Chasing the Cure

I would give more stars but I can't stand to listen to the host, Ann. She talks to the guests like they are 2 years old and is extremely fake. The way she touches them is also creepy and unnecessary. It makes it hard to watch the show.

I think this show is America. Giving hope to these poor souls that have no hope. The show is literally saving lives. Having problems of my own, I would love to be on it.

This show is awful. the doctors look silly in their round table discussions, forced and anyone w a brain knows that they aren't specialists in the rare diseases they are discussing. the show should focus on the patients, the smiley doctors talking to patients across a couch feels so insincere. these are not patients they have followed for months through their illness. also great all the docs are of color but that also feels forced and they speak in these whopping generalizations you won't be lonely any more now that we have done this amazing thing! please spare us.

No different than a typical afternoon "medical" talk show like Dr. Oz, only with some crowdsourcing which other shows have done for a while. Most of the program isn't even live; it's pre-recorded as the doctors already know the cases. Even the live part seems scripted (and poorly acted) like a reality show, especially the time devoted to telethon-like operators monitoring internet tweets and posts. The patients need real help, but it comes across as a spectacle.

I watched the show for all of 3 minutes, other than me waking up to it on constant reruns. Ann Curry comes off overly concerned. These people have been suffering long enough, they are not side-shows at a carnival. Help these people, quit with the updates on 200 calls, and show them months later after they are better.
