ABC's "The Good Doctor" Scores Full Season Order after 2 Airings

After an impressive premiere and Week 2 hold, ABC’s breakout new drama "The Good Doctor", starring "Bates Motel" alum Freddie Highmore, has received a full-season pickup, earning an early Back 9 order to bring its freshman total from 13 to 22 episodes.

"The Good Doctor", from "House" creator David Shore and former "Hawaii Five-0" co-star Daniel Dae Kim, ranks as the top new broadcast drama series so far this season. It becomes the second freshman series this fall besides CBS’ comedy "Young Sheldon" to receive a full-season order 8 days into the season.

“We are thrilled to announce that we are giving our viewers additional episodes of The Good Doctor,” said Channing Dungey, President, ABC Entertainment.

“We have an amazing team in front of and behind the camera, led by Freddie Highmore’s incredibly nuanced performance as Dr. Shaun Murphy, and we’re confident the show will continue to captivate our audience.”

"The Good Doctor", from Sony Pictures TV Studios and ABC Studios, got off to a strong ratings start last Monday, with a 2.2 adults 18-49 rating and 11.22 million viewers in Live+same day, and then exploded in Live+3.

It then carried the momentum into its second week, with its second episode last night holding onto 100% of the L+SD delivery for the series debut and a rare no Week 2 drop-off.

Has anyone seen this show yet? I was wondering if it was good. It looks pretty good but I haven't remembered to DVR it so far.

Yes, I like it. And I am someone who usually avoids medical dramas. Freddie Highmore is an excellent lead, and the flashbacks add to the show.

I have watched all the episodes so far and like that it does have happy endings.
