Plantiana Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Inclubabu Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

2hotFeature one of my absolute favorites!

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

AmsterdamReprobate I watched the pilot and noticed more than a few similarities between 3 lbs and House, M.D.. Tucci's character is brilliant but socially inept out of choice, similar to Laurie's character House, but without the acerbic wit that Laurie brings to House. Meanwhile, Tucci's 'straight guy', the emphatic doctor Seger, is not developed into a more interesting character, like the fallible 'straight guys' Cuddy and Wilson. Indira Varma's character Adrienne Holland is too similar to Jennifer Morrison's doctor Cameron to be a co-incidence.Someone at CBS obviously noticed the success of House, M.D. and told his staff to get him (her) a similar show, hoping that mimicry would prove successful. However, copying a show like House demands the same high level balance of wit and suspense and Tucci and company are just not up to the challenge.I didn't know the show was canceled until I read the comments on IMDb, but it doesn't come as a surprise to me.

spekelatius 3lbs is obviously just a self indulgent programme for Stanley Tucci to be a producer/moody deep doctor. Unlike House he has absolutely no personality and unlike Grey's Anatomy the brain surgery cases are't even interesting. This programme is supposed to be set in a leading centre for Neurlogical cases - yet there's nothing interesting or exciting going on! Not even the so called pathetic 'feud' between him and a rival adds anything to the show and neither do those hallucinations. In the pilot there was a brief glimpse into the leads's social life as a father - snooze! boring and pointless.This show is pants,there's a glut of medical dramas around at the moment and this does nothing to make it stand out as special.

ShastaJMH0104 I loved 3 lbs. It was so interesting and full of entertainment. It was becoming one of my favorites. I am really disappointed that they are canceling the show! I admit at first I was a little upset because it reminds me so much of House but it started to grow on me! I love 3 lbs and I think if the network would of gave it more time on the air it would have been extremely successful! I learned a lot about the brain in the 3 episodes that I saw. And each week I was looking forward to the next show. I wish there were more shows out there like House and 3 lbs that you can actually learn something from. There are so few. So as it stands now House is still number one in my book but 3 lbs could have been tied with my number one!!!

Pedro Marques This TV show had me hooked from the series premiere. Its smart writing and excellent acting speaks to both neuroscience and philosophy.It was a pleasure watching the only three episodes aired because each time I would walk away at the end and think of the philosophical issues brought up as well as remember the medical terms used. I'm once again hooked on psychology and I have 3Lbs to thank. Stanley Tucci shines in his portrayal of Dr. Hanson. The writers cleverly gauged the audience's reception to an exaggerated arrogance of the character and toned it down some notches in the ensuing episodes to reflect a little bit of humanity while still preserving his "cold science" attitude. I already miss the prospect of seeing this character grow and develop throughout a season.Mark Feuerstein's Dr. Jonathan Singer is an immediately likable character who fits the part to a tee. He's a good counter balance to Dr.Hanson which keeps their professional chemistry interesting. Indira Varma as Dr. Adrianne Holland is exquisite. This Swedish-Indian beauty has finally been given the chance to shine and she delivered. Her British charm speckled with Indian beauty creates the perfect sexual ambiance that I suspect would eventually capture Dr. Singer if the series were allowed to continue. 3lbs was cancelled due to poor ratings, however many successful series begin slowly. Hopefully this is only a hiatus and 3lbs is allowed to make a return and given a chance to build an audience.The writing, storyline, plot and acting is brilliant and has the potential to be a hit series. I'm crossing my fingers that it is either recognized by CBS as such or picked up by another media outlet in the very near future.
