Like Season 4 of The Good Doctor, Doc’s screenwriters decided to tell us about the Covid epidemic in a timely manner and show us “Next.” A temporary ellipse that interferes with episode 2 and will not be in vain as some of the doctors we have learned to love will not show up in this new explosion of episodes.
