Honestly I would’ve been fine with anyone else dying except for DR. NEIL MELANDEZ. He held the whole plot together more than anyone else in the entire story. From the 1st episode I’m so used to listening to ppl say his name a 100 times
I only want Claire and Melendez to live so they can have their happily ever after…honestly though I’m happy with the heartwarming last moment with Melendez in this scene..
I will never forgive the writers for building their romance up only to kill melendez off like that. it’s so unnecessary and Claire deserved some happiness
His death was completely unnecessary and complete bullshit I think keeping Lea just so they can see her with Shaun in my opinion was completely an utter bullshit! Honestly I could care less about their relationship I would much rather have Dr. Melendez. I love Shaun and everything but I would much rather have Dr. Melendez then have Lea be with Shaun no offense. And no offense to David Shore & Daniel Dae Kim I think their amazing producers but killing Dr. Melendez off was the stupidest thing they ever did.
I know right! If this was a show like Vampire diaries, I could say that he will definitely come back, but at this point, they really did kill him, and it's hard to accept. Their ratings have also gone down significantly, pretty sure it has to do with this cut.
@@katie2967 agreed. I love Shaun and Lea but Melendez and Claire's is the perfect love story ❤️ It was meant to be. Maybe they killed off Melendez to make it more accurate, like there isn't as much romance that happen in a hospital between colleagues. Like they'd shown in Grey's Anatomy, attendings falling in love with residents 😕 But they could have transferred Melendez or Claire. Idk. Whatever happened is really sad :(
I will never get over the fact that they killed off melendez just for pure shock value... it did nothing but take away from the story... and the only person that it affected was claire..
@@marionlapierre6088 thought it was just me. The show to me right now is completely unwatchable.... I can't stand the fact that they killed a main character for "shock value".. Like what??.. For absolutely no reason. Plus Melendez was one of my favorite characters in the show...
@@positivevybes247 He was one of my favorites too! And honestly Nick was the reason I even started watching The Good Doctor in the first place. I know everybody is like it's just a show it's time to get over it well I'm not over it yet and I don't think I will be for quite a while. And I think them killing Dr. Melendez off was completely unnecessary and complete bullshit!
And Claire has only experienced trauma all her life. Melandez had his heart broken twice and both of them were finally perfectly ready just like us audience and they decide to just snatch away Melandire
Can you let Claire be happy for once? She lost her best friend, her mom and the one person she could share her grief with is now gone too. All of this in 2 years? Killing Dr. Melendez just for shock value in such a vague manner was totally unnecessary and so disrespectful to both character and the actor who plays it.
Closure, are you kidding??? Guy dies right after finally telling her he loves her and we’re talking about closure with a ghost, hallucination or whatever. Claire and Melendez were perfect for each other and they deserved to be happy, and so did we after watching the relationship been teased for three years.. I understand wanting the show to be realistic and whatever, but a character loosing her mother and the man she loves in the same year seems a bit over dramatic
It wasn't even closure I think having Neil come back as a ghost/hallucination for Claire is cruel, I mean how much more do they need to put poor Clare through. I understand she needs to grieve or whatever but come on having her hallucinate about Neil is a bit extreme. I understand wanting the show to be realistic but having Nick come back as a ghost/hallucination seems a bit overly dramatic in my opinion. I ❤️ Neil to death and I'm happy as can be to see him again but they could have found other ways to bring him back into the show other than having Claire hallucinate. Having him come back in flashbacks is one thing but having Claire hallucinate about him being there is another. And I still feel like the only reason they even brought Nick back honestly is because so many fans were pissed off last year about them killing his character off that they decided to bring him back as a ghost/hallucination to keep their ratings going and at the same time still keep their viewers happy! Because you know damn well that half the viewers that are tuning in this season are only tuning in so they can see if Dr. Melendez is going to make an appearance this season because do you honestly think they give two shits about Lea and Shaun's relationship? NO. They want to see Dr. Melendez.
@@katie2967 but they are unable to understand that we don't want this ghost shit, we want him to be alive and I really hope rating will continue to drop even more
@@sole449 well maybe the ratings dropping will make them realize that killing Dr. Melendez off was a HUGE mistake and that they need to bring Nicholas back.
@@sole449 Well of course alive! They just can't bring Dr. Melendez back which sucks they would have to bring him in as another character. I mean for all we know Dr. Melendez does have a twin brother I mean they never really went into his family. all we really know about Dr. Melendez is that he was taking care of his sister that was disabled.
This whole situation... kinda turns me off. I just don’t feel like the whole Melendez dying plot was necessary and I understand there are people like, “gEt oVeR iT”, but I really like this show. I’m allowed to be upset if I feel as if a stupid decision was made, and killing Melendez? That was a really dumb decision. Melendez and Claire had a story worth expanding, hell Melendez without Claire had an interesting story. We only saw his sister once and we don’t really know much about his parents. I understand the writers want this to be realistic and it is. Death is very prominent in this show- I mean, we got it with Claire’s mom and Shaun’s dad. The Good Doctor is still too new for those main character deaths, in my opinion. It’s not a show about the supernatural, or gang violence, or zombies, etc. This season just feels really weird (and I’m not talking about the Covid stuff). Melendez didn’t get a proper goodbye and I know covid has affected a lot, but his death feels so meaningless
Hey I know exactly how you feel I'm still very upset and pissed off to my core that they chose to kill Dr. Melendez off and people are like get over it, it's just a show yes I understand that but I'm like you I'm allowed to be upset. And I thought picking Lea over Dr. Melendez was bullshit to begin with still pisses me off especially since she wasn't even a main character. I mean for god sakes she was MIA half the time on the show! and I think it's bullshit that the only reason they even picked Lea over Dr. Melendez was because they wanted to see her with Shaun which let's be honest I think it was a bullshit reason to begin with. I mean I'm extremely happy to see Dr. Melendez, I mean he was the only exciting part of the first two episodes for me but it wasn't the same as actually having him there. And honestly I know this sounds stupid but watching these episodes makes me want to cry because I miss Dr. Melendez. And I think it's bullshit that they're having Nick appear as a ghost when they could have just kept him to begin with. And FYI before someone corrects me Nick stated in several interviews that it wasn't his choice to leave and David Shore also stated that his leaving was for creative decisions.
