Is it for me?
Doctor-show regulars who like a House-style eccentric but want him softer will settle in easily. The patients get real warmth, like the Alzheimer's patient Oliver takes out of the hospital to his granddaughter's wedding, where the man sings. Zachary Quinto plays the oddness with a permanently furrowed brow, and his banter with Tamberla Perry's Carol Pierce keeps the sadder cases from getting heavy.
Before you start
Season one runs 13 episodes of mostly one-patient cases; season two is longer, and its episodes often open with a flash-forward.
2 seasons, 33 episodes, 60 min each, about 33 hours so far
