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).

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.

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?
Pure Genius s is our favorite show, well written, stimulating and very entertaining. Think many people have not given it a try. Very innovative!!!!
Please pay attention: there have to be well writte, thought provoking shows for those of us not entertained by re-hashed fairy tales or blood and guts murder mysteries. Pure Genius is a great show–it shouldn’t be cancelled because it has a select audience. Besides, you ran it parallel to Grey’s Anatomy and many folks never gave it a try.
Finally a positive, inspiring hour of excellent television with characters who genuinely like and respect one another for their unique gifts, working through their shortcomings in and through community for the highest good of others. Pure Genius exemplifies how we should all be in relationship to life, and consistently offers fascinating stories about putting our best intentions into action in this world. This is a television program that offers a premise of hope–with a wonderful group of actors, great writing, and an unlimited cache of storylines. CBS, please consider the powerful, positive responsibility you have in offering the world hope… Read more »
