Bates Motel’s Freddie Highmore has already moved in on a new TV series which will air on Mondays this Fall on ABC.
The show is called The Good Doctor and here’s how ABC describes it:
Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore, “Bates Motel”), a young surgeon with autism and savant syndrome, relocates from a quiet country life to join a prestigious hospital’s surgical unit. Alone in the world and unable to personally connect with those around him, Shaun uses his extraordinary medical gifts to save lives and challenge the skepticism of his colleagues. The series is from David Shore (“House”), and “Lost” and “Hawaii Five-O” star Daniel Dae Kim.
A “first look” teaser trailer and some preview images can be found below; a longer trailer will be available later today.
