I was so impressed with Shugart's character...the young actress that I am not familiar with.

Anna Sophia Robb

I didn't enjoy this series as much as I thought I would, and I can't quite figure out why.  It could be because I already knew the story, so there were no surprises for me.  Or it could be because I love Joshua Jackson and, therefore, found it hard to watch him play this character.  Honestly, to me, it was just ok.

@LTT1 @There is also a season 2 on the podcast. A different doctor. One who was giving chemotherapy to patients who did not have cancer. I had remembered that story from a dateline episode.  I enjoyed both seasons of the podcast. 

I also get Peacock for free. I'm with Cox Communications.

@LTT1 When I was seeing the advertisements for this show it was familiar. We started it Sunday night and we finished it Monday morning. Very good.

I just finished watching this series and it was very well done, excellent cast.  It did anger me this so called doctor was responsible for killing patients.  He deserves his jail sentence.  

 

I had to close my eyes whenever a surgical procedure was shown, I am phobic when it comes to medical issues and am surprised I watched this series.  I didn't need to see the surgeries in order to know what was going on.

Meryl Streeps's daughter is also in this, Grace Gummer.

Me too! I am medical and usually watch with gusto…
However, I did find myself cringing…at the sounds and the blood.

One of the reasons I enjoyed this so is because I have been interested in psychology a long time. I participate in writing on Quora. 
A major topic there is "narcissism."

As I watched Joshua Jackson's portrayal, I was watching for action/gestures that would give insight into narcissism.

It is difficult to watch a character you like as 
"the bad guy". I am not familiar with Joshua Jackson that much.

Neither am I familiar with Grace Gummer's acting.

I did enjoy Christian Slater ....I don't remember liking him at all when he was younger.

 

Also, I find that I cannot even listen to the podcast. The tv series was enough for me!
