I watched it for a while. It was pretty good, but got fairly repetitive after a season or two.

all I know is that the doctor is supposed to be on the spectrum, but from these clips, it looks like they might have used some kinda caricature of a hyper literal person, with no room for flexibility.

I haven't seen it, though, so I can't say.

Did this all start from the "I am a surgeon!" clip randomly being posted or something else.

I remember The Good Doctor starting as a show (just from ads, never watched) but it feels like a lifetime ago, so to hear it's still airing now is crazy.

The origin story is apparently a right winger latching on to a clip of the doctor getting real transphobic

My mom watches it. I saw the first season and kinda got distracted by other shows

I see bits of it sometimes. Sometimes when I go over to vist she has it on. This fall it's getting a spinoff called The Good Lawyer about a lady lawyer with OCD I think. Played by the woman who was Nancy Drew on CW

Damn I seeing people roasting the actor playing the autistic doctor and the out of context scenes...

Kinda unsure what to make of it since while I did see the show with an aunt of mine long ago, I don't remember all the details about it.

It's funny that people are spamming this meme supporting Dr Han when it was Han's intentional manipulation to belittle and provoke the Good Doctor so he could make him look irrational and fire him.

I've seen some people say that the clips being shown are all out-of-context (yes, even the anti-trans one) and the show actually has pretty good writing. I dunno personally though, I don't really have an interest in watching doctor shows.

Wow the tweet really misrepresents what happened in that clip.

He's not "refusing" anything. The Doctor is autistic. He literally does not understand how he can get his wallet while still keeping his hands where the robber can see them. And the robber yelling at him just made him freak out even more.

As hilarious as these clips are out of context, the guy who made the show being the creator of House makes me think the show isn't the trainwreck the memes are making it out to be.

This take doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Shaun is the benefactor of nepotism and would be more analytical of people's words and actions.

Manipulators also tend to turn everyone else against their victim, so if anything Han's conviction in spite of popular opinion is him fighting against manipualtion.

If you want to know the origin story of the MC

He and his brother run away from home that night the rabbit is killed. They live homeless for a while. One day there is an accident and his brother dies. He decides to become a doctor so he can save people like his brother. I think I remember that he was helpless to stop the bleeding or whatever, and he thinks if he had doctor training, he could have saved his brother
