TV show description:
A legal drama, the Doubt TV show follows Sadie Ellis (Katherine Heigl), a brilliant attorney at a boutique firm. Conflict arises when she starts to fall for her charismatic client.
Altruistic pediatric surgeon, Dr. Billy Brennan (Steven Pasquale), was recently accused of murdering his girlfriend, 24 years ago. Sadie struggles to keep their relationship strictly professional.
She must hide her growing feelings for Billy from everyone. Chief among them is close friend and colleague, Albert Cobb (Dulé Hill). Albert thinks he knows everything about Sadie, but that’s not the case.
Also working at the practice is Cameron Wirth (Laverne Cox). A transgender Ivy League grad, Cameron fights so passionately for her clients because she has experienced injustice first hand.
There is also Tiffany Simon (Dreama Walker), a second-year associate who is quickly learning the ropes from Wirth, as well as Nick Brady (Kobi Libii), a former felon who earned his degree while serving time.
The entire staff feels privileged to work for Isaiah Roth (Elliott Gould). The boss is not only a revered legal lion, but also a “lefty” legend. Roth’s approval is their highest goal.
Getting involved with her client could put Sadie’s career and happiness at risk — particularly if Billy is found guilty. She must work all the harder to prove reasonable doubt, even while she has some doubts of her own.
Series Finale:
Episode #13 — The Return
After the jury delivers their verdict in Billy’s trial, Sadie learns he has a secret that might have impacted his case. Also, Billy uses a favor owed to his family by the governor and gets Carolyn released from prison, and Nick is charged with the murder and Isaiah and the firm rally around him to get him released.
First aired: August 12, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the Doubt TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled? Would you have watched season two?
Really liked the show! Nice to have something new to watch on Saturday night! Not everyone has a life and goes out every Saturday. Bring it back!
I can’t figure how you could cancel a good show only 1 episode, especially after I never saw 1 promo for it. I only learned about thr TV guide. I was happy to watch it this summer on Sat nites. A shame for all those involved – good acting and good story lines.
I’ve really enjoyed the show !!! I hope they will reconsider keeping it on the air.
Doubt is a very good with great actors, characters, good plots and story line and it’s a shame it is being cancelled…
I liked the show. I hope they reconsider making season two especially since it was a cliffhanger finally. I would like to see what happens with Sadie and Billy and what happens with Nick. I love the characters and story line. Please reconsider season two.
I wish they would keep this show on the air.
I didn’t get a chance to watch during the spring season. But I am enjoying it during the Summer. I wish it would continue. I think they need to reconsider and renew this show.
I liked the show. So sorry it is leaving the lineup. Reality show like Big Brother should be dropped for good. Stupid show. Doubt is funny, heart warming, sad. Hope you have a change of heart for the show.
I’m an attorney- and this is the first attorney drama that (for the most part) gets it right! Love the case, love the story. I am sad it has been cancelled
I really enjoy it, give it more time to find it’s audience! Don’t cancel
You left us with too many unknowns.You left us hanging CBS.You are they only network charging extra to see TV programs One more negative and I will stop tuning into CBS altogether.
With so much crap on TV, (mainly reality shows) a quality show with a great cast comes along and what do you people do…..you cancel it. A lot of your shows insult our intelligence. Doubt was not one of those shows. And by the way, not one word about Glen Campbell’ passing on your Sunday Morning this morning. What is wrong with you people and your decision making. Someone needs to find a new job.
I like this tv show alot. Much btter than many shows. I don’t think CBS gave it a chance when it first aired in February. Like most shows, it takes an episode or two to catch on. I was happy to see it on this summer – a good story and not reality tv Great cast with talent.
I love this show. Great writing and fantastic, interesting plots. The actors are etremely talented. With so many uninteresting and violent TV shows on the air, I can’t imagine why this show was cancelled.
I like this series a lot!! Great story line with the appropriate amount of humor and humanity. The best of its kind. Great performers and performances. I can’t praise it enough.
Disappointing it’s cancelled… especially after the 13 th episode’s reveal at the end. Good ensemble and great story lines. CBS got this one wrong!!!
