This was my 10 star review.....We seriously need more shows like this, tired of so many garbage shows out there. The Patient is well written, well acted, unusual show, it's Dexter in psychotherapy. Steve Carell's acting is excellent as usual, very convincing as a Jewish therapist, and Domhnall Gleeson created a strange but somewhat likable Dexter like character, extremely knowledgeable in fine foods because of his profession. Keeps explaining the foods he brings home from restaurants with fancy names and descriptions. The show has dark humor combined with suspense and intellect. I have watched 2 episodes so far and I hope the quality and the momentum of the initial episodes is maintained. I really enjoyed it.... And this is my 5 star review ....after waiting a whole week for the 20 min 3rd episode changed my review to 5 stars. It's like getting a box of chocolates and when you open it there is only one half eaten chocolate.episodes are too short and empty not worth waiting 1 week for a half eaten piece of chocolate. Could have been excellent great acting ,could have been an interesting storyline, it may still be but for now it's not worth the 1 week wait for 20 mins of emptiness.
