You must be able to control the volume on your TV to get through the lead actress's screeching for many of the earlier episodes. But watching the lead male actor makes even that worthwhile. His many personalities range from frightening, to lovable, and from romantic to comical. There's mystery, romance, drama, action, and comedy, throughout with a satisfying ending to tie them all together. This was my first encounter with the lead actor, but not my last. I just found Dr. John and loving it as well!
