“I completely disagree with the reviewers who think this show has “become political.” They are no doubt referring to medical subjects such as gender-affirming care, chromosome variations, and abortion access. I actually really appreciate that these subjects were addressed from the medical...”Read full review »

“Even after all of my own experiences in the medical field, it still surprises me just how dumb humans can be at scale. The show makes the depressing realization that we're all idiots much more palatable, thank you!”Read full review »
