Around the Web
Dealing with a group of lawyers/doctors who defend medicos against litigation, it shows promise, thanks to some excellent casting. Armstrong and Bourne are standouts as MDA's main defenders, as is Donovan as their key protagonist. Donovan will surprise many with how good he is, and the show may prove a watershed in his career.
From Sunday Herald Sun MDA is one of those rare television products which has increased in quality and appeal as it has progressed.
Mike O'Connor on The Courier Mail MDA also exposes a big grey area where things are hardly ever clear-cut, right or wrong. Enter a solid cast of characters who must negotiate moral minefields and complicated personal lives and you have riveting television.
Liz Grant on The West Australian Donovan's Richard certainly makes you forget Scott Robinson ever existed and Bourne's Happy is often such a set of contradictions that it makes him interesting to watch.
Kerrie Murphy on The Australian As Savage, Donovan talks low and slow. He projects quiet power and unexpected intensity. But the actor has had to work hard in order to feel that he's on top of all the technical terminology that has to roll easily from his character's lips.
