NutHOUSE: A lazy ripoff of a better show.
Someone earlier called this show nutHouse & I couldn't agree more. This show is a complete rip-off of House. From the conflicts with the female superior who, even though she may sometimes disagree with him, still lies to cover up his unethical behavior and struggles to make everyone else see what a brilliant doctor he is. To the black, money hungry/power hungry supervisor with a vendetta against said "brilliant" doctor who gets an underling to "snitch" on the brilliant doctor and report on his whereabouts and questionable methods.Then of course there's the constant misdiagnosis and inevitable cure found at the last minute, of course, by the one and only aforementioned brilliant doctor.
The acting is atrocious! Mental is such a complete rip-off of a better show that it's like watching kids (poorly) acting out an episode of House for a school play. They've even got a lesbian.
Things went from bad to worse so much with the Carridine episode that I am truly sorry that the mans last TV appearance is this POS television show.
Seriously, don't watch this: its about as exciting as an off-OFF Broadway play about people, writing about people, who write about people, who write about plays (confusing I know)!
score 3/10
