Everwood (2002–2006)
7/10
Missed opportunity

Warning: Spoilers
I've been enjoying this show but the number of missed opportunities to educate about head injury is a lot. A lot al lot.

Folks with Traumatic Brain Injury often show the kinds of symptoms Colin does on Everwood, but the show doesn't explain any of it. The doctors don't seem to know basic things about seizure, aggression, memory, etc. The time frame for the characters recovery is sped up for TV, I get that, but...a guy who has seizures and is about to have brain surgery is driving a car? I don't think so.

Lots of good stuff in this show, I am just remarking on this, it's major flaw.
