Whoever does the research on that program should stop getting their facts from Facebook.

As a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. The fact that they added someone who's on a mission, but not wearing a suit or tag. I love this show but this episode is all wrong.

It's been so refreshing to see "Art imitating LIFE" with this TV show and many others. It would be unrealistic to not draw attention to these critically important socio-cultural, economic, & racial justice issues that plague our society! Acting & shows that address KNOWN health disparities, isn't being "WOKE" or "left leaning!" Health disparities affect everyone, regardless of POLITICS! Keep it up, writers. People are really telling on themselves with all of these low ratings & negative comments!
It's to bad that the writers of this "Medical" drama series are ignorant in their facts. I have seen many times how they have gotten medical terms wrong, but to slaughter how a religious organization works and their beliefs shows thier lack of information, knowledge, and prejudice. Their trying to tout tolerance, but disregard religious tolerance. It's to bad, I loved the first 2 seasons of this series. Time to find new medical drams to watch.

You guys are pathetic. The show is talking about important issues that don't concern straight, white people only. If that bothers you, which it seems to be bothering a lot of you, then stop watching. Go find a show that aligns with your terrible views. You won't be missed. And you don't have to tell us you're leaving, just go.

This was my favorite show...until this episode.
It was comical how wrong the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was portrayed. I promise you there was not one accurate point. We don't wear cross necklaces. The men who supervise missions are called "President" not "Elder." The lingo and affect shown and things spoken of are not correct at all. Yes - there is controversy and turmoil surrounding LGBTQ issues, but this episode didn't even portray that turmoil in an accurate manner. In a time when it is so easy to research and get to know a religion and its people I am flabbergasted at how wrong this show got it. The credibility of this show just took a deeeeeeeep dive in my opinion. Could you not have done any better? Shaking my head...

This used to be one of my favorite shows but I will not be watching it again. Get a grip on what you're doing. Every week it gets worse and worse with your stupid preaching to the audiences of all kinds of miss information. I'm really tired of it.
So much for educated writing and wokeness and leftism, etc.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is very open about their teachings and practices and beliefs, yet it appears no one did any research except for probably watching South Park or going to other Churches and their leaders on what they think the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints actually teach!
There's a Temple in Manhattan and the Missionaries are everywhere in the city! I served my Mission there, so I know this for a fact!
NBC and the shows writers and directors and producers should issue a formal apology for how they portrayed the Religion! This was wrong on so many levels!!!

As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints I really take issue with this. It's one thing if you even try to get stuff marginally correct, but when you just blatantly make stuff up it's painful to watch.
As another person pointed out all the "fixes" to inaccuracies, I'd go a step further and say that other than calling the church by its full name instead of "Mormons" there wasn't anything correct in regards to that plot line.

I love medical dramas. And I've been pretty happy so far with New Amsterdam. But this episode alone has made me so angry! The way the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was portrayed was wrong in so many ways. I kept having to stop and rewind, because I was flabbergasted at what I was seeing. If you want to include a religion, make sure you cover all your bases and portray it correctly. The Book of Mormon musical wasn't the correct material to base the story off of. Just saying. And now I don't know when I'll want to watch another episode.

Been a huge fan of this show since day 1. But as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints I refuse to watch a show that thinks it's ok to make up by facts and to smear the church on tv. They are trying to preach tolerance but refuse to be tolerant of religious views. Writers need to get their facts straight before you talk blatant lies on tv. So frustrating.

I enjoy your show and I love the direction this season went with addressing hard hitting issues. I was disappointed and frustrated writing concerning the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saint storyline. The writers got just about everything wrong with that. For a team who seems to be trying to put hard real issues out there for people to think about, spreading misinformation about this faith seems contradictory and almost like an intentional attack. I hope it was just lazy writing and not purposeful. That was really hard to stomach and almost makes me not want to watch the show anymore.

I wish Iggy's harassing phone calls that border on abusive demands were the worst part of this episode. There's no way a mental health professional would make phone calls like that. The Mormon leader piece was shallow - felt forced with no character development. And if someone, like the LDS missionary, doesn't wasn't their sexuality to be their defining identity how dare someone, like Bloom, think she gets to deny a person's self-understanding and self-determination. This came across as a stereotypical, white, progressive showing up to override the personal, religious, and sexual choices of a person of color.
