A young surgeon with autism and Savant syndrome, Shaun Murphy, moves from a small town in the United States to work at the prestigious San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital.

Nice hospital series from the makers of House MD, smoothly made and populated by sympathetic characters. This is on the superficial and sometimes improbable side, but the storylines are generally interesting enough and the characters so engaging that the series is very nice to watch. In short, just the right mix of soap, humor and drama. House MD's formula is clearly recognizable, but who cares. Better stolen good from yourself than bad invented by yourself!

Hospital series with the twist of an autistic doctor in training. Would normally not appeal to me but Freddy Highmore really carries the series. Other characters are also interesting and you get to know them better throughout the episodes. Despite some heavy subjects, it is easy to look away.

Haven't seen the original yet, nor House apparently has the same creators. At the same time watching Grey's Anatomy, which is a series that is also about surgeons, but that strikes a different tone. However, both series have the following remarkable similarity: the surgeons are both internists and radiologists, which is strange. I have also seen many cases of illness in this series in Grey's Anatomy. Of course, this does not necessarily mean that people have copied the latter series, but that the same cases have been selected from reality as interesting for TV. But it still feels a bit like copy paste.

In any case, this is less about soap opera-like aspects, and more about a brilliant doctor who has autism and therefore has to overcome that barrier. It is an interesting and original premise and is nicely developed. Furthermore, the characters here are friendlier; everyone has good intentions, no one is inherently unkind, which makes for a good feeling, but isn't entirely realistic. More unrealistic things: the hospital that looks very stylized and clean, and the ridiculous 3D moment in which a case was simulated. Completely unbelievable. Furthermore, a cut shot from outside the hospital is recycled throughout (through the final season at the time of writing, so season six). A bit cheap.

What is also not entirely pleasing are the flashbacks to the youth of the main character. I understand it has to be for the sake of drama, but those moments irked me. But overall pretty nice. 2.5*.
