记得看完《大白鲨》之后很久都对海滩有恐惧感。这部《死亡医生》也有类似的观感，一直在寻思以后不要看医生了，退一步又想干脆还是不要生病了——尽管理性告诉自己这样的医生并不多见（贬义）。

《死亡医生》不是恐怖片，没有诸如尖叫或阴森的音乐等传统恐怖元素，主角甚至多数时候都是笑容可掬，但是观看过程却一直觉得后背发凉；主创也无意将它做成悬疑剧，事情明摆在那里了，主要讲述两个好医生，亨德森和科比，还有一个年轻的检察官在扳倒坏医生邓奇的路上所遇到的种种阻碍，揭露恶魔的同时抨击僵化的体制；谢天谢地它不是心理探索剧，后面Ebert的剧评里也讲到了这一点，用不着找原因替恶魔开脱。

本剧将死于医生的患者数据通过具体的人表现出来，因为可能发生在每个人身上，所以更容易引起共鸣。

第四集临结尾两个好医生找到检察官，舒加特女士有过好几次特写镜头，就猜到下半场大概率以她为主导，从医学调查转入诉讼，刑事调查不是重点，关键是如何有效立案，给死亡医生最重的处罚。

舒加特女士所问的，也是在看剧过程中我一直想问的，一个做事如此不周密的人是如何一步一步成为主刀医生的——《实习医生格蕾》等剧中的小大夫想得到手术机会都要明争暗抢机关算尽，而邓奇轻而易举就拿到了刀。手术室政治让巡回护士、X线技师等面对他的屠夫行为敢怒不敢言；类似贝勒等医疗机构的逐利之心蒙蔽了监管层的双眼；冗长的司法过程让受害者退却，剧中提到过即使赢了也只有25万的赔偿，律师不可以分这种钱，意味着没人愿意接类似官司。

当舒加特女士初见两位好医生时，他们因为她的年轻而受到了冒犯，觉得地区检察官不够重视。舒加特女士自己也说：”对你们来说我可能是too young too woman“。

我想邓奇能够很容易得到别人的信任，他白人男性的身份帮助不小。换个肤色换个性别可能就行不通了。

第五集手术之后，同台的医生直面邓奇，谴责他不是医生是屠夫。邓奇居然笑了出来。

豆瓣简介里说男主“聪明有魅力”，说实话我没发现邓奇此人有任何优点。嗑药酗酒谎话连篇，连基本的生活能力都没有，钥匙经常性忘记在门上；从年轻时打橄榄球开始就分不清楚左和右，这个问题一直到手术时还存在；第五集他没有办法安装好婴儿床，而他的解决办法是指责一旁打下手的温迪，最后一跑了之。之前某集科比医生形容他的手术，”就像安装宜家的东西，安完后发现还有一袋螺丝（没用上）“，是婴儿床一幕的伏笔吧。

邓奇对待他的每个病人，就像渣男对待每个女人，开始时甜言蜜语、殷勤备至，得手后立刻换一副嘴脸。只不过邓特的得手，是夺走别人正常生活的能力甚至生命。他对自己孩子的母亲温迪和好友杰瑞也是一样，用后即弃。在抛弃过程中他表现出来的厌恶和嫌弃真是太让人心寒以及恶心了。

只有Kim Morgan很快发现了邓奇的真面目，然后果断离开。确实是聪明的女人，面试时就指出邓奇诊所的种种问题。演员Grace Gummer，以前看过她的《医缘》，是很有潜力的演员，这次《死亡医生》比《医缘》表现更好。不得不提一句（Grace本人可能不喜欢这样介绍啦），她的母亲是赫赫有名的梅丽尔-斯特里普，仔细看眉眼还挺像呢。【更正：演《医缘》（Emily Owens M.D.）的，不是Grace，而是斯特里普的另一个女儿麦米-古默，Mamie还在《基本演绎法》S3E6演过凶手。姐妹俩长得很像。Grace的代表作是《美国恐怖故事》等】

邓奇给Kim的这封电子邮件会起关键作用吧？这么明确地表示自己就是个冷血杀手和反社会。这部剧目前还没看到浪费的镜头或台词，邓特办公室里有一个坏了的灯曾经有人问起过，邓特以自己舞技不好支支吾吾，几集之后剧里交待了坏的原因。

