Does anybody from the show read these posts? Maybe two (v. tiny) changes, if you guys are interested:

1) Quit writing Evan as a clueless clown. He's clearly already successful and he's smart, funny, clever and there's an interesting humanity in his eyes; try writing him that way. He can still mix it up with Divya.

2) Knock it off with Hank's sanctimony. 'Patient confidentiality,' jeeez, we get it already. And that speech to the original concierge doctor in the first episode (while attending the unconscious girl)? Please; three words or four words is all any doctor, or the audience for that matter, would need.

I have some thoughts along those lines, but basically, this show is summer fluff. Like the lightweight book you take to the beach. Cookie cutter characters, happy endings, virtuous protagonist.
uuuuuuggggggghhhhhh
It could have been a really good show. Wrong actors wrong writers.

Aw, c'mon, they brought us the episode about the bark-mitzvah. It doesn't get any more hysterical/classy/edgy/intriguing/riveting than that. cool.gif
