But considering that viewers have lived through nine months of the real thing, was The Good Doctor
There isn’t a ton of new stuff to watch this week, and that might be because Netflix doesn’t want to compete with the news. There’s an election this week, you know? History is being made, and TV, like most of us, is mostly thinking about that this week. Election night coverage is pretty much the
Are you ready for the winter holidays? Do you even know what month it is? The days may be running together, but Hulu is ready to serve up holiday happiness and mirth to help put you in a festive mood. If you’re looking for cooking and meal inspo, Hulu is adding plenty of shows featuring
The Good Doctor shook things up between Shaun and Lea. Literally. When several relationship storylines appear to have hit dead ends, what to do besides raise the stakes with a natural disaster? The Good Doctor Season 3 Episode 19 was the first of a two part season finale involving the aftermath of a huge earthquake. Couldn’t
Production on the majority of television and movie projects has been shut down over the past week due to concerns over the spread of the coronavirus. For a lot of television shows, that leaves uncertainty of how their seasons will end and what happens next — but they are still finding ways to help in
The Good Doctor fans are passionate about the Carly/Shaun/Lea love triangle. We recently had the opportunity to catch up with Jasika Nicole (Carly) and get her take on Carly and Shaun’s relationship, the evolution of her character, and all other things The Good Doctor. Check out her thoughts below. What attracted you to the role
The Good Doctor depicts autism better than almost any show currently on TV. But when it gets it wrong, it gets it way wrong. The Good Doctor Season 3 Episode 16 was one of those times. For the second episode in a row, everyone tried to tell Shaun what he felt, and the implication that he
Shaun choosing Carly was always too good to last, but this latest wrinkle is ridiculous. It was bad enough that Morgan spent all of The Good Doctor Season 3 Episode 15 planting seeds in both Shaun and Carly’s heads about how Carly needs to be jealous of Lea. All it took was Shaun and Lea