@@RoyalMasterpiece I completely agree with you! I feel like the only reason honestly they're even bringing Dr. Melendez back in my personal opinion is because so many fans last year was so pissed off that they had killed his character off so they're bringing him back as a ghost/hallucination for Claire! so they could keep their ratings going and at the same time keep the viewers happy because excuse my french knew they fucked up by killing Dr. Melendez off. Cuz you know damn well that the only reason half the viewers are even tuning into this season is to see if Dr. Melendez is going to make an appearance and David Shore knows this & is using it.
It kind of feels like he was brought back to appease fans of this storyline. For me, it just reinforces how stupid they were to have gotten rid of him in the first place.
I just binged the show I'm stopping at season 3. It's over for me. Maybe they thought they were grey's anatom, killing off a main character like that. Absolutely stupid move
Oh my freaking god, the way he looks and smiles at her, knowing what they felt, makes me melt as many times as i watch it, also incredibly sad. They deserved so much better i hate the writers for doing this to me
But can't forget Dr Melendez for a moment , whenever Good Doctor is mentioned...Miss him so so much. A character dearly missing...not happened many times..Salute to Nicholas for putting life in that beautiful inspiring character...Thank you @Nicholas Gonzalez
I hope they fired the guy who forwarded the idea of killing Melendez for making the worst decision ever and losing so many viewers single handedly 😒✌🏻️👏
If they really wanted the character to leave, The writers could have shown Melendez getting injured, and lose the stability in his hands, but NOOOO, let's kill him off by septic shock.
I have stopped watching this show post Melendez death. This popped in my YT recommendation, just clicked to see Melendez. I can't watch it anymore, especially, with them portraying Covid-19 stuffs, I simply can't watch it after losing my grandma 2 months ago. I can't go through those emotions again. Killing Melendez is the stupidest plot development tool I have seen in a while. It just killed the series for me. And now this Claire talking to ghost or hallucination thing to give her a "closure"? Lol that's another stupid plot point. Claire deserves better, losing her mom and then Melendez (after confessing about her feelings). Writers went pretty crazy to make it "realistic".
The story would have been very good if Melendez died treating covid and getting caught and died a hero fighting an unexpected and un known virus... His death would have had meaning! Unlike the original plot where they killed him just to keep story interesting!
@@ocbusfan yea... And they again brought him as a ghost to claire....! That's just sad! U know they shouldn't have done that... they are dishonoring charecter!
The whole story with Dr. Melendez being killed off was bullshit! And I'm just about ready to give up on The Good Doctor I am not impressed with this season at all. I'm probably just going to buy the first three seasons of the good doctor that actually have Dr. Melendez in it. I already have the first season I just need to buy the second and third.
You know, I was glad to see Melendez back and all, but this only infuriated me even more. Neil and Claire deserved so much better. The only reason the writers did this whole thing with ghost!!Melendez was to cover their asses after seeing our anger about their terrible blunder killing him off. Plus his goodbye was pretty anticlimactic IMO. I tell ya, The Good Doctor is really on a downward spiral and killing off Melendez got the ball rolling.
I love so much this quotation : "This room is filled with stories that were cut short ; like ours. But you, you have an amazing story ahead and I can't wait to see it". I love it, but it makes me cry.
I think season 4 really should be the last season, there's no point carrying this thing any forward. To me Murphy was not the only character whose storyline required attention and detail. Claire and Melendez had a very different relationship from other things i have seen on tv. Both characters individually too were extremely layered. Melendez wasn't the usual cynical, reckless, playboy, detached doctor and Claire wasn't the usual female resident who was always a damsel in distress and required her attending's validation. Both extremely intelligent and dignified characters, and I would have really looked forward to seeing one of the very few uncomplicated, non toxic, enriching tv romances. it was a foolish decision to kill him off like this.
Words can't describe how disappointed I am with TGD. Killing Neil was the biggest mistake ever, I just can't bring myself to watch the new season. After 3 years of character development, 3 years of deepening his relationship with Claire, he dies from a curable disease, with no one - except Claire around him, while the whole medical staff was outside Petringa's room when she was dying. And now, when he's dead, no one, no one mentions him, like he never existed, which makes me even angrier. There are so many superfluous, annoying and boring characters that producers could have got rid of, but they had to kill one of the most beloved characters, who was about to have an amazing story with Claire, but their story was "cut short". My heart broke once again, when I heard these lines. With Melendaire, season 4 could have been the best of all. Instead of this, writers want Shea to be at the centre of attention, but honestly, I'm fed up with their storyline, it's so meaningless, the only thing Shaun cares about is sex, as he did in season 3. Claire and Neil didn't even share a hug or a kiss, but their feelings and emotions were so real, their love was so pure, that's what makes them unique. I'm definitely done with the show and I'm not the only one, there are plenty of people who decided not to watch it anymore. I'm sure Shore knows that, so he's trying to keep the audience by bringing Neil back as a ghost... but neither Nick nor Neil deserves that.
