Dr Death S1-2
The first season of Dr Death – with Joshua Jackson as Christopher Duntsch – was nominated for Best Limited Series at the Critics Choice Awards and Best Horror Series at the Critics Choice Super Awards, among other accolades.
Now the true-crime anthology series is back, this time focusing on “Miracle Man” Paolo Macchiarini, a charming surgeon renowned for his innovative operations. When investigative journalist Benita Alexander approaches him for a story, the line between personal and professional begins to blur, changing her life forever. As she learns how far Paolo will go to protect his secrets, a group of doctors halfway across the world make shocking discoveries of their own that call everything about Paolo into question.
Emmy nominees Edgar Ramirez (The Assassination of Gianni Versace) and Mandy Moore (This is Us) co-star.
Dr. Death S2 has an 80% critics’ rating on Rotten Tomatoes. As The Daily Beast says: “Dr. Death works by playing on the primal fear of betrayal by those who hold our lives in their hands and choose to play not God but the devil. The fact that there are enough such cases to keep a podcast and television series going is disturbing.”
