Good story, Not enough for a whole film

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

Tired story line, dead ex-wife who he couldn't care less about(never sheds a tear for her when he discovers she's dead) is using him to patch up her shoddy life, liberally disguised as a pretty message of socialism at its finest, wealth successful white man = bad (conservatism) , dippy headed ex wife giving away her medical expertise (liberalism) = good.So let me save you wasted viewing time and sum up the entire series: Rich guy, cool car, brags about his skills but he's right and he saves everyone he touches. Oh this is a simple case of (insert Latin word here)... so take two aspirins and call your doctor tomorrow, just DON'T CALL ME.. what? She fainted in the lobby? That's the 8th person just this week who I thought I fixed only to learn they had a deeper seeded problem that was actually neurological in nature. Fortunately I've watched House MD for years and I know how to fix these things. Just talk up my game, remove the jigzaw pieces of her skull effortlessly and dig around with a water hose and a vacuum cleaner while my dead ex wife and a pretty blonde doctor (that can happen) oooh and aaah over my work. See, my tailored shirt didn't even get wrinkled, now bring my CTS around so I can drive around until I get a phone call emergency to save a dying immigrant because that's how I roll.Repeat x however many episodes.

i am so sad that they are canceling this show, spoke to many people on twitter, about it and we all enjoyed it. The character Michael Holt, is just so unusual. Loved it all. At fist the pilot and the first few shows were strange, because it felt like a c rated show on something like our "sky Atlantic", but every character had a great dimension, real clarity. You could easily just relax to this, unlike "house" where the plot and scenes chopped and changed so quickly. Shame that all the good shows get canceled. I caught up with it on American Netflix, and missed it on our SKY cable. Not sure where the show here was first shown. I desperately wanted the main character to end up with his colleague. Now with it ending, I will not know what happens.

This is one of the best shows I have seen in a long time. Dr. Holt makes me wish that he was my neurologist. It is refreshing to watch a show where doctors go out of their way to take care of their patients, too bad it is not like that in the real world. But it is always good to be able to watch it on TV. I love the mix of story lines and different challenges he faces each week. The writers are doing a fantastic job with this series and the actors/actresses are fantastic. I look forward to watching this every week. I have it set to record in case I miss an episode. I am really missing that it is not on at the moment. I hope that CBS brings it back soon, even if they are reruns, they would be better than nothing.

I appreciate this television show and the last episode in particular. I was very impressed with the attitude and actions of the character portrayed by Eriq LaSalle who is facing a life with Huntington's disease (HD). First he was black and secondly he was physically exercising to promote his health, and contemplating a serious relationship with a woman he'd recently met. This was the first time I ever witnessed this kind of attitude on television being associated with HD. For those of you who are unfamiliar with HD, briefly, it is a fatal, autosomal-dominant neurological illness causing involuntary movements, debilitating emotional disturbance and cognitive decline. In my family, we are intimately familiar with living with this illness. In most instances, when you hear of someone being diagnosed with HD, it's portrayed as if one has been handed a death sentence. Due to the strong emotional impact of the diagnosis and symptoms of this chronic, hereditary condition, and the stress of knowing that others in the family are and may be at risk; the media often associates HD with euthanasia, and at its worst, suicide, and justifiable homicide. In my lifetime of 62 years, I have witnessed and assisted in the care and treatment of four generations of affected family members which include my maternal grandmother, mother, aunt, two brothers and two nieces. Over the years, the family as a whole has, and continues, to live through various evolutionary approaches and ways of being with an affected family member. I feel our combined experience covers the gambit of possible reactions to this illness from denial, shame and embarrassment, to making sure that the affected member participates fully (as in "livin' out loud!") in the remainder of their life while being able to recognize God triumphantly shinning through the HD, as incredulous as this may seem. I applaud A Gifted Mans' approach to portraying someone affected with this illness in a life affirming manner.
