SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?
View MoreNot even bad in a good way
Gripping story with well-crafted characters
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreFor every hour of programming, you have 40 minutes of the banal home life of the doctor, 15 minutes of establishing shots, and 5 minutes of actual content. I zipped through a whole season in about two hours, and I could have done it in less.Do you remember the episode of Friends where Monica put Phoebe in charge of cups? And Phoebe went nuts making everything out of cups? Well, I think they told some film student he could do the transitions and establishing scenes, and in an attempt at seizing the spotlight he produced a ridiculous amount of them. Between each scene is 5 minutes of storefronts and the same damn statue over and over again with the occasional fancy wipe. This is beyond tedious.Yet that seems interesting in comparison to the home scenes. Thrill while the wife discusses a remodel! Sit on the edge of your seat when the doctor is late for Tae Kwon Do! Absorb yourself in the 70th identical discussion about how much time he spends with his family! You get the picture. I don't know why anyone would sit through this part of the show. They are uninteresting people leading uninteresting lives.When you finally get to the surgery, there are some pretty good parts. They had an expert discuss the cultural reason an anonymous Muslim woman is getting a hymen restoration. There are plenty of patients with botched surgeries and the innovative techniques the doctors use to fix them (it's more difficult than a regular procedure). You also get to see how people come to obsess over their perceived imperfections, how models/actresses can't get work when they're beautiful but flawed, and the tremendous relief of fixing a physical deformity that has haunted the patient for years.
View MoreWow! I'm in awe each and every time I see the show. It's amazing what can be done these days to preserve youth. Dr. Rey is one of the kindest doctors I have ever encountered. I love the way he walks into the office where the patient is anxiously awaiting and just bursts in with smiles and complements! Also, Dr. Rey has got it going' on with his wardrobe. I love the bold colors! Whoever helps him decide what to wear on the show really knows their stuff! Now, about Ms. Haley. Y'all quit hatin'! I know, sometimes her ideas seem a bit uncompromising, but one thing is for sure, Dr. Rey is crazy about her, so I will put up with watching her out of respect for him. I do, believe, however, that Dr. Rey has a right to go see his father! I don't care what he did in the past, it's still his one and only father for this lifetime, and secondly, it will probably give Dr. Rey some closure by making the journey home.
View MoreI really enjoy watching the show. Especially Dr. Ray. He is so handsome and so sweet. I think he doesn't treat his patients like patients, but more like friends. I wish he was working here, so I could pay him a visit. It seems like he would give you an honest advice on any surgery you would like to do. I also saw the show when he drove to Mexico to help the people. This was a real emotional show. It made you see another side of him. He is just a wonderful person. You can also see that he is a real family man, loves his wife and children. But he is just to busy with work, to fully enjoy their company. I think that his wife does understand that he has a busy schedule at the clinic, but still she would prefer to spend more time with him (who wouldn't??). But it seems that he does find time to do his martial arts. This is excellent. After spending a whole day operating on people or at his office, it is a good thing to relax like this. And it keeps him in shape also. Just imagine having a plastic surgeon who does not look good. He wouldn't have any patients ! He just turned 45 years, but he looks like 30. Isn't that fantastic ?
View MoreI love watching "Dr 90210" each and every episode...except for "Haley Rey"........ Haley looks "sick" all the time. I think she want to be a "Trophy Wife" instead of helping Robert achieve his karate belts...... ....(smile) Can you give us more episodes with just Dr. Rey..........I am a "BIG" fan of his. Also, what happen to the two doctors featured in the very first two episodes??? I believe they were also located in Beverly Hills....Will there be more episodes with the doctor that just got married to another doctor. How long has Dr Li been practicing? Will there be a wedding for the two brothers that are sharing the practice. There was a hint in last night's episode..
