After seven seasons, “The Good Doctor” came to a heart-rending conclusion, emotionally devastating the dedicated fans who signed on to say so long to Dr. Shaun Murphy and the rest of the cast and crew who populated San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital.
Variety talked with series star Freddie Highmore (Dr. Shaun Murphy) about saying farewell to the creators and actors he’s shared laborious science monologues and anxiety-inducing surgical scenes with for seven years.
What was the very last scene that you shot as Dr. Shaun Murphy?
The last scene that I filmed was the one where, ultimately, Leah sits down next to Shaun and then talks him into going to becoming aware, I guess, of the situation facing both Claire and Dr. Glassman. That motivates him in the short term to go and speak to Claire [Antonia Thomas] and then come to terms with the fact that Glassman will...

Being loyal to a show is hard when it’s not something that lasts for just a couple of seasons. The storylines change, characters come and go, unsatisfying resolutions happen all the time, making fans start hating what they used to love dearly.
The same happened with The Good Doctor fans several times during the course of the show. The Good Doctor premiered on ABC in 2017 and became a hit immediately because of the unusual premise.
At the center of the medical drama is a young man named Shaun Murphy who suffers from autistic disorder and savant syndrome, but pursues his dream of becoming a surgeon anyway. And succeeds!
For 7 seasons, with the latest season premiering in 2024 and confirmed to be the last, Shaun is shown with many other characters like his mentor Dr. Aaron Glassman and doctors Marcus Andrews and Audrey Lim are going through a lot of drama.

Kayla Cromer (Everything’s Gonna Be Okay) and and Wavyy Jonez (Unsolved) will join ABC’s The Good Doctor in its final season.
Cromer will recur as Charlene ‘Charlie’ Lukaitis, a third-year medical student who’s excited both for this rotation and the chance to work with her hero, Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore). Like Shaun, she has Autism Spectrum Disorder, and she has idolized him since she first saw the viral video of him saving a boy’s life at the San Jose airport. Empowered and energetic, her passion for surgery may only be matched by her love for Taylor Swift.
Jonez will play Dominick ‘Dom’ Hubank, another third-year med student who is hoping this surgical rotation is just a box to check on his way to become the family doctor in his underserved community. But this former football player learns he isn’t as tough as he appears when...

The installment, premiering September 6, stars “NOS4A2” actress Jahkara Smith, as well as McKaley Miller, Scott Porter, Annalisa Cochrane, Ciara Bravo, Jim Klock and T.C. Carter.

There are few Emmy categories as consistently dramatic as Best Actress in a Drama Series. Which is why for this week’s TV Talk, we are placing our bets on a showdown between Emmy royalty and real-life royalty brought to the small screen.
Listen below as we spar over why the Best Actress race could eventually be The Handmaid’s Tale’s Elisabeth Moss vs. The Crown’s Claire Foy.
Moss of course won the Best Actress trophy last year for the Hulu drama based on Margaret Atwood’s dystopian novel, with the series itself winning the Outstanding Drama Series Emmy — a first for a streaming service. (Its Season 2 just premiered and it already has been renewed for Season 3.)
On the other hand, as Queen Elizabeth II, contender Foy is holding a lot of potential aces including an Emmy nomination last year and a Golden Globe win.

Spoiler Alert: This story contains details of tonight’s Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G. finale on USA Network.
“There was a lot of information that was spilled in Unsolved that hasn’t been touched on,” Wavyy Jonez says of Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G. in our latest installment of Next Generation TV. “You’ll get closure,” adds Marcc Rose of tonight’s finale of the USA Network series, on which he plays Tupac Shakur to Jonez’s Biggie. “And you have a few final testimonies,” he adds of the limited series that co-stars Jimmi Simpson, Bokeem Woodbine and Josh Duhamel.

Tonight, Season 1 of USA Network’s scripted true crime series “Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G.” will end with an episode titled “Unsolved?” That sounds about right for creator Kyle Long, who believes it is actually pretty obvious what happened here. At least in the case of the 1996 murder of rapper Tupac Shakur.
“I would say, in regards to the Tupac murder, I think it’s — you know — very clear what happened,” Long told TheWrap in an interview last week. “There’s elements of it that are questionable, but certainly Keffe D and the Southside Crips killed Tupac Shakur. And it is outrageous that Keffe D is not in jail. And that should be in the article.”
“In the [‘Unsolved’] finale, when you see why the whole Keffe D thing, how he had immunity and that — long story short, in real life and in the television show, he had immunity to make this confession to the task force,” Long said of the Southside Crips member and the late Orlando Anderson’s uncle, real name Duane Keith Davis. “When the task force fell apart he still had immunity.”

