Debuting in 2021, Dr. Death chronicles the botched surgeries performed in Texas by surgeon Christopher Duntsch, as well as the efforts by colleagues Dr. Henderson and Dr. Kirby to stop him.

The first two episodes introduce our characters and bounce around between several timelines, including 2012 and 1991, when Duntsch abandoned College football to become a doctor.

Featuring Joshua Jackson, Alec Baldwin, Christian Slater and Grace Gummer, Dr. Death will make your ears wince (the surgery foley!) and your blood boil (the cover-up by medical professionals!)
