Review of Dr. Death

Dr. Death (2021–2023)
8/10
Medical Adventure
25 December 2023
For those awaiting surgery, do not watch this mini-series. The graphic scenes shown with intense blood and guts will forever keep me from ever seeking medical advice.

Dr. Christopher Duntsch was a brilliant doctor and medical researcher who, unfortunately, lacks a conscience of any kind.

Duntsch is played by a Canadian actor by the name of Joshua Jackson and he is nothing short of brilliant. He captures the menacing stare and unmatched ego of the good doctor.

Alec Baldwin and Christian Slater are the doctors who report their colleague after a few unnecessary deaths due to the malfeasance of the psycho physician.

I was reminded of The Good Nurse, with the only difference being that Charles Cullen was a nurse in New Jersey. In both cases, the hospitals attempted to cover thier asses. Our medical system is all about the Benjamins.

I would have preferred a more linear style of storytelling, and at almost seven hours, the series could have been cut down to four hours. A solid 8/10.
