BAÑOS2 1Cátedra de Bioética. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya.2 Facultad de Medicina. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya (Spain). e-mail: [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 9 July 2019 Fecha de aceptación: 5 September 2019 Fecha del Avance On-Line: Fecha de publicación: 1 June 2020 Summary Over the years, the way medical dramas represent health professionals has changed. When the first medical dramas were broadcasted, the main characters were good, peaceful, intelligent, competent, empathic, and successful physicians. One of the most famous, even outside the US, was Marcus Welby M.D. (1969-1976) of David Victor –which this year marks 50 years since its first emission. This depiction began to change in the mid-1990s. While maintaining the over positive image of medical doctors, TV series started to put more emphasis on their negative characteristics and difficulties in their interpersonal relationships, such asER (TV) by Michael Crichton (United States) and House MD (TV) by David Shore (United States). In these series, physicians were portrayed as arrogant, greedy, and adulterous, and their diagnostic and therapeutic errors were exposed. The last two series are The Good Doctor (TV) by David Shore (United States), with a resident of surgery with autism and Savant syndrome, and The Resident (TV) by Amy Holden Jones, Hayley Schore and Roshan Sethi (United States), where serious institutional problems appear.
