Discuss Anything About Mental Here



Psychiatrist Jack Gallagher handles his mental health patients at a Los Angeles hospital with unorthodox treatments. He is overseen by Nora, the department administrator who is also his ex-lover. This FOX project is the first U.S. English-language drama to be shot in Colombia.

I Think this great new show so far my favourite preview is number 1

This gave me a Lie to Me/House vibe...not really impressed by either (House has been letting me down for the past two years). What makes this different? I'll watch the promos again but I'll consider watching this if you think it's decent and will go somewhere.

It's set in a mental institution so there bound to be some funny patient-how can you say it like house or lie to me there are both different show.

It's just the vibe that the main character is above all of his staff...I don't know how to describe it. Mental is on my list this week.

i get that what you mean but I'm not sure if you saw the first episode or not ?

if you did you notice he does the dirty work himself unlike house who gets his interns to dirty work

I haven't seen the first episode and if there aren't any good movies updated today on the movie site, I'll be watching this. That's the funny thing about House...just him, his cane and his Vicodin .

Thanks bala so much...and I guess that means I will not be able to see Mental tonight . I've been wanting to see He's Just Not That Into You for a long time...harmless chick flick. Today's been great so far...

It's so far ok film and only 15 minutes into a 2 hour movie .
Author: redsoxpatriot30    Time: 5-30-2009 07:36     Subject: Reply #18 bala's post

I don't mind that it's 2 hours...as long as it's watchable or funny. Does it go back and forth a lot between the couples?
Author: bala    Time: 5-30-2009 07:39     Subject: Reply 19#19 redsoxpatriot30's post

yeah it does but i don't know so far I'm not feeling it -i think hype is over-rated but it does have a point-women are so funny when they can't tell whether a guy brushing them off.  that poor women

Hi Bala.  I watched episode # 1 and I am not really sure if I like it or not.  I am going to give the show a chance and watch episode # 2. You make the show sound interesting in your post.

Can you make Obsessed or Nurse Jackie sound interesting
Author: bala    Time: 6-3-2009 05:45     Subject: Reply 27#27 codebreaker's post

Obsessed  is a film not a tv show ?

Nurse Jackie is interesting show about a nurse who go beyond what a nurse should which involved flushing a patient ear down a toilet and fiddling patient insurance when patient doesn't have insurance and her boss is her best friend who also going through a break-up depends on nurse Jackie cheer her up which where she tells her all bad things she done during her shift.

How does that sound?

David Carradine was in this episode . It was strange seeing him in this episode knowing he dead but Still this episode wasn't as good as other two

I was surprised the family allowed this episode to be aired so soon after his recent death

Well it was last performance
Author: codebreaker    Time: 6-17-2009 00:48     Subject: Episode 4 Manic at the Disco

The 8-year-old bipolar boy playing video games was interesting nice addition of the back pack but i didn't expect his mother to walk out on him. I am glad Nora made up with her daughter after finding the provocative pictures

It was interesting episode  the computer graphics represent what was going through his mind was interesting way to present the episode-it's very unique and amazing i really do hope this does successful. it very similar to house showing what going through the patient.

Author: bala    Time: 7-17-2009 22:04

Jack and his schizophrenic sister are reunited but there seems to be a bit of tension between Jack and his stepfather but it was nice to see Jack smile when he helped with the war veteran

Yes it was general fault for the situation

Jack sees a therapist about his recent problems and says he has a decision to make about leaving his job and a man trying to check himself into the psych ward claims to be a werewolf but Dr. Carl Belle gives him a pill and sends him home 1 hour before a full moon with tragic consequences when he turns up at Jack's place, Wow great ending with Jack punching Carl and getting fired.
