tumblr user cranberrymoons said it best: "the google reviews for doc odyssey are absolutely littered with one star reviews from middle aged straight people who don't realize they're watching a ryan murphy psychosexual melodramedy featuring a toxic workplace throuple 😔 they're evaluating the medical accuracy of the boat doctor rescues (which btw include such bangers as 'guy who ate too much shrimp and almost died because of it' disease, 'girl whose face melted off because she did too much cocaine after getting a nose job' syndrome, and 'woman who gave herself third degree frost bite by icing her boob job too much' emergency). they think they're experiencing a normal procedural which features cartoonishly macho heterosexuality and an unprofessional love triangle. who is going to tell them that they have no frame of reference for what they're witnessing"
