Good

Dean 6/10 Apr 13, 2022

Started not bad at first & actually this show has pretty well developed characters that are memorable and you care about them, for example Dr. Glassman and of course the main character Shaun. The actor who plays him does amazing job. In short, it's a pretty decent show, but after season one, it gets deteriorated slowly by adding "woke" propaganda. And they also started making it more unrealistic, like healthy people marrying disabled people, dating crippled people or dating obese and ugly people. I mean, come on, it's not even realistic... In short, I would give this show more if not this political agenda that those forces put it in this show.

JustEntertainment 3/10 Jun 20, 2022

The concept is there, but the same humdrum preachy wokeism that is killing Netflix starts seeping in pretty quickly. The first few episodes are engaging, with likable characters and creative scenarios. Unlikely medical conditions abound, but that has been a staple of medical series since the dawn of time. Unfortunately what's been another shoehorn into recent dramas is the push of political and social agendas that no one in the audience signed up for. By the beginning of the second series, there is more preaching than doctoring, and the story loses its potential.
