'The Good Doctor' Season 7 Review — Freddie Highmore Says Farewell

Procedural dramas are set up in a way that allows for them to run for seasons on end as there is always a new case to solve or a surgery to do. Despite its success, The Good Doctor won't make it to Season 20, like the equally popular Grey's Anatomy. It will instead wrap things up with Season 7 after ABC and series creator David Shore came to a consensus about Dr. Shaun Murphy's (played by Freddie Highmore) future onscreen. Even though the series was able to maintain its pacing and could easily continue to entertain audiences for a while longer, it is safe to say that maybe carrying on isn't the right course of action. By ending sooner rather than later, the medical drama can accomplish what few similar titles can — which is achieving a satisfying sense of closure.
