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?
This show was so good it should not have been cancelled-a real shame
it is most experience episode i ever see try to continue and most thrilled and curious TRY NEVER CANCEL
that was a great show that should have been renewed. It was nice to have a show that I could watch with my boys that was intelligent and fun. There are not many. I have seen every episode twice. once with my boys then when my husband was curious started watching with him. Please consider bringing back.
My husband and myself really enjoyed this show and were very disappointed when it did not return!
I’ve been a health care professional for 45 years and fell in love with this show. Pure Genius was a great combination of science fiction, drama, and comedy in a medical setting. Really sorry to find out it’s been canceled, please reconsider.
Good Quality Family Entertainment that shows where tech could go in medical areas over time does not interest the Execs at CBS .The End Result is the Pedo’s and Perverts run the entertainment business and they are only interested in promoting violence /mayhem and murder in the T V shows. Then the Networks play out being horrified and offended party when someone acts out violently on what they promote as being entertainment.
Loved this show. I do not understand why it was cancelled. The acting was great, the story line was fantastic. Couldn’t wait to watch the show and then it is cancelled. People…this should have been renewed!

I hate how they canceled it and now are trying to do redo it, instead of devolving it