第六集打电话骗老爸的钱，电话亭旁边有骷髅的涂鸦。很有心的镜头。

Roger Ebert关于《死亡医生》的评论

原作者是Ebert团队的Brian Tallerico，国外的专业影评人是看到全部八集以后写的评论，给了3/4的评分。【】内是我的想法，不是翻译。

Peacock’sintelligent and gripping“Dr. Death,” based on the podcast of the same name, avoids the pitfalls of many true crime narratives,smartlyrealizing that a monster like Christopher Duntsch can’t be explained in an eight-episode mini-series. I have a strong aversion to projects about sociopaths that attempt to explain them away via abusive pasts or other supposed “reasons” for their actions. Those ideas proliferate because of a human need to try and compartmentalize evil, but men like Chris Duntsch can’t be so easily explained, and this series about his rise and fall understands that. Withexcellent performancesand a procedural tone that interrogates an entire system instead of just one man, “Dr. Death” is asolid dramaabout a man who thought he could play God but never realized he wasn’t talented or smart enough to do so.

【intelligent，gripping，smartly，excellent performance，solid drama，极尽赞美之词。明确表示自己不喜欢心理探索，给恶魔人性化的描写，或者给他一个被虐待的童年什么的，完全用不着。这段也承认八集是写不明白男主这样的恶魔的，他就是一个想扮演上帝的人，却不够聪明，也不够有才华——如果先天不聪明，也可能通过后天的努力获得才华，但邓奇只想走捷径。】

A rising star in the Dallas medical community, Christopher Duntsch (Joshua Jackson) promised life-changing procedures to his patients, most of whom came to him at the lowest points in their lives. He claimed to be a pioneer in stem cell research that would forever change those afflicted with spinal issues, and his neurosurgery practice seemed like it was on the rise when patients suddenly started coming out of his procedures maimed or worse. A neurosurgeon named Robert Henderson (Alec Baldwin) who was called in to clean up one of Duntsch’s botched surgeries realized the borderline insane situation with which he was dealing and aligned with a colleague named Randall Kirby (Christian Slater) to try and get Duntsch’s license taken away. As they investigated Duntsch’s many failures, they realized the depth of his depravity, and the whole thing turned into a legal case, led by a young Dallas prosecutor named Michelle Shugart (AnnaSophia Robb), who eventually prosecuted Duntsch in a precedent-setting trial.

【基本剧情介绍】

Created by Patrick Macmanus (“Homecoming”), “Dr. Death” jumps back and forth between the developing case—first focusing on Henderson/Kirby’s medical investigation and then the legal one with Shugart—and flashbacks to Duntsch’s procedures and personal life. The show opens with disclaimers about some names and facts changed for fiction’s sake, but the version of Duntsch here is avile user, someone who discarded not just patients but everyone who helped him along the way, including his son’s mother (Molly Griggs). Even Duntsch's best friend Jerry (Dominic Burgess) ended up one of his victims after a spinal surgery paralyzed him. The portrait of Duntsch here is someone who impresses at first, especially those on hospital boards who might make money off a hotshot neurosurgeon, but whose façade eventually crumbles, taking anyone around into the rubble. It certainly does for a confident physician’s assistant (an effective Grace Gummer), who sees firsthand the corners that Duntsch is willing to cut.

【这个版本的邓特就是恶毒的利用者】

The flashbacks present a man who somehow thought he could push through any adversity. That’s one thing when you’re repeatedly getting a play wrong in a football practice, and quite another when you’re incapable of performing the spinal surgeries that you’ve promised your patients. And yet “Dr. Death” smartly never resorts to humanizing Duntsch, who sees his mistakes as mere common malpractice all the way up to the end. What’s so disturbing about this case is the idea, raised a few times here, that Duntsch must have known what he was doing in a few instances. Is it possible he was a literal sociopath and maimed his patients on purpose? Dr. Henderson sure seems to think so as he explains how the violence from Duntsch’s surgeries would be hard to call accidental. It sounds like even someone who had never performed a surgery would know that they were doing something very wrong. Did Duntsch? Did he just not care? We'll never know, and "Dr. Death"wiselyonly hints at these darker themes instead of turning into melodrama. It makes them all the more terrifying.

【闪回中的橄榄球训练，就像以后一次次的手术，邓特以为他能推开各种阻碍。然而一次一次犯错，球赛中和手术台上所造成的后果完全不一样。这段又用wisely形容这部剧。】

The generally underrated Joshua Jackson carries “Dr. Death” with a fascinating blend of idiotic confidence and nonchalant sociopathology. He nails the ego that often hides incompetence, embodying a person who thinks he can merely work around inadequacy. We’ve all met men like Chris Duntsch—people that think if they tell themselves that they can change the world that it will somehow be true. What separates this story is that most of those people get shot down before they can do real harm, but Duntsch was enabled again and again. There’s a fascinating undercurrent to “Dr. Death” that reminded me of “Spotlight,” another story of vile predators who were moved around a broken system instead of brought to justice. Duntsch was allowed to perform dozens of life-changing bad surgeries and even killed a couple people before upstanding fellow surgeons took him down.

