FX/Hulu continues their winning television streak with The Patient, a true two-hander starring Steve Carell and Domhnall Gleeson. If you've seen any marketing of the show, you'll know the high-concept premise. A serial killer abducts a therapist to try and get himself cured. Wild high-concept idea for a TV series, and through two episodes, they're pulling it off. A sneaky half-hour television drama (a rarity) that leaves you wanting more at the end of each episode (while avoiding dragging, since it's mostly Steve and Domhnall talking in a room). Let me know what you think of The Patient by writing to dan@voyagemedia.com or hitting me up on Twitter (@BenamorDan), Instagram (watch_this_tonight) or Facebook (Watch This Tonight). And keep an eye out for Voyage Media's upcoming podcast THE HITLER FILE (starring Peter Stormare and Denis O'Hare), which is surprisingly similar to this show, albeit with Hitler, coming soon.