@@amywalker7515 or they can have Nick come in and play a different character I mean they did that with Shaun's brother! I mean it will be weird seeing Nick play another character besides Dr. Melendez but at least he would be back on the show. I mean I think taking him off the show in the first place was bullshit.
@@katie2967 as you can see from dr melendez(nick gonzalez) official instagram account,he wrote a super long paragraph saying goodbye😭I believe he won't be returning anymore,and that breaks me into pieces
There's no closure to what you've done... All of this was unecessary... Except making Claire suffer and grieve once again, except telling your viewers she can't be happy. I'm done with this show as much as I love Antonia Thomas. I can't stand seeing her crying all the time when she has so much potential. And I really don't care about Glassman and Debbie or Lea and Shaun who are only arguing. Melendez has not even had a decent ending. All seemed rushed and unnecessary. You destroy your show in only one episode (320). Congratulations.... Melendez and Claire were my little idiotic happiness on Monday. I will always remember them and imagine that they finally have the happy ending they deserved. Goodbye.
The saddest part of this is not that Claire and Melendez’s story were cut short but that they never had anything to begin with in the first place rather than just their feelings for each other which they didn’t acknowledge until Melendez dies
Anyone else here that stop watching the show after this scene? 🙋 I tried to watch the first 2 episodes of the new season, i really give it a chance, but I just couldn't go on with it. The show was just... I don't know... like something was missing, nothing there made sense anymore, not for me anyway. And, after some weeks of thinking, I just realised, the missing piece, the one that made this show great in the first sesons, was this guy, the great and only Neil Melendez, the only scenes bearable to watch from season 4, were the ones in which he showed up. Miss you forever, Dr. Melendez! 😢😢
@@sole449 I'm happy to hear that, I hope they will continue to lose many more viewers. Because they deserve just that after the move they made for pure "shock value" this is the worth of that creative idea of killing the character that gave so much value to this show.
I literally can't watch the show without Melendez it's like he's supposed to be there helping and giving encouraging words while being blunt at the same time. The energy is off without him
Feels weird watching The Good Doctor without him. The energy is off without Dr. Melendez! I'm trying my hardest to get into this season but I just can't. And I just can't stand Lea I used to be able to tolerate her but ever since she did that to Shaun & ever since the producers picked her over Dr. Melendez I really can't stand her.
@@katie2967 happy to hear that someone feels same like me! Out from respect to the show, I forced myself to watch 7 episodes, but couldn't stand it. It did not get better
@@with-BANDURA Not to add that the story lines are just getting ridiculous like having Nicholas come back as a hallucination for Claire was just complete bullshit! I mean seriously taking the love of her life and bringing him back as a hallucination was just complete and utter bullshit, I was sitting here thinking really hasn't Claire suffered enough first she loses her mother and then she loses Neil how much more are you going to put Claire through? And then they come up with this ridiculous storyline where Shaun starts having inappropriate feelings for another woman while he's with Lea it's like seriously you go through all this trouble to make those two a couple just to turn around and "Almost" have Shaun cheat on her didn't make any sense to me not to add that they have Dr. Lim get in this motorcycle accident and she doesn't have one broken bone not one she just walks into the ER with just a couple scratches and I'm thinking seriously? I just thought that was completely unrealistic because she would have had way more injuries than that.
@@katie2967 oh yeah the ghost thing was ridiculous! I mean it is medical show, she having hallucinations means she has some kind of tumor (as Dr. HOUSE would say) and then those lines were complete shit. Yeah, storylines are super not natural, they all develop so fast, and they almost cut all the lines which they made through the seasons and start them over. I mean Park should have left or his family should join him here, they made it clear that he wants to have family back. Then Reznik story which became quite interesting to the end of season 3 is forgotten. And Shaun and Lea, I have no words about it, I fast-forward through it. It is super annoying. This relationship turned Shaun back in his development. Now he is sex obsessed teneger. It is sad, that good show became this. Double sad, because I didn't watch anything in very long time what would be so enjoyable. I gave 4th season a chance, but after I watched this week episode, I gave up. The writers had their time to prove worth of that "creative idea"...
@@with-BANDURA Not to mention that another thing that pisses me off about the show is the fact that they bring in Andrews niece and she gets way more backstory than Neil does and she's not even in the show four episodes! And Melendez was in the show three years and the only thing we find out about his life is he had a sister that was disabled that he took care of and before we can find out anymore about his life they kill his character off and that pissed me off. Another thing that is really irritating me this season and maybe I'm overreacting a little bit but nobody and I mean nobody except for Dr. Lim and Claire has even addressed it or showed any sort of emotion that Neil has passed away or even addressed it not even Shaun has even acted like he cares that Neil's passed away. The only two people that has even visited Neil's grave is Audrey and Claire. You would think at least Dr. Glassman considering how long he's known Dr. Melendez would at least show some sort of emotion or even visited his grave, I mean has anyone even told Jessica that Neil passed away? I mean I wonder.
