Brilliant Minds

The first episode kept me so interested!!! A lot of doctors truly don't see the person they sometimes see a helpless person with an illness to the brain. I love that this serious digs deep into who they are not what they're become. My uncle had a stroke the doctors were saying he won't understand speech, won't walk or talk. Truly discouraging it's been 3 months and he understands language, is trying to speak and stand. All n all it proves doctors aren't god they don't know everything. I really like how this series portrays this message. To not give up because of the patients condition. All n all I'm excited for this series. I hope we get a season 2.

It's been a while since there's been a "rogue genius doctor" series on network, so it's about time.

Firstly, I think it's awesome they let Quinton's character be openly homosexual. Not sure how it's relivant to the story but we shall see.

The show itself is basically "House" just with a more focused specialty of neurology, face blindness instead of a limp, and not so much of a drug problem (so far).

You still have the strict Chief of Medicine, except this one is his mother instead of his "will they/wont they" romantic interest.

The thing I can do without are the SUPER CHEESY big speeches. They feel so absolutely fake and corny, and don't really further the plot. If the writers feel the need to include them, maybe write them into a small, one-on-one conversation instead of a big public speech.

I love the weird conditions the writers introduce us to, and the medical nerds out there will most certainly be blowing up Wikipedia (I did for Capgras Syndrome!) I think over time the show may truly find its feet and hopefully live to exist at least a few seasons, after all, NBC did renew the trash it brought us in 2023...

So far it is really fascinating I am truly engaged with the first episode. I love how the characters really care for the patients and go above and beyond for them this show can go very well if it's written correctly and connects the dots very efficiently. I want this show to go for many seasons I can't wait to see the next episode I really hope that we get a deeper back story on the supporting characters and on the main character. I know that the medical field is very difficult and I applaud those great heroes for what they do everyday I hope that many hospitals, clinics, pharmaceuticals, etc, Recognize and reward their staff for their hard work. Again I love this first episode and I hope it gets many seasons.

I really like Brilliant Minds, but please don't pass on incorrect information. You cannot get a dishonorable discharge after you are discharged. And your activity after discharge cannot alter your discharge type. If your behavior is threatening or exposing military secrets that's criminal not impacting their military performance. And if they are being seen by the VA hospital then they are "veterans" which means out of the service. If they were still active than they are service members. The information should be as truthful as possible. I know this was just added to further the storyline, but it very harmful to any honorably discharged person!

Love that this show focuses on making a persons weakness their strength. Showing that what makes them different might be what gives them power. I look forward to the potential story lines and characters with this cast. It's refreshing to see a new idea when there are so many medical shows today. The fact that this show has decided to take risks and talk about subject matter that is potentially taboo is refreshing. I wish more shows would spend as much time developing the characters as the show put into the pilot. You truly understand where this is coming from and it is so important to him to fix the patient and not the diagnosis.
