Alicia I love this movie so much

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Wm_Gardner First off, I really liked the show. I liked it enough that I bought the whole season on iTunes after watching the free first episode. It was a little bit like "Homeland" (early on) but set in a cutting edge medical facility instead of a world full of spies and terrorists. However, in the last few episodes, there was a story arc underway that was never finished. The main character, after seeming to be on a solid track to recovering from her public meltdown, is hit with two surprises..... one of them at the very end of the show.The first surprise hits at about the 1/3 mark of the episode and it is left with one of those "this will get better in time" sort of vibes. The last one, the writers set you up for, lulling you into a sense that this problem has been completely resolved and that her career will withstand this, only to drop a bomb on you with the closing sentence of dialogue.Why is this frustrating? Well, because it was a damn good show. Great acting all around (an interesting observation; although set & filmed in NYC, almost none of the stars were from the US). The main characters were well-developed and almost all of them had a fairly deep backstory. The show tackled an issue which is not studied in-depth on most shows (mental illness). All the main characters were capable of great & magnificent things (in their own way) yet every single one also had feet of clay. While some of the story lines were a bit of a stretch, they were more plausible than most episodes of "House" and the similar cases were presented more accurately and the solutions were more medically sound.Well, if you don't mind being left hanging in the end and you are not bothered by a dark look into mental health issues, I highly recommend this show. It just is really frustrating when a show is canceled because of rating but it has been scheduled at an unusual time of year (the pilot ran in late April) and has been under-advertised. It almost makes you wonder why the network even bothered airing the program at all.... just let the production company shop it to another network like FX, TNT, etc.

swf64 Enabling failure and manipulation are the hallmarks of the American entertainment industry. For the most part it's a harmless game. It always has been.It's not wrong when the ends justify the means, or there is another justifiable framework in place. Wrong becomes right and right becomes wrong. You're not to blame and the enemy is always a bad guy. It's a fantasy that sells. It's a fantasy that entertains.Sex, violence, power, all looking for justification and an audience to entangle. The only goal to sell and support an above average lifestyle. These are the hard truths and you will find nothing like them in the Black Box.These are the reasons some topics are generally seen as untouchable except by those with no scruples.If ABC was really interested in helping the mentally ill navigate our society, I would suggest a television series might not be the best vehicle.

SnoopyStyle Dr. Catherine Black (Kelly Reilly) is the top neuroscientist working at the Center for Neurological Research and Treatment. She has bipolar disorder with sexually aggressive manic episodes. Her therapist Dr. Hartramph (Vanessa Redgrave) battles to keep her on her meds. Her chef boyfriend Will Van Renseller (David Ajala) doesn't know at first. Her brother Joshua Black (David Chisum) and wife Reagan (Laura Fraser) are hiding the fact that she's actually the mother to their daughter Esme (Siobhan Williams). At work, she has a complicated attraction to her destructive co-worker Dr. Ian Bickman (Ditch Davey).This is a crazy series about mentally ill character. It's fascinating to see some people praise it for its accuracy while others deride it as fantasy. I have no personal experience with mental illness. Some of the show is obviously overstated but I found most of the weekly procedural interesting. The personal melodrama is also very interesting especially the part with her daughter. The jazz music and her manic dancing is a bit distracting and not my taste. This is generally a well made show about a character that is slightly different from the usual fare. It had few viewers and canceled after one summer season.

Dashkobie The more I watch Black Box the more I enjoy this series. I love Katherine's character, she's Different, Sexy and what she does next is a Mystery, She is Brilliant! I love the fact that every episode is based on actual stories and these stories are so far out there. I love the new relationship shes having with the sexy doctor she works with he is really cute however I didn't give him much thought until recently, I like him now more so when he was a player, seriously their relationship is Hot but not over the limit. I wasn't too sure when this series aired but now I'm hooked! Give this Series Time, Black Box is one of my five top favorite shows It is Really Really Good! I'm looking forward to where this show is going, it has moved in so many directions, I cant see where Black Box and it's characters is heading
