I love it. Why are they canceling it? The characters are strong and unique. The story lines are both inside and outside the box or the norm. This is not a dry uninteresting hospital show. There are characters you like and those who you do not. But even the bad or cold characters show some patient caring, not like Dr. House on House. There is even some time spent giving the characters a social life. This however does not take away from the theme of the show, brain study and surgery. The pace of the show is fast and interesting. Along with being entertained by the show, I have also learned interesting facts about brain.

I totally agree with Annie from N.Mexico...what is wrong at CBS, when they don't give a show of this caliber a chance???? I will say that an earlier time slot, say 9:00pm would be a better choice, as many people I've spoken to are in my age group (50+). This is a huge audience for intelligent writing with heart. I personally know someone in my own family who related to the "Heart Stopping" episode and he appreciated the exploration of that subject. This is a new field being explored in a medical show...not to mention Stanley Tucci's beautiful and multi-layered performance, that alone worth watching, along with newer talent. Let's let CBS know that they made a mistake!!!!

I thought the pilot was beautifully done. The story of the young violinist's struggle to get her dexterity back was extremely touching and the episode was lavishly filmed. Stanley Tucci's character was well fleshed out and full of contradictions. I was eager to watch as Tucci and Feuerstein learned from each other and grew as characters. I will admit that subsequent episodes failed to pack the punch that the pilot did but I felt the show held a lot of promise. It really is a shame they are canceling it. The show was entertaining and educational. Simply put: fascinating. It's truly a shame they're canceling it in light of some of the other less interesting medical dramas that exist out there.

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.

After watching the 4th episode today, I said to myself: why can't I like this show? It has likable and charismatic characters. It has a powerful and refreshing approach to it, by showing the effects of brain deceases on human lives. The dialogs are well-written, witty and filled with hilarious one-liners. But despite all my praise, I constantly had the feeling that something was missing and I can't really put my finger on what it might be. Maybe Dr Hanson can find the answer somewhere in my neurological system?! I'm at a serious loss here.

Maybe it has something to do with the format being too crystal clear. We have Dr Hanson, the cynical surgeon representing the ratio, and Dr Seger, the empathic surgeon representing the feeling. In every episode their method of approaching patients is significantly different, but in the end they must admit that they both are right in their thinking. By YOUR powers combined! No real surprises anywhere. The other characters are also too crisp to really ignite any real fondness for them. Charming, yes, but at the same time very dull and predictable. It'd be a much more powerful show if the writers either chose to make its main characters morally less transparent ( like in Nip/Tuck ) or by choosing for a more over-the-top style (like in Grey's anatomy ). I didn't need Dr Hanson after all...and neither did CBS apparently.
