Critics Consensus

Benefitting from a characteristically sharp performance by Zachary Quinto, Brilliant Minds is a medical procedural with brains but also a surprising amount of heart.

Kelly Lawler USA Today The result is sluggish and boring. Rated: 1.5/4 Oct 2, 2024 Full Review Nina Metz Chicago Tribune The show has a real understanding of how episodes need to be paced, and they are filled with the right amount of character-building when it comes to each week’s patients. Rated: 3/4 Sep 25, 2024 Full Review Daniel Fienberg Hollywood Reporter Thus far, the show’s sweet spot is when the story starts in the head, but quickly moves to the heart. It’s fundamentally a tearjerker... Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Joel Keller Decider Zachary Quinto is a big reason why Brilliant Minds works in its first episode. But for it to continue to work, the rest of the characters need to be developed, and Quinto’s character needs to have his flaws explored in more depth. Sep 26, 2024 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba The series takes someone who thinks outside the box and confines him to a procedural formula. It works for what it is, and the blend of prickliness and sentimentality will likely resonate with its target audience. Sep 25, 2024 Full Review Alan Pergament Buffalo News I wasn’t moved until watching the third episode. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Cathy A I really enjoyed this show. I love that the physicians don't give up on figuring out how to help their patients. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/04/24 Full Review Angel C House wannabe with ridiculous concepts. Felt nothing for any of the characters. Mught not make it to S2 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 10/03/24 Full Review TheGoodguy J That its based on someone real and the cases are super interesting, really makes this a good watch. The cast is really good. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Peter K Wow! As a psych major this show is amazing! Brilliantly-casted and supurbly-acted; this has to be one of the blow-away hits of the new season. This is a real step-up, Dr. Spock! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 09/28/24 Full Review William R. P It's HOUSE again for mental cases, right? Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Audience Member I am a Psychology Major, and so this show is perfect for that. If you have seen House M.D., it has the feel of that while being about the neuro-side of medical shows, which is something new and amazing.
