3 LBS. - New Series Premiere - 11/14/06
New series on CBS about brain surgeons starring Stanley Tucci. Anyone gonna watch? Although I am still pissed off at Smith being cancelled, I am still going to give this a shot.
DESCRIPTION:
(from CBS's press release) 3 LBS stars Stanley Tucci ("The Devil Wears Prada") as Doug Hanson, a brilliant neurosurgeon, with a sharp wit, who compares the workings of the brain to wires in a box. On the other hand, his thoughtful highly skilled protg, Dr. Jonathan Seger (Mark Feuerstein, "The West Wing"), who honors the mysteries of the mind, and feels that in order to operate on someone's brain, he needs to know a little bit about the person first. While Hanson prefers to focus on the intricacies inside peoples' craniums instead of the people themselves, Seger uses his charm, instinct and intuition to balance the emotional and psychological needs of his patients. These doctors have opposing points of view on how to treat their patients. However, this doesn't get in the way of their shared obsessions about the brain, and their growing, sometimes secret mutual respect for each other's talents and approaches which includes a healthy dose of humor that is also needed for these jobs.
PRINCIPAL CAST INFORMATION:
· Armando Riesco as Tom Flores
· Indira Varma as Adrianne Holland
· Mark Feuerstein as Jonathan Seger
· Stanley Tucci as Doug Hanson
· Tamara Taylor as Della

I actually made a post last week saying this was already available online at www.cbs.com/innertube. I guess noone watched it yet.
