The series’ measured tone allows the richness of the characters and the dialogue to shine, even though much of the narrative is laden with medical jargon.
-
It’s not a comedy, but in a way it is — second chances and all. And Parker, who shines a light all over the show, is particularly delightful and moving in her reborn persona. “Doc” can be a little corny, a little too obviously like television, when it comes to the cases, but is all in all quite entertaining.

Doc ultimately doesn’t break a lot of new ground, but it doesn’t need to. .... Parker’s nuanced lead performance — and the fact the writing doesn’t let Amy off the hook for her attitude or smooth down her rough edges — makes the show worth a watch and distinguishes it from similar fare.
