As a doctor, this is one of the very few medical shows I can actually watch and enjoy as I'm not completely turned off at the gross inaccuracies, like those of House and Grey's. It is also really, really funny! Smart, fast-paced, and easy to watch. Yes, it's not a high- budget, drama-filled thriller, and there are some cheesy scenes, but overall, a great show. I really hope it doesn't get cancelled!!!

I really don't understand why there are so many haters sabotaging this great show by giving such low ratings. Me(Chinese Canadian) and my bf(Croatian) we both love the show so much, judging by our backgrounds, this show is suitable for different kinds of crowds. Other than ken's brilliant performance of himself and his own life(You need to allow a great comedian to tell you something about his life before he can really jump out of the stereotype and pursue some "ridiculous" dream for doctors,isn't that inspiring?), all the supporting roles are super cute and fun too. Last but not the least, this show talks about all the realistic problems people encounter in life, roots in reality. Sharp tongue like ken is so much better than boring Max from 2 broke girls. I'm not an easy laugh but I always burst into it when I'm watching. Looking forward to seeing more episodes and seasons, Ken! Don't give up! We love your stories!

Dr. Ken is a family show that focuses on the life of a Korean-American doctor. Ken has a wife Allison, who is Japanese-American and a therapist. They have have 2 kids, the typical teenage daughter and the smart odd young son. The show is about Ken's family life and his work life, in both he's a bit clueless to things.I would say this show is passable, it's nothing you'll be very excited to watch, but it's something you can watch. The problem is there's nothing fresh to the show, besides the fact that it's culturally mixed, which is great. But it's not very funny, the writing is basic, and the delivery on acting is just okay.The cast and characters are great, but the writing is too weak and it doesn't seem like there's much effort in making the show. The actors are fine, just needs better production and writing.

I rarely give new sitcoms a chance because most of them are so awful (NBC I'm talking to you) but I thought I would give Dr. Ken a chance since it comes on after Last Man Standing which I do like. The pilot was awful but I watched a few more episodes because sometimes a show improves after a few episodes. This one didn't. Ken Jeong portrays his character, who is a doctor, as some kind of college kid complete with the immaturity and unfunny comments. Why some people find him hilarious is beyond me.As in most sitcoms these days, the wife wears the pants in the family and just doesn't seem believable as his wife. The daughter is okay, the son gives me the creeps.The staff at the hospital aren't bad except for the young, female doctor with the long brown hair who apparently is a total screw up in her personal life.There is nothing remarkable about this sitcom. The writing is awful and the acting is sub-par. It reminds me of Cristela which was in the same time slot last year and was about a Hispanic family instead of an Asian one. Thankfully it was canceled after one season. I have a feeling this show will be canceled also. It appears for every new sitcom that is aired, only one or two a season are worth renewing. This isn't one of them.