The way he died was stupd, there was no closure and they left it hanging like they wern't sure what to do... ugh, they had a more interesting story than shaun and lea
Honestly there was no closure I thought the ending was extremely inappropriate and unnecessary no disrespect to David Shore or Daniel Dae Kim cuz I think they're both brilliant producers but they didn't even have the decency to give Neil a proper death! And that pissed me off. I love Neil and everything but they didn't need to bring him back as a hallucination I thought that was extremely inappropriate. Because all they're doing is torturing poor Claire. Bringing him back in flashbacks is one thing but bringing him back as a hallucination in my personal opinion was completely disrespectful and inappropriate. I would have even been happy if they would have brought Nick back as another character on the show just as long as we got to see Nick again. I just thought the whole hallucination thing was complete bullshit I'm sorry even though I was happy to see Dr. Melendez again I still thought it was bullshit! Because the whole time I'm watching the episodes I just wanted to cry and wanted Dr. Melendez back plus it just pisses me off that they picked Lea over him.
@@katie2967 Yes them constantly hurting Claire is ridiculous, can she please be happy without having her heart stomped on!!! I prefer ANYONE over Lea, I can't stand her 👎so can imagine how pissed off I was when they saved her but killed Neil!!! Yes the hallucination hurt because he kept talking about him and Claire not having the chance to be together, it's like the writers wanted to rub salt on the wound! 💔 I would've definitely preferred seeing flashbacks, it would've been nice seeing a peek into the time they spent together when they weren't working💘
@@asiyah7714 Exactly! Not only that but last night's episode pissed me off too because they could have at least had Neil tell Claire before he moved on that he loved her.
One reason that keeps me watching Good doctor is Dr Melendez and the whole romance building up with Claire, after season 3 I dont feel like watching it again.
I am livid !! I will never get over how dirty the writers did Claire in one season with her mothers death then the man who she let help her heal like why can't black women just be fucking happy ? Like fuck the writers, they had no good reason to kill Melendez off, we deserved a love story, esp being that it was such a slow burn.. not whatever tf this is.
i have never wanted to fight a plot this much 😭why building up this relationship (which was the most beautiful one out of every couple this show has)at 1st place if he was going to die at the end before they even started 😭
Totally unnecessary... melendez didn't have to die... I hope writers are reading the comments here... no one absolutely no one is ok with this.... it just doesn't make sense
his death was so unnecessary... what's the point of the whole building up, the slow burn, and then kill him off like that?! this scene is beyond painful. that "I can't wait to see it" breaks my heart more than I can express. he will aways be with her, but we won't see it. heartbroken. we miss u Neil 🥺
I cried rivers after Melendez died. I loved someone who brought out the best in me. I realized very late and was afraid to let that person know in fear of rejection cz I felt that person had platonic feelings for me. Now I don't know whether I'd be able to find love again.
My motivation to watch this series was Melendez And his association with Claire was the most interesting Killing him sucks Whether you invent some science fiction or anything just bring him back preeety pleaassssseeeee😥😥😥
Thats so unfair,just when Claire had finally begun to find happiness in the form of romance and friendship with Melendez after bearing so much since her childhood,they killed the character which was totally unnecessary!
It's not closure in my opinion they're just dishonoring his memory and his character they couldn't even have the decency to give him a proper death not only that they're torturing poor Claire don't get me wrong I love Neil to death but how much more can they put poor Claire through first they kill her mother off and then they have her and Neil fall in love and then they kill him off! It's like seriously and then they have her hallucinate that Neil's there it's like how much more torture do you want to put Claire through. Not only that don't get me wrong I think David Shore & Daniel Dae Kim are brilliant producers but lately they are pissing me off with The Good Doctor I love the show don't get me wrong and there are incredible actors on the show and I think Freddie Highmore is an incredible actor but why did they have to kill Dr. Melendez off! Of all the characters to kill off why would you pick him to kill off. And no offense but of all the characters to keep why would you choose a character that was MIA half the time and wasn't even on the show, I understand that they wanted to see how Lea and Shaun's relationship played out but why couldn't they do that and have kept Nick on the show? Why did they have to kill off Neil in order to see how Lea and Shaun's relationship worked out? Why did it cost losing Dr. Melendez? I don't get it and it's very confusing to me. And FYI in case someone wants to correct me on here Nick didn't leave because he had another project he stated in several interviews that it wasn't his choice to leave & David Shore also stated in several interviews that his leaving was for creative decisions. So yes it bothers me how they're doing the show right now and I'm happy and everything and was excited as hell to see Dr. Melendez this season but at the same time I wanted to cry because it's so sad to see Dr. Melendez on the show and know that he's not coming back & knowing that he's never going to be with Claire. Because no offense I thought how they did last season was complete bullshit because what was the point in putting fans through all of that last season and doing all of that ring around the rosie bullshit with Claire and Neil making fans think they were going to put them together when the plan the whole time was just to kill him off why not just keep them as friends if they never had any intention in making them a couple I don't get it. Cuz that right there just pissed me off to my core. Even last night's episode pissed me off because they could have at least had Neil before he disappeared had him tell Claire he loved her. I know the show isn't just based on Nick but the way they're doing it the last two seasons have pissed me off! I'm going to keep watching the fourth season to see if it gets any better but I hope this season Neil doesn't keep appearing as a ghost! Mainly for Claire's sake. But they could always bring Nick back as another character on the show! I mean they did that with Shaun's brother. It would be weird seeing him as not Dr. Melendez but they could do that. I'm just extremely upset how they did everything on the show I'm happy to see Dr. Melendez but at the same time I just want to cry. And I think how they killed him off was extremely tacky and very unnecessary.

Every time i see this scene.. Tear rolls down my eyes.. Characters are what we can relate to.. Melendez was one.. He didn't got his love.. His story could have been better..
Claire has been through so much, losing her mom and losing her love interest. Still, there are so many things (or mysteries) about life and death that we can't understand, and so many things we can't control. I hope all the doctors know that.
