Rueben's Ramblings

The new CBS medical drama Pure Genius will debut on October 27 at 10 PM.

James Bell (Augustus Prew from Klondike and The Borgias) is a Silicon Valley billionaire who dreams of building a hospital with ultimate cutting-edge technology to treat rare and incurable diseases. He partners with a maverick surgeon, Dr. Walter Wallace (Dermot Mulroney from My Best Friend’s Wedding), who leads the effort in clearing out the bureaucracy of medicine, and focus on forward thinking, advancing technology, and saving lives—at no cost to the patient.

The cast includes Odette Annable (House and Brothers & Sisters), Reshma Shetty (Royal Pains), Aaron Jennings (Aquarius and Bones), Ward Horton (Annabelle) and Brenda Song (Scandal and The Social Network).