【Joshua Jackson这个演员确实不错。这部剧让剧评作者联想到《聚焦》，都是在溃烂的体制中横行的恶魔。】

The whole cast matches Jackson’s nuance, especially Slater and Baldwin. It’s particularly rewarding to see the latter get a subtle, complex role for the first time in what feels like a long time—there’s a quiet fury and professional disgust to his performance that’s admirable. And Slater balances him nicely with a more brash, outgoing performance so the two don’t feel like the same character. Robb is definitely good, but I’ll admit to liking the first half of the season more when Baldwin/Slater were driving the investigation instead of the legal hotshot. The transition leads to a bit of a drag in the middle of the season and I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention thefat suitprosthetics that Jackson is forced to act through in the last couple episodes, which are a drastic misfire. Each episode opens with the disclaimer that some of the truth has been bent, and I get that the fat suit is meant to further represent Duntsch’s decline, but it’s just distracting.

【其他演员也相当优秀。看到第六集才知道这里的“fat suit”是什么意思，邓特开始发胖了，所以演员穿了fat suit，象征着邓特“光辉岁月”的终结，但剧评作者不太喜欢这个安排，让他出戏，我觉得还好啦。另外说明一点的是，戒酒的人血糖会低，所以他们都会大量吃糖或巧克力等补充糖分。第六集邓特在爸爸家里喝咖啡疯狂放糖。】

Finally, it’s important to note that “Dr. Death” never feels sensational or exploitative, expressing the empathy for Duntsch’s victims he so clearly lacked. It’s ultimately a castigation of a system that values profits over professionalism, and tells young upstarts like Duntsch that they'll be the faces of a medical revolution before asking if the person with the scalpel is at all capable of leading the way.

【还是，动手术前想想拿刀的人是谁。】

写完了，最后两集还没更新，继续等~~

第七集，手术服裤子上的洞原来是这么来的~~

科比和亨德森两个医生性格互补，一个沉稳，一个外向略暴躁。科比在生活上不拘小节，之前某集把脚丫跷到亨德森的办公桌上；这集又瞎说俄语，“达斯维达尼亚”是再见的意思，他用来打招呼。哈哈哈哈，太可爱了。

两个好医生都衬托了邓奇的恶。亨德森说过，失去过一个患者，一直让他耿耿于怀，庭审时也说他哪怕有过邓奇33例手术中的一例结果，也不会再进手术室。科比虽然生活中大大咧咧，但专业上极认真。正是有这样的好医生，我们才能放心地去海滩，哦不是，去医院看病，信任医生。

其他配角也都映衬了男主，听完邓奇说话之后觉得每个人说话都非常让人舒服。甚至他的律师，思维和谈吐都远远好过邓奇本人，能想到把责任推到大学和各级培训医院，也是相当敬业的律师。而舒加特这一方赢得坦荡荡，没有使诈。特别喜欢法庭戏上他们用排比句。亨德森背诵希波克拉底誓言一段太热血了。

Kim拿枪逼退邓奇的样子简直太帅了。广大年轻女孩应该以此为榜样，正确面对感情中的失败，遇上人渣不是你们的错，果断离开是正确选择。生命太短，容不得犹豫和反复。提高生命效率啊朋友们！

杰瑞-萨默斯就执迷不悟，是Kim的对比。

人物包括每个患者及家属都各有特色，虽然角色也不少，但看完以后都历历在目的感觉。Beyer夫人出场时我还记得她第一次说自己名字的发音，“象那种动物”。去世的Brennan夫人，受伤仅仅是装饰圣诞树时脚下的一个不稳。每个角色都塑造得很成功。

