The Mob Doctor (2012–2013)
1/10
Don't waste your time

Warning: Spoilers
I tuned in, because the premise intrigued me. By the time it was over, I decided that there went 60 minutes of my life that I'll never get back again. This was an absolutely wretched show featuring several graduates of the Keanu Reeves School of Wooden Acting. The lead actress, Jordana Spiro, is pretty, but that is about all she has going for her. Her character is completely unlikeable. I like characters I can root for, and her's isn't one of them. The only bright spot in the first episode was Michael Rappaport, who is always on his game.

The left wing activism is also a huge turnoff. That was probably my biggest beef on the show. It's alright for her to nudge her boyfriend into performing an abortion on a 14 year old girl, who got pregnant through casual sex, and then as doctors, they lie to her father about it. However, it is not okay for her to let a mobster, who had participated in criminal activity die? Stuff like this is why a lot of people are getting tired of Hollywood forcing their morality on the rest of us.