“But this guy, this year — no one is talking about this, but I guess people just don’t care about Tupac Shakur, a young black man — he, this guy goes on a documentary this year and tells a version of the same story, he tries to go all cute and say, ‘I don’t know who triggered there,'” Long said. “But he talked about being in the car with the Crips, they specifically went to hunt [Tupac] down and then Tupac gets shot, you just have to say who pulled the trigger.”
However, Long says it ultimately “doesn’t matter that he doesn’t say who pulled the trigger.”
“He went live on television and confessed to being an accessory to murder and the Las Vegas Pd, as far as I know, is doing nothing about it,” Long continued. “And I just think it’s outrageous. I just don’t understand it. It makes me upset. And it’s just crazy town to me. It is so wild that a guy can — and I don’t know what kind of lawyer he has telling him to go on this television show and talk about it, but you know, it’s crazy. So that’s my rant about Keffe D and the Tupac murder, like to me, that murder, you could go arrest someone for that right now.”
Also Read: Why USA's Tupac and Biggie Series Doesn't Have Tupac and Biggie Music
Long is referencing an episode of Bet’s “Death Row Chronicles” docuseries which aired in February and featured interviews with Davis and former Lapd detective Greg Kading about Shakur’s murder.
Kading, who wrote the book “Murder Rap: The Untold Story of Biggie Smalls & Tupac Shakur Murder Investigations,” is one of the key characters in the show “Unsolved” (played by Josh Duhamel), as he led investigations into the murders of Shakur and Christopher Wallace aka Biggie Smalls. He is also a co-executive producer on the USA series.
Multiple attempts by TheWrap to reach Davis for comment for this story were unsuccessful. All phone calls made to numbers associated with Davis went unreturned or led to disconnected lines. Emails sent to addresses associated with Davis and his relatives went unanswered. Both Bet and NBCUniversal did not have current contact information for Davis. Attempts to locate contact information for Davis through arrest records and to reach Wayne Higgins — an attorney who is listed in court documents as having previously represented Davis — were also unsuccessful.

“Unsolved” chronicles the stories of the police investigations led by Kading (Josh Duhamel) and Detective Russell Poole (Jimmi Simpson) into the murders of Tupac Shakur (Marcc Rose) and Biggie Smalls (Wavyy Jonez).
Long penned the script and executive produces along with director Anthony Hemingway (“The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story”) and Mark Taylor.

The season 1 finale of “Unsolved” airs Tuesday at 10/9 c on USA.

East Coast vs. West Coast. That's a good place to start when it comes to the late Biggie Smalls and Tupac Shakur's tumultuous relationship. The rappers are back in the mind of the public due to USA's Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac and the Notorious B.I.G.. The new true crime anthology is focusing on the mysterious murders of Tupac and Biggie (born Christopher Wallace) in the late 1990s. The 10-episode season will give viewers a peek into the friendship turned rivalry between the successful stars. To understand the complicated history, we have to look at where these two icons started. Pac and Biggie first met in La during the year of 1993. The Brooklyn-based Biggie first met to the La-based artist at a party. The two immediately jived together over laughs, food, and a little weed according to Ben Westhoff's Original Gangstas: The Untold Story of Dr. Dre, Eazy-e,...

For a show called (branded, really) “Unsolved,” the first season certainly drives toward a definitive ending. The new USA anthology series serves as a detailed, time-jumping, and exploratory journey into multiple, years-long investigations, but it isn’t a nuanced take on the criminal justice system (or nuanced at all, for that matter). Nor is “Unsolved” a human story meant to honor the victims or the men seeking justice for their deaths. It plays out like a mystery, and by the end of the seventh episode (out of 10 total), “The Murders of Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G.” takes a stand behind one theory.
For cable TV, perhaps that should be expected. It would take a lot of moxie to launch a franchise based around big questions without any answers — kind of like making an entire TV show based around a mystery that will never be solved — and USA’s...