The good doctor will never be the same without Melendez’s smile 😭
Honestly I would’ve been fine with anyone else dying except for DR. NEIL MELANDEZ. He held the whole plot together more than anyone else in the entire story. From the 1st episode I’m so used to listening to ppl say his name a 100 times
I only want Claire and Melendez to live so they can have their happily ever after…honestly though I’m happy with the heartwarming last moment with Melendez in this scene..
The love between these two felt so real I was so broken
I just watched the last episode of season 3 today. I really like the part everytime they say "page Melendez" like over and over again til now😢😢
I will never forgive the writers for building their romance up only to kill melendez off like that. it’s so unnecessary and Claire deserved some happiness
Completely agree!
I AGREEE
I stopped watching because of it.
@@RoyalMasterpiece me too
They should bring Dr.kalu back
No one asked for this closure. We wanted Melendez alive, not a figment of Claire’s imagination.
His death was completely unnecessary and complete bullshit I think keeping Lea just so they can see her with Shaun in my opinion was completely an utter bullshit! Honestly I could care less about their relationship I would much rather have Dr. Melendez. I love Shaun and everything but I would much rather have Dr. Melendez then have Lea be with Shaun no offense. And no offense to David Shore & Daniel Dae Kim I think their amazing producers but killing Dr. Melendez off was the stupidest thing they ever did.
I know right! If this was a show like Vampire diaries, I could say that he will definitely come back, but at this point, they really did kill him, and it's hard to accept. Their ratings have also gone down significantly, pretty sure it has to do with this cut.
I hear you Loud and clear Sis! This is some bullsh*t!

As sad as it is, that’s probably the point. Some things, in not everything, will change.
I just watched season 3 and I am not okay 😭😭😭how did you guys overcome?
Exactly
Right!!!!!!!!
I will never get over the fact that they killed off melendez just for pure shock value... it did nothing but take away from the story... and the only person that it affected was claire..
That is why I have deciced to stop watching the show.

@@marionlapierre6088 thought it was just me. The show to me right now is completely unwatchable.... I can't stand the fact that they killed a main character for "shock value".. Like what??.. For absolutely no reason. Plus Melendez was one of my favorite characters in the show...
@@positivevybes247 He was one of my favorites too! And honestly Nick was the reason I even started watching The Good Doctor in the first place. I know everybody is like it's just a show it's time to get over it well I'm not over it yet and I don't think I will be for quite a while.
And I think them killing Dr. Melendez off was completely unnecessary and complete bullshit!
And Claire has only experienced trauma all her life. Melandez had his heart broken twice and both of them were finally perfectly ready just like us audience and they decide to just snatch away Melandire
Can you let Claire be happy for once? She lost her best friend, her mom and the one person she could share her grief with is now gone too. All of this in 2 years? Killing Dr. Melendez just for shock value in such a vague manner was totally unnecessary and so disrespectful to both character and the actor who plays it.
I can't watch this show without seeing Melendez being the ultimate boss
Closure, are you kidding??? Guy dies right after finally telling her he loves her and we’re talking about closure with a ghost, hallucination or whatever.
Claire and Melendez were perfect for each other and they deserved to be happy, and so did we after watching the relationship been teased for three years..
I understand wanting the show to be realistic and whatever, but a character loosing her mother and the man she loves in the same year seems a bit over dramatic
It wasn't even closure I think having Neil come back as a ghost/hallucination for Claire is cruel, I mean how much more do they need to put poor Clare through. I understand she needs to grieve or whatever but come on having her hallucinate about Neil is a bit extreme.
I understand wanting the show to be realistic but having Nick come back as a ghost/hallucination seems a bit overly dramatic in my opinion. I ❤️ Neil to death and I'm happy as can be to see him again but they could have found other ways to bring him back into the show other than having Claire hallucinate. Having him come back in flashbacks is one thing but having Claire hallucinate about him being there is another.
And I still feel like the only reason they even brought Nick back honestly is because so many fans were pissed off last year about them killing his character off that they decided to bring him back as a ghost/hallucination to keep their ratings going and at the same time still keep their viewers happy! Because you know damn well that half the viewers that are tuning in this season are only tuning in so they can see if Dr. Melendez is going to make an appearance this season because do you honestly think they give two shits about Lea and Shaun's relationship? NO. They want to see Dr. Melendez.

@@sole449 Well of course alive! They just can't bring Dr. Melendez back which sucks they would have to bring him in as another character. I mean for all we know Dr. Melendez does have a twin brother I mean they never really went into his family. all we really know about Dr. Melendez is that he was taking care of his sister that was disabled.
This whole situation... kinda turns me off. I just don’t feel like the whole Melendez dying plot was necessary and I understand there are people like, “gEt oVeR iT”, but I really like this show. I’m allowed to be upset if I feel as if a stupid decision was made, and killing Melendez? That was a really dumb decision. Melendez and Claire had a story worth expanding, hell Melendez without Claire had an interesting story. We only saw his sister once and we don’t really know much about his parents. I understand the writers want this to be realistic and it is. Death is very prominent in this show- I mean, we got it with Claire’s mom and Shaun’s dad. The Good Doctor is still too new for those main character deaths, in my opinion. It’s not a show about the supernatural, or gang violence, or zombies, etc. This season just feels really weird (and I’m not talking about the Covid stuff). Melendez didn’t get a proper goodbye and I know covid has affected a lot, but his death feels so meaningless
Isn't all death the same way?
