LOVE…LOVE…LOVE THIS PROGRAM!! PLEASE KEEP IT ON THE TV FOR YET ANOTHER SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!
The first few episodes, especially the first 1-2, you could tell they were still trying to find their footing. However, after a few episodes, the cast really started to click and the writing took off. It’s incredibly well done, has a great mix of characters, and the acting is top notch.
The Good Doctor is extremely good. Freddie is excellent in his portrayal as a doctor.
My family with 4 children are watching this. Two of the children wanted to be come a
doctor.