保护患者，健全体制。

任重而道远。

死亡医生里庭审自相矛盾的地方：出于正义的目的，为了让死亡医生终身监禁不再有任何机会害人，检方必须证明该医生是故意杀人，而不是被系统腐败宠溺的外科医生里的“熊孩子”（在一个复杂的法律体系里，却只有一种奇怪的非黑即白），必须证明这个死亡医生手术致死三十三个人，是出于他的自我（我对这一命题的解释是：还用“专门去作恶吗？”——一个人如果一天二十四小时每分每秒都自负都傲慢都自以为是，如果他在任何大小事情和细节里都忠于他的自负和权力的傲慢，他就自动相当于一个故意草菅人命的人），而非医疗界系统性的腐败导致对一个没有自我意识的人的纵容，但持有这一观点的检察官继续说出了她不自知的自相矛盾：如果陪审团今天不去阻止，这个医生会继续行医。那么，她声称的陪审团本身的决定权就已经说明了这种系统性纵容的决定性。那么，回过头来，总的来说，还是系统性的腐败决定了一切，而且，系统性腐败是乖巧的，灵巧的，总是在空出一个坏人的形象。

7/22/2021 一下午刷完 很多感想 凭我多年看剧经验 这部剧弱在开头了 题材很好 切入点也很好 结构完整 表达清晰 镜头语言也算到位 中规中矩 没有特别惊艳也并不出格 但不好的地方在于多线程叙事的开头做得太弱了 时间太混乱 没有一个清晰的 引人注目的点 我前四集都是晕着看的 经常弄不清楚目前这段儿讲的是啥时候的事 而且所铺设的伏笔真的太小了 没耐心看下去的人就特别容易错过 这么低的豆瓣评分 我差一丁点儿就也要弃剧了 还是故事本身太过令人震惊 那可真尼玛震惊 越往下看越觉得浑身冒冷汗.. 大概看了下短评 竟然不少人差评原因是为主角洗白 我手动黑人问号脸！ 整个剧看下来只会觉得主角恐怖地很 完全缺乏共情 职场/恋爱PUA达人 低气压营造者 后几集我冷汗都没停过 竟然有人说洗白男主 再次手动黑人问号..

认真看的同学们都能看出来 剧中提到的几个医院 特别是贝勒 绝对有不可推卸的责任 而且ASA的辩论最后陈词其实特别好 这个证明意图的方法我没想到 辩护方显然也没想到 而且我大概查了一下 这个案子是此类案子的先例 对以后的判定都有指导意义 这也是这部剧精彩的一段

三个老戏骨表现不错 男主估计今晚会出现在我噩梦中 baldwin最后那段陈词十分很给力 Slater吐槽真心帮观众疏解情绪 几个我不太认识的配角也都不错 summers 实惨 还有 男主他爸 没出场几分钟 却让我印象深刻 别的患者们 我天…每每看到他们躺病床上被推进去 都尼玛揪心..

整体来说 我还是会推荐给我的朋友们的 家父就是外科大夫 耳濡目染 我也能感受到当外科大夫所需要的精力体力和手上功夫（他跟我妈结婚时的家具都是自己做的！）所以看这个剧经常会发出 wc fk等不和谐音 震惊到我了 我知道我以后都不会再是之前的我了 我以后在美国看大夫 一定会先刨根挖底一番

30 Rock 萌萌霸道总裁Alex 黑客军团 幻影老爹 Slate 再加 Fringe 神剧男主 神仙组合预告片一秒拉我入坑。。。。。。The scene in the room like slaughter house…… based on truth story….the puzzle remains : how a man getting out of prestigious medical program, prestigious residency , gaining numerous prestigious scores, having such heinous performance in practice and getting away (╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ two of his colleagues trying to figure out, gathering evidence and reporting their findings to Texas Medical Board

该剧改编自真实案件，讲述反社会人格的医生，开篇赚足噱头，往后又涉及到美国医疗体系、司法体系的社会弊端，很有现实意义，另外选角方面更是极具舒适度。总体绝对在水准之上的，剧荒下饭可。

局限在于个别人物前后矛盾的态度及其转变原因没有交代清楚。所以个人认为在故事叙述完成度上来说，八集短了点，评论区大多不满在于觉得剧情拖沓，嫌弃坏人逍遥法外太久，虽然我也深有同感，但老实讲，支线剧情也算不上无聊或者说“水”。导演没有过多停留在受害者苦难处来制造煽情，而是将主要篇幅用在对医生的人物刻画、背景交代，而这些又是很必要的。

所以观感上的冗长大概主要怪原型人物太差劲，引不起观众兴趣；其次导演编剧没能抓住观众想看的点，比如我比较期待两位侦探医生，萌妹检察官等高光人物的展开，又或关于善良无辜受害者的细节，以及屠夫医生这么做的自白等等。最后，第八集的法庭环节还是蛮多精彩之处的，该剧至少7.5以上比较合理啦~

最后最后，原来Kim和傲骨贤妻里的律师真的是姐妹阿omg
