No, it's not exactly "House." But it isn't like any other show, either, with its mad mix of moral dilemmas, medical crises, family ties, double-life-living and, y'know, rubouts 'n' stuff.
Despite the frantic and at times clunky initial execution, there are times when The Mob Doctor shows signs of transcending the typical doc-with-something-extra medical procedural.
At its heart, The Mob Doctor feels more like a by-the-numbers CBS procedural than an "edgy" Fox drama.
The pilot is so packed with generic scenes of medical crises and mob muscle-flexing that it feels as if the creators went to a buffet of past series and desperately piled everything they could reach onto the mob doc's plate.
In Fox's new series, The Mob Doctor, trying to reinvent the wheel has led to a truly flat idea.
Fox's preposterous organized crime/medical show combo platter The Mob Doctor manages to be silly and sappy.
It's never good news when you start to watch a new show and can't get past quibbling with the whole concept.
