The Height of Quality and Intelligence
17 June 2015
A superb medical drama that is beautifully written and produced, it is indeed one of the finest ever made for television. Alfred Molina is superb as the head of the hospital and he is not alone in that distinction. Ving Rhames is equally impressive as the emergency room surgical chief and this may be his most outstanding work to date. Bill Irwin is also featured in an excellent portrayal of the doctor in charge of harvesting donated organs and his performance is both funny, moving, and complex. Everything and everyone in this program shines. It is a truly intelligent and emotionally challenging hour that is unique in the history of television. Producer David E. Kelley can be proud of what he achieved with Monday Mornings. Sadly, it was too intelligent for the medium and only lasted one short season. It won't be forgotten by anyone who experienced that time.
