The Good Doctor season 2 – 9/10 on NOW TV

Season two of the hit series will follow Dr Aaron Glassman as he goes through treatment for cancer, with the show creator David Shore telling IndieWire: "To be honest, people seem to die on TV way more than they die in real life. For your regular characters, it seems to be the go-to place. But Glassman's not out of the woods, and I think it's much more realistic and much more interesting and a greater storytelling opportunity to explore that journey of being sick." Meanwhile, Shaun finds himself in trouble after making a nearly fatal error.
