TV show description:
This medical drama follows what happens when top medical professionals team up with cutting-edge tech experts as they try to push the boundaries of modern medicine and find revolutionary ways to save lives.
Doctor Walter Wallace (Dermot Mulroney) is a disgraced but brilliant surgeon who is recruited by a young Silicon Valley tech billionaire, James Bell (Augustus Prew). Bell builds the ultimate cutting-edge hospital, Bunker Hill, that treats only the most rare and insurmountable medical mysteries — at no cost to the patient.
Wallace soon learns that Bell is harboring a secret, and the good doctor begins to question just what the young founder is really trying to achieve.
Also on the team are Doctor Zoe Brockett (Odette Annable), Doctor Talaikha Channarayapatra (Reshma Shetty), Doctor Malik Verlaine (Aaron Jennings), Doctor Scott Strauss (Ward Horton), and Angie Cheng (Brenda Song).
Episode #13 — Lift Me Up
Angie tries to target her mother’s illness using radical nanobot technology, but she looks to Scott for help when her mother prefers using traditional methods. Also, when a graffiti artist with a clotting disorder falls from a bridge, Walter, Malik and Zoe attempt to use suspended animation to stop his internal bleeding. And Walter is put in an awkward position when Julianna discovers James used the unapproved GSS drug on Louis Keating.
First aired: January 26, 2017.
What do you think? Do you like the Pure Genius TV show on CBS? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Love this show! Touches on tough ethical topics that happen routinely in healthcare.
KEEP THIS SHOW!!!!!!! This is a wonderful series
Like the show. Find the combination of med and uber-tech interedting.
My wife and I truly enjoy this joy. There are times where it moves slowly but is a very creative and interesting show that should be continued ajd not cancelled. Presently, it is in a very competitive time slot. Perhaps it fairs better if moved t0 a different day and time.
We love the TV show Pure Genius and were very disappointed to hear (hopefully falsely) that it had been cancelled! You really need to rethink this move or perhaps allow another station to air it.
It said in the article above, it has NOT been cancelled.
love this show!
For once a show that has a positive vibe for very serious situations in people’s lives. Boy do we desperately need this kind of show right now. I truly enjoy the cast and the series. Keep up the good work!!!
Best medical show on TV. It is innovative, and they make you believe that the solutions that they develop are either reality or could be reality. Great cast, great character development, great interaction. It would be a major mistake to cancel this show.
Please do not cancel Pure Genius love it
Pure Genius is dope. Please do not cancel this show. I absolutely love it!
My favorite new TV show.
The information for this show is confusing. The episode for tomorrow night (Jan. 25th) is designated as ‘Finale’ – NOT ‘Season Finale’. And yet it says here ‘Not Cancelled’. So – has it been definitely cancelled, definitely renewed for a second season – or WHAT??j
Officially, the episode is the season finale. We don’t know yet if it will end up being the series finale too. Unofficially, it’s a longshot for renewal.
Renewed this show is amazing
Please do not cancel this show I love it so much there are not many shows I can say that about please, please
My husband and I love this show. No Violence, no sex, finally a wholesome show.
I. Love Pure Genius. .please keep it on CBS !!!
This show is unique because it is not about criminals or violence and destruction. It always leaves me feeling hopeful for the future not disgusted with humanity. I really enjoy pure genius…Please don’t cancel the show!!!
