Adding to the long list of medical dramas, Michael Grassi’s Brilliant Minds is all set to be released on September 23, 2024. World-renowned neurologist, Dr. Oliver Sacks' books and experience have inspired the series, which will focus on the case studies he saw in his lifetime. The show will follow the case studies from The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat and An Anthropologist on Mars.
Fox was initially set to develop the series but dropped out of the project, leading NBC to step in and take over the reins. The show will star Zachary Quinto as Oliver Wolf, whose first name coincidentally mirrors the writer's.
Medical drama and police procedural enthusiasts know that these shows usually get slated for more episodes than most genres. Similarly, Brilliant Minds also offers a longer episode count to dive deeper into the world of Oliver Sacks.
