(S5. E17) My Live Reaction / Review for The Good Doctor Season 5 Episode 17 ''The Lea Show''. The previous episode was good and I gave it a rating of 10/10. Let's see if this one is better or worse. It's so nice to have Claire back. I hope she will be in more episodes. The nurse is in an abusive relationship, better end it soon or she will end up getting fired. This little boy has tumors everywhere, that sucks. The nurse quit? That sucks. The little boy is going to die? That sucks. Did Shaun just found a way to save the boy? Awesome. Lea chose a beautiful dress for the wedding. Wait is the wedding canceled? Again? That's so annoying. Overall this episode was good and I enjoyed it. My rating is 9/10.

First when Glassman makes comments to change a million dollar idea into a billion dollar idea none of it was sexist at all: that's a great business option even if he was straight investor or just used for his contacts and was dumb enough to give them without getting a percentage.

Second when the wedding is about to happen I hated the veil. The entire process to bring and then change was simply a repeat of a few episodes I think of last season. It was simply a delay tactic and it was a lazy effort.

Overall some episodes or moments are beyond amazing (like Freddie's breakdown in pharmacy room). Some episodes and moments are just background noise and filler episodes. This one felt half and half.

Woke for ages.. previously with Dr Glassman being called sexist just because he has more experience and contacts than the first or second year resident and the it girl.. yeah right.. dr lim always making snarky comments about men in general.. men are like this and that... sometimes borderline misandry right there.. now dr brown choosing an option that almost kills the patient and she tells the dr lim she is losing her humanity because she sidelined a nurse who almost let a patient die... hahaha dude, having compassion is one thing but she, as the chief of surgery, should not allow that to continue, no matter if the sorority card wants to be played here.. now imagine if nurse had been a man.. with any kind of personal problems? Do you think he would have the same benevolent treatment by her boss? No he would not and since it is not woke enough, writers would not even bother to make a story about it.

This season has felt so flat and a waste of time. Nearly on the verge of "How I met your mother's" last 3 seasons.

So first half of the season we have a new boss, who is one of the most vile in a long time (blackmail and cares more about money, and ratings)than people's health and a baby dies due to it. Then when they're about to go up against her, her then boyfriend uses material on himself to damage the hospital's reputation and she just leaves?????

And then a few episodes to set up a tv reality wedding, ONLY TO NOT HAVE IT HAPPEN CUZ ITS NOT THEM? COME ON! This season feels like filler, and bad filler at that.

Every episode with Claire in it sucks! Here's another proof! Everytime she would just walk in the room and act like she saved the day while in fact she's the one jeopardizing her patient's life! And everytime it is Shaun who saved her ass! She did nothing but let other people clean up her mess, and then she was the crowned one? WTF? Dr. Lim was right, but Claire is still praised? For what? For believing she knows better just because she cares? I really can't stand this snob, why does it seem like I'm the only one?

Also, the wedding part disgusts me, too! I hate all those "running away bride/groom" plots. They show how irresponsible a person can be, and this show encourages this kind of behavior and let people think that's okay to be irresponsible and reckless? Can't you get things straight prior to the wedding? You're wasting money and everyone else's time and effort by acting like a couple of three-year-old who don't know what they want! And everyone else is indulging them? In the real world it would be the producer suing them and asking them to pay for a million dollars!
