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?
Absolutely LOVED this program. Why did you take it off. Missed it.
Great program. Please bring it back.
I look forward to watching this show. Love, love, love it. Please don’t cancel it.
My family and I truly look forward to this show each week. I find it innovative and uplifting. I so hope it is continuing. I consider it my favorite show on TV.
My husband and I absolutely love this show. It is wholesome, innovative, and compassionate. How wonderful for humanity if there could be a philanthropic institution like this. Please don’t cancel this show.
i love this show, it’s so innovative. please don’t cancel it
Pure Genius is pure genius! Finally a show that is smart, compassionate, forward thinking, and not simply full of of blood, gore, and ignorant concepts. I am so sick of the reigning apocolyptic drivel that we seem to be being force fed these days. Contrary to what seems to be popular belief these days some people who actually find the time to watch TV upon occassion have an IQ level above that of a toad. Please renew Pure Genius!
Please don’t cancel this show. You finally put on a good show and now I hear you won’t renew. I’m so tired of comedies and sitcoms that I almost stopped watching TV. My wife talked me into giving Pure Genius a try and I loved it. If you take it off, I will stop watching TV. Hi Tech that is plausible and interesting is a good watch. Remember Star Trek is changing the world, maybe Pure Genius will do the same.
LOVE this show , it is different and so heart warming almost every episode makes me cry. I Can not wait for the next weeks show. Great cast I definitely want more of the show.
i love love love this show, i dont get to watch tv much been a working single mom so when i do find a series i like its rare. and i like this show

Love this show. All the actors fit well and it is very refreshing. DON’T CANCEL Please
Big Fan of Pure Genius. Do hope CBS renews.
Long time CBS viewer (over half my shows are CBS)..let the other networks do the fantasy, gore…and other re-hash.
Please do not cancel Pure Genius! It is a great show and I hope to hear it is renewed, as it deserves to be. I am tired of the insanely vapid series in prime time slots when a show with some merit is threatened with cancellation. Please CBS, do not caancel Pure Genius.