Hey I know exactly how you feel I'm still very upset and pissed off to my core that they chose to kill Dr. Melendez off and people are like get over it, it's just a show yes I understand that but I'm like you I'm allowed to be upset. And I thought picking Lea over Dr. Melendez was bullshit to begin with still pisses me off especially since she wasn't even a main character. I mean for god sakes she was MIA half the time on the show! and I think it's bullshit that the only reason they even picked Lea over Dr. Melendez was because they wanted to see her with Shaun which let's be honest I think it was a bullshit reason to begin with.
I mean I'm extremely happy to see Dr. Melendez, I mean he was the only exciting part of the first two episodes for me but it wasn't the same as actually having him there. And honestly I know this sounds stupid but watching these episodes makes me want to cry because I miss Dr. Melendez.
And I think it's bullshit that they're having Nick appear as a ghost when they could have just kept him to begin with. And FYI before someone corrects me Nick stated in several interviews that it wasn't his choice to leave and David Shore also stated that his leaving was for creative decisions.
Till now iam saying whyyy they killed him off !! What a stupid call
I can't agree more with you
@@patmebg3794 yes, but this is a tv show- tv show deaths are written

Ya I haven’t watched one episode of the new season after what they did. If they somehow bring him back then I’ll watch again.

DR. MELENDEZZZZ!!!! MISS HIM SO MUCH
And this is not making me (or anyone else who misses him as much as me) feel any better 😭😭😭
@@vgg31 no it doesn't make me feel any better I'm happy to see him but at the same time it also makes me want to cry.
Since day one... Melendez & Clair relationship is all I voted for. Wish they could have a beautiful relationship ❤️😭.
i did also, could not wait for it.
Once again I ask, did Melendez really have to die
Nope
They were unnecessary
It is the stupidest death in TV History, IMO.
@@RoyalMasterpiece I completely agree with you! I feel like the only reason honestly they're even bringing Dr. Melendez back in my personal opinion is because so many fans last year was so pissed off that they had killed his character off so they're bringing him back as a ghost/hallucination for Claire! so they could keep their ratings going and at the same time keep the viewers happy because excuse my french knew they fucked up by killing Dr. Melendez off.
Cuz you know damn well that the only reason half the viewers are even
tuning into this season is to see if Dr. Melendez is going to make an appearance and David Shore knows this & is using it.
I think it was for them to make shaun the main surgeon &the good doctor in the serie
Am sitting here just wishing we'd seen something as simple as Melendez hugging Claire. I mean I will never know what that is like!
💔💔...they played us big time..
@@janeojeogwu7123 From the very first encounter, just.......why?
It kind of feels like he was brought back to appease fans of this storyline. For me, it just reinforces how stupid they were to have gotten rid of him in the first place.
Exactly Exactly Exactly!!!
I just binged the show I'm stopping at season 3. It's over for me. Maybe they thought they were grey's anatom, killing off a main character like that.
Absolutely stupid move
Same here binged the entire show and just stopped as soon as he died. It’s nothing for me now. He was such an iconic character 😭
Oh my freaking god, the way he looks and smiles at her, knowing what they felt, makes me melt as many times as i watch it, also incredibly sad. They deserved so much better i hate the writers for doing this to me
But can't forget Dr Melendez for a moment , whenever Good Doctor is mentioned...Miss him so so much. A character dearly missing...not happened many times..Salute to Nicholas for putting life in that beautiful inspiring character...Thank you @Nicholas Gonzalez
I hope they fired the guy who forwarded the idea of killing Melendez for making the worst decision ever and losing so many viewers single handedly 😒✌🏻️👏
If they really wanted the character to leave, The writers could have shown Melendez getting injured, and lose the stability in his hands, but NOOOO, let's kill him off by septic shock.
I have stopped watching this show post Melendez death. This popped in my YT recommendation, just clicked to see Melendez. I can't watch it anymore, especially, with them portraying Covid-19 stuffs, I simply can't watch it after losing my grandma 2 months ago. I can't go through those emotions again.
Killing Melendez is the stupidest plot development tool I have seen in a while. It just killed the series for me. And now this Claire talking to ghost or hallucination thing to give her a "closure"? Lol that's another stupid plot point. Claire deserves better, losing her mom and then Melendez (after confessing about her feelings). Writers went pretty crazy to make it "realistic".
very well said
Me too..I’m done with this show 😞which is quite sad because this show was one of the few that really got me hooked..
Same here

I was haunted, when Dr. Melendez's death. I was crying.
I don’t want to watch it anymore without him
Just bring him and Claire back, make something up like Marvel be doing all the time 😭
The story would have been very good if Melendez died treating covid and getting caught and died a hero
fighting an unexpected and un known virus... His death would have had meaning! Unlike the original plot where they killed him just to keep story interesting!
If only they knew COVID was coming had they decided to kill him off that way instead, but the last season ended before the pandemic hit
@@ocbusfan yea... And they again brought him as a ghost to claire....! That's just sad! U know they shouldn't have done that... they are dishonoring charecter!
well, he shouldn't have died at all
The whole story with Dr. Melendez being killed off was bullshit! And I'm just about ready to give up on The Good Doctor I am not impressed with this season at all. I'm probably just going to buy the first three seasons of the good doctor that actually have Dr. Melendez in it. I already have the first season I just need to buy the second and third.
@@katie2967 very well said!!
