Am i the only one that loved this show?


This show has recived nothing but hate and I actually quite liked it. Don't get my wrong every character is pretty horrible except for Catherine I think she really interesting and she makes the show more then worth watching for me.

I thought it was decent and has potential. I think it could find an audience and become a hit show.

It's a good show, but people don't want to know the reality of mental illness. They want to believe that the Earth is less than 10k years old, and that the creator of the universe talks to them. That's not mentally ill at all.

My wife and I both loved this show. Why do they always cancel the good ones? Very disappointed.

You're not alone.
THis show has potential -- interesting lead character, solid production values, and a good time slot.

I don't get the hate either. It's not prefect but had potential. I liked the main character, liked how they portrayed mental illness through the patients' Pov. Like the music too. Some cons: While I like Vanessa Redgrave, I don't buy her character still practicing psychiatry, she looks too old to be doing that. Marve she's her (Dr. Black's) mentor/personal psychiatrist thus only works with her? I also don't like the cocky surgeon;too cartoonish. It's like they were going for a Dr. Sloane one-off. Overall I found the show interesting and looking forward to the next episode.

I do agree that the show is rather interesting and has potential.

I loved the show, loved the main character. That she'd be peeved that they took away a woman's only companion even though it was just a hallucination. That's a good side effect of her mental illness; compassion. Though I fear the main part of the show is her going off her meds and breaking wild, (she could easily get hurt). I'd like it if they'd spend more time on the cases she's working on and how her mental illness helps her help them.

I hated the first 10 minutes, but then it started to get better, it definitely has potential!

I found the main character completely unsympathetic, the plot was meh, and nothing was all that memorable. A person I know who was abused by someone with a mental illness said it was an accurate depiction... so I guess that's something. I'm probably not tuning in again.
