S2.E16 - What An Amazing Episode! Dont Listen to the Other Reviews! [9.6/10]

[panagiotis1993 · 10/10 · 6 March 2024]

(S2. E16) My Live Reaction / Review for The Good Doctor Season 2 Episode 16 ''Believe''. The previous episode was good and I gave it a rating of 9/10. Let's see if this one is better or worse. So now Shaun will be a pathologist? Not a surgeon? That sucks, such a downgrade. So this pastor had a relationship with a believer, they were close and the believer killed himself? And he blames himself for it? That's a bit unfair. More tumors? In every episode someone has cancer, its a bit disturbing. Debbie has a boyfriend, that sucks for Dr. Glassman. I love how Dr. Lim supports Shaun. This man's cancer disappeared just like that? That's awesome. Debbie lied about having a boyfriend, she just doesn't want to be with Dr. Glassman. That's even worse and im sure it hurts Aaron's feelings. I really dislike Dr. Han and what he did to Shaun. Overall this episode was good and I enjoyed it. My rating is 9.6/10.

Unnecessary

I'm enjoying this show so far, but this episode was an insult. How is possible that to the only fervent believer patient got a miracle cure? If that's how things work we were all carrying bibles instead of paying hospital bills. I'm really done off, I hope this is the only church propaganda episode in this show.

Way too preachy

[davids-alter-ego · 4/10 · 1 June 2022]

The episode insults the viewer's intelligence expecting us to accept that they tried writing in a miracle to prove god exists. They could've avoided bias in a medical show and brought up the fact that less occurrences seem like miracles over time because of new knowledge and tests, but the episode took a left turn and cured the pastor to make it seem like 'Wow! He was right, there is a god!'. Way too forced and made Claire seem like she only didn't believe in god because she 'lost her way' rather than a logic explanation for not accepting Christianity.

Get your god out of my science!

Loved the show up to this point, and the drama with Shaun and the new chief surgeon guy is fantastic. But taking the one character who I would have voted most likely to be an atheist and making her super religious all of a sudden practically gave me whiplash. Doctors are scientists, and compared to the the general public scientists are way less likely to be religious, because the scientific method and faith are anathema. Faith = belief without evidence. Scientific method = provide evidence for your beliefs. They just don't work together without some serious mental gymnastics. As an atheist I found this episode insulting; faith plays no role in my life at all, so describing the lack of it as similar to losing a loved one was ridiculous. Epicurus dropped the mic on god over two millennia ago and that should have been the end of it. Boo. I say boo, sir.