You know, I was glad to see Melendez back and all, but this only infuriated me even more. Neil and Claire deserved so much better. The only reason the writers did this whole thing with ghost!!Melendez was to cover their asses after seeing our anger about their terrible blunder killing him off. Plus his goodbye was pretty anticlimactic IMO. I tell ya, The Good Doctor is really on a downward spiral and killing off Melendez got the ball rolling.
His death was unnecessary period.
I feel like this closure is more for us than for Claire💔😂
I love so much this quotation : "This room is filled with stories that were cut short ; like ours. But you, you have an amazing story ahead and I can't wait to see it". I love it, but it makes me cry.
I started crying when he said that
I think season 4 really should be the last season, there's no point carrying this thing any forward. To me Murphy was not the only character whose storyline required attention and detail. Claire and Melendez had a very different relationship from other things i have seen on tv. Both characters individually too were extremely layered. Melendez wasn't the usual cynical, reckless, playboy, detached doctor and Claire wasn't the usual female resident who was always a damsel in distress and required her attending's validation. Both extremely intelligent and dignified characters, and I would have really looked forward to seeing one of the very few uncomplicated, non toxic, enriching tv romances. it was a foolish decision to kill him off like this.
that was so well said!
The most unnecessary death of all time. Doesn't make any sense! Stupid writers.
Words can't describe how disappointed I am with TGD. Killing Neil was the biggest mistake ever, I just can't bring myself to watch the new season. After 3 years of character development, 3 years of deepening his relationship with Claire, he dies from a curable disease, with no one - except Claire around him, while the whole medical staff was outside Petringa's room when she was dying. And now, when he's dead, no one, no one mentions him, like he never existed, which makes me even angrier. There are so many superfluous, annoying and boring characters that producers could have got rid of, but they had to kill one of the most beloved characters, who was about to have an amazing story with Claire, but their story was "cut short". My heart broke once again, when I heard these lines. With Melendaire, season 4 could have been the best of all. Instead of this, writers want Shea to be at the centre of attention, but honestly, I'm fed up with their storyline, it's so meaningless, the only thing Shaun cares about is sex, as he did in season 3. Claire and Neil didn't even share a hug or a kiss, but their feelings and emotions were so real, their love was so pure, that's what makes them unique. I'm definitely done with the show and I'm not the only one, there are plenty of people who decided not to watch it anymore. I'm sure Shore knows that, so he's trying to keep the audience by bringing Neil back as a ghost... but neither Nick nor Neil deserves that.
Every single word of this is taken right out of my mouth! Thank you
@@DutchmanCalypso I'm glad to read that!

Perhaps they can write in an identical twin who appears out of nowhere.
@@amywalker7515 or they can have Nick come in and play a different character I mean they did that with Shaun's brother!

GUYS LISTEN / I THINK THEY JUST KILLED MELENDEZ TO MAKE SHAUN THE MAIN SURGEON IN THE SERIE & TO BE THE GOOD DOCTOR BCZ MELNDEZ WAS THE BEST
They killed Melendez off to save Lea 😒😡. Why start a love story for him to die??? I was so amped up to see where their story would've taken them.
There's no closure to what you've done... All of this was unecessary... Except making Claire suffer and grieve once again, except telling your viewers she can't be happy. I'm done with this show as much as I love Antonia Thomas.
I can't stand seeing her crying all the time when she has so much potential. And I really don't care about Glassman and Debbie or Lea and Shaun who are only arguing. Melendez has not even had a decent ending. All seemed rushed and unnecessary. You destroy your show in only one episode (320). Congratulations....
Melendez and Claire were my little idiotic happiness on Monday. I will always remember them and imagine that they finally have the happy ending they deserved. Goodbye.
Feels empty watching the show without Melendez.
The saddest part of this is not that Claire and Melendez’s story were cut short but that they never had anything to begin with in the first place rather than just their feelings for each other which they didn’t acknowledge until Melendez dies
Missing melendez so badly 😭
❤️🥲🥲
Anyone else here that stop watching the show after this scene? 🙋 I tried to watch the first 2 episodes of the new season, i really give it a chance, but I just couldn't go on with it. The show was just... I don't know... like something was missing, nothing there made sense anymore, not for me anyway. And, after some weeks of thinking, I just realised, the missing piece, the one that made this show great in the first sesons, was this guy, the great and only Neil Melendez, the only scenes bearable to watch from season 4, were the ones in which he showed up. Miss you forever, Dr. Melendez! 😢😢
I stopped watching after 3x20.. and they've already lost 3.7 million viewers
@@sole449 I'm happy to hear that, I hope they will continue to lose many more viewers. Because they deserve just that after the move they made for pure "shock value" this is the worth of that creative idea of killing the character that gave so much value to this show.
@@RBSR23 I hope it gets cancelled
I literally can't watch the show without Melendez it's like he's supposed to be there helping and giving encouraging words while being blunt at the same time. The energy is off without him
Feels weird watching The Good Doctor without him. The energy is off without Dr. Melendez! I'm trying my hardest to get into this season but I just can't. And I just can't stand Lea I used to be able to tolerate her but ever since she did that to Shaun & ever since the producers picked her over Dr. Melendez I really can't stand her.
@@katie2967 happy to hear that someone feels same like me!
