    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, and enough bit-by-bit progress as the doctors investigate and bounce theories off one another. The stories are rich, rather than perfunctory.

    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.

    The supporting characters (many of whom have their own one-in-a-million neurological disorders, go figure) are far more interesting than Oliver is, despite attempts to make Oliver sympathetic through copious and boring flashbacks to his childhood. A sob-worthy backstory doesn't make the present-day man any less wooden on screen.
