Yes, I watched it because Kelly Rielly has impressed me ever since I saw her portray Caroline Bingly in Pride and Prejudice. I expected it would be an interesting piece because, like any good character actress, she tends to select interesting projects with interesting characters, and this is no exception...
What is better was the script. Dr. Black's character is well fleshed out in a single episode with an intense amount of drama that ran as fast as it could to pack two hours worth of material into 40 odd minutes of airtime. Not a single second of film was wasted. The two patients she treats, in the short minutes we spend with them, are also fleshed out to the point that we are given reason to love them and understand fast what it is they face.
If the follow up episodes live up to the pilot, we have a series deserving of being a big hit.
