The Good Doctor Season 6 Episode 16 Recap
ABC is set to release a spin-off of The Good Doctor, named The Good Lawyer. Episode 16 served as a de facto pilot for The Good Lawyer. It introduced Joni, a young lawyer who represents Dr. Murphy in a lawsuit.
In the previous episode, Bob Patton sues Shaun over the amputation of his hand. Janet and Glassman suggest Shaun settle but he opts to go to trial. He asks Joni, a lawyer with OCD, to represent him in the lawsuit. Joni, expertly, turns the testimony of Patton’s key witness in Shaun’s favor. Joni wins the suit for Shaun while exemplifying how differences don’t define a person or their abilities.
There are similarities in the characters of Joni and Shaun. Shaun is autistic and Joni is neurodivergent. These challenges hinder them to do their jobs but they, certainly, don’t stop them from doing it to the best of their potential. The episode gave us a glimpse of the web of thoughts that run through Joni’s head and how she deals with them. It is not that easy to deal with all of her thoughts, but nevertheless, she manages herself well.
As for the spinoff series The Good Lawyer, We are yet to have details about the show. The show is expected to release in the fall of 2023. Other than that, ABC has not let out about the spinoff much. It should be interesting to see where things go from here as the pilot looked quite promising.
