Doc

I watched the Italian series before and just started with the 2 first episodes of the US version. It's definitely okay, but I prefer the Italian version. The Italian version was with a very charismatic man with a great smile that misses this version.

I think it's a shame to make a remake of a great series. Probably it's because the original was in Italian, maybe better synchronise it.

I just finished the first 6 episodes, and once you get past the fact that the main character suffers a traumatic brain injury and is asking to return to work the next day, it's actually a great show. I think the reason it works is because Dr. Larson was a closed off b-word before the accident and each episode we get to see through flashbacks the difference in her character.

I especially like the relationship between her and her best friend. Overall, the backstory with her family explains how she became the way she was before her accident. The antagonist characters feel more like flawed people who really aren't bad so they aren't one dimensional, which leaves room for growth.

I know it's supposed to be a medical drama but it's the relationships and even the patients and their family that make this a compelling series. I'm a nurse and the medical inaccuracies don't bother me as much since the real story is about the character's reactions to the medical mystery. The show does a great job of getting you to care about the characters.

I hope it sticks around; it's been a long time since I've liked a medical drama.

"Doc" presents a compelling narrative, anchored by Molly Parker's exceptional performance. Here's a positive take on the series: * Molly Parker's Powerful Performance: * Parker delivers a nuanced and captivating portrayal of Dr. Amy Larsen. She masterfully captures the character's journey of rediscovery, navigating the complexities of memory loss and personal transformation. Her ability to convey both vulnerability and strength is truly remarkable.

* Storyline: * The show effectively blends medical drama with personal drama, creating a compelling and emotionally resonant experience. The premise of a doctor rebuilding her life after amnesia provides a unique and intriguing perspective.

* The show does a good job of balancing the medical cases, with the personal relationships of the characters. This provides a good balance for viewers.

* "Doc" delves into the complexities of its characters, exploring their flaws and vulnerabilities. This adds depth and authenticity to the story, making it more relatable and engaging.

* The show creates intresting relationship dynamics, that keep the viewer involved in the show.

Overall, "Doc" is a worthwhile watch, elevated by Molly Parker's and some others outstanding performance and its engaging storyline.

Dr. Amy Wolcott's miraculous recovery from a crash that erased eight years of memories but left her physically unscathed stretches medical credibility beyond repair. The show's premise - that a trauma severe enough to cause such specific retrograde amnesia wouldn't result in serious physical injuries or brain damage - is neuroscience fantasy at its most egregious. Watching her confidently stride hospital halls arguing for her right to practice medicine - while apparently suffering no cognitive deficits beyond the convenient plot-serving memory gap - feels like watching a medical drama written by someone whose only research was reading soap opera summaries. The show sacrifices scientific plausibility for dramatic convenience, undermining its own attempts at serious storytelling.

I see viewers chiding it for not being medically realistic. Go to hospital wards for reality. This is a TV Show. Follow the storyline, enjoy the plot and leave reality out of it, because it will never be reality. Go outside and have a life, so when you sit down in front of the TV you'll acknowledge it for what it is - a show!

Otherwise, the movie is a 10/10. I enjoyed watching it. The acting was splendid, so was the actors. This movie is captivating! Sent me on my knees! Totally loved it!!!

If you need medically realistic, visit a hospital ward. If you need a nice show to enjoy, grab a tissue and a popcorn, and get ready to have your mind blown!
