[The superpowers of] Shaun Murphy, the young, brilliant and autistic surgeon ... are depressing -- because they reflect the collective judgment broadcast television bosses that their viewers are bigoted halfwits.September 22, 2017
It needs to be more than a medical drama with a gimmick. It needs more from its supporting characters and stories. It needs to show other sides of its protagonist.September 22, 2017
We may want to resist having our heartstrings pulled, but regardless of how hokey the series is, get out your handkerchiefs and call me in the morning.September 21, 2017
The story possibilities are readily apparent on a number of fronts in the best broadcast network medical drama since Hugh Laurie contrastingly bruised his way through House.September 22, 2017
The Good Doctor features a decent performance by Freddie Highmore as an autistic doctor, but the show itself is pretty basic.September 06, 2017
If there's anyone who can make good TV out of a genius physician who has difficulty relating to other people, it's House creator David Shore.June 20, 2017
This has the potential to be a refreshingly thought-provoking hospital drama, based on the buttons pushed in the pilot alone.September 18, 2017
... The Good Doctor is actually sweet and thoughtful and comforting and the pilot might have made me cry just a little bit.
