Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
bestgrandma This is without a doubt, the best and most refreshing show on T.V. bar none!!!!!!The acting is superb....especially "Michael" and I hope the show continues with the high quality it has now, with the plots about things happening around the clinic and hospital...no drama queens please...just down to earth plots with the great acting continuing. Please continue with Anna in the scenes, but don't "overdue" it. You don't want it being compared to Ghost Whisperer because it is not like that at all. Keep all the characters you have now as they, in my opinion, are real, diverse and totally believable. I'd like to see some in depth about each of the characters over the season, but please.....keep it real
sweetspriz I LOVE this show! The characters are so diverse but they mesh together so well. The story line is great--I loved the first episode and every one since, and am very concerned about the rumors I've heard that it may be canceled. I've read through many of the comments from other viewers, and although there have been a few that have not found it to their liking, there have been many, many more who DO like it! It's a wholesome show suitable for the entire family, which is maybe why some people don't like it, not enough sex, promiscuity, etc. CBS really needs to think twice about taking this out of their show lineup...it's what I look forward to on Friday night TV.
ifetayo 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.
daysnetaustralia I have spent the entire weekend watching the first 12 episodes and at first I thought it was a little like House but then I got over it. I like Michael Holt and I like that he reveals a little of himself every week. The menagerie that accompanies him every week fits in with each episode and the writing is quite good.I know it's probably headed for the scrapheap because most of the good ones are but I hope it reveals a lot more of Michael and Anna's relationship that we don't know already. I love Rita and while I didn't like her at first she is the type to grow on you and certainly would pull the group at the Clinic into line and probably get them the money they need to continue to support the community.Good one! Well done and let's hope that if the show is canceled that Patrick Wilson finds another home on TV very soon. He would be sorely missed otherwise.
