The Good Doctor: The Good Lawyer (2023)
Season 6, Episode 16
10/10
Great Pilot Episode for The Good Lawyer
25 March 2023
At the time of viewing, I was unaware that this was a pilot episode, until afterwards I researched more. At the time of viewing I thought if this is not a pilot for a new series, then it should be.

Everything about it was awesome. The story was extremely well told. Joni's disability was delicately portrayed, and modern day often unwitting discrimination was portrayed with skill, both by the script writers and the actors.

I like the way that Joni's first appearance was almost dismissed as a chance encounter. The dialogue between Shaun and Jodi is intellectually thought provoking.

Janet too is an interesting character, though if I were to adversely criticise, character development may have been a little too quick.

As someone who is hooked on legal dramas, probably more-so than medical dramas. I hope this will be the beginning of multiple seasons. I can't wait for the season to start.