Out from respect to the show, I forced myself to watch 7 episodes, but couldn't stand it. It did not get better
@@with-BANDURA Not to add that the story lines are just getting ridiculous like having Nicholas come back as a hallucination for Claire was just complete bullshit! I mean seriously taking the love of her life and bringing him back as a hallucination was just complete and utter bullshit, I was sitting here thinking really hasn't Claire suffered enough first she loses her mother and then she loses Neil how much more are you going to put Claire through? And then they come up with this ridiculous storyline where Shaun starts having inappropriate feelings for another woman while he's with Lea it's like seriously you go through all this trouble to make those two a couple just to turn around and "Almost" have Shaun cheat on her didn't make any sense to me not to add that they have Dr. Lim get in this motorcycle accident and she doesn't have one broken bone not one she just walks into the ER with just a couple scratches and I'm thinking seriously? I just thought that was completely unrealistic because she would have had way more injuries than that.
@@katie2967 oh yeah the ghost thing was ridiculous! I mean it is medical show, she having hallucinations means she has some kind of tumor (as Dr. HOUSE would say) and then those lines were complete shit.
Yeah, storylines are super not natural, they all develop so fast, and they almost cut all the lines which they made through the seasons and start them over. I mean Park should have left or his family should join him here, they made it clear that he wants to have family back. Then Reznik story which became quite interesting to the end of season 3 is forgotten. And Shaun and Lea, I have no words about it, I fast-forward through it. It is super annoying. This relationship turned Shaun back in his development. Now he is sex obsessed teneger.
It is sad, that good show became this. Double sad, because I didn't watch anything in very long time what would be so enjoyable.
I gave 4th season a chance, but after I watched this week episode, I gave up. The writers had their time to prove worth of that "creative idea"...
@@with-BANDURA Not to mention that another thing that pisses me off about the show is the fact that they bring in Andrews niece and she gets way more backstory than Neil does and she's not even in the show four episodes! And Melendez was in the show three years and the only thing we find out about his life is he had a sister that was disabled that he took care of and before we can find out anymore about his life they kill his character off and that pissed me off.
Another thing that is really irritating me this season and maybe I'm overreacting a little bit but nobody and I mean nobody except for Dr. Lim and Claire has even addressed it or showed any sort of emotion that Neil has passed away or even addressed it not even Shaun has even acted like he cares that Neil's passed away. The only two people that has even visited Neil's grave is Audrey and Claire. You would think at least Dr. Glassman considering how long he's known Dr. Melendez would at least show some sort of emotion or even visited his grave, I mean has anyone even told Jessica that Neil passed away? I mean I wonder.
The way he died was stupd, there was no closure and they left it hanging like they wern't sure what to do... ugh, they had a more interesting story than shaun and lea
Exactly!!!
Honestly there was no closure I thought the ending was extremely inappropriate and unnecessary no disrespect to David Shore or Daniel Dae Kim cuz I think they're both brilliant producers but they didn't even have the decency to give Neil a proper death! And that pissed me off.
I love Neil and everything but they didn't need to bring him back as a hallucination I thought that was extremely inappropriate. Because all they're doing is torturing poor Claire. Bringing him back in flashbacks is one thing but bringing him back as a hallucination in my personal opinion was completely disrespectful and inappropriate.
I would have even been happy if they would have brought Nick back as another character on the show just as long as we got to see Nick again. I just thought the whole hallucination thing was complete bullshit I'm sorry even though I was happy to see Dr. Melendez again I still thought it was bullshit! Because the whole time I'm watching the episodes I just wanted to cry and wanted Dr. Melendez back plus it just pisses me off that they picked Lea over him.
@@katie2967 Yes them constantly hurting Claire is ridiculous, can she please be happy without having her heart stomped on!!!
I prefer ANYONE over Lea, I can't stand her 👎so can imagine how pissed off I was when they saved her but killed Neil!!!
Yes the hallucination hurt because he kept talking about him and Claire not having the chance to be together, it's like the writers wanted to rub salt on the wound! 💔
I would've definitely preferred seeing flashbacks, it would've been nice seeing a peek into the time they spent together when they weren't working💘
@@asiyah7714 Exactly! Not only that but last night's episode pissed me off too because they could have at least had Neil tell Claire before he moved on that he loved her.
@@katie2967 YES!!!
the good doctor writers... you did this for what??????
Creative reasons 🙄
Likeeeeeeee for whatttt????
WHAT WAS THE REASON BITCHHH??? No honestly the broke my heart
One reason that keeps me watching Good doctor is Dr Melendez and the whole romance building up with Claire, after season 3 I dont feel like watching it again.
They could have killed shaun, lea, glassman and plenty of other characters and i would have still been fine with it. But not my boy melendez😭😭😭
man, if you call THAT closure....
You know how I always felt Claire and Melendez were supposed to be the happiest couple ,then Melendez dies ,,that was a deal breaker 💔
May 2021...I’m still heartbroken😔💔bring Meléndez back pleaseeeeee
When we asked for dr. Melendez back, this is not what we meant
THEY COULDNT EVEN GIVE MY MAN A FUNERAL!😭
I stopped watching after he died . I cried so much for a week couldn't get over the fact that they couldn't get together
I'll never forgive this series for letting Dr Melendez die 😭 they need to bring him back
When she said "He changed me" I choked up a bit
I will never watch this show again!!!! And this isn't closure! Melendez shouldn't be dead!!!!
Warched S3:E20 "i love you" oh my teeeaarrsss!!!! Dr. Melendez!😭😭😭😭😭😭
The scenes in which dr. Melendez appears bring us dubious feelings, of joy to see him and of much sadness for his death. 🤔💔😔
Literally turned off the show, and never watched it again after Neil died. Destroyed it with his death imo.
Same here. I was like I’m done I can’t believe they just did that, he was one of the best characters in the show.
It's nothing without you 😥😥 miss you
I am livid !!
I will never get over how dirty the writers did Claire in one season with her mothers death then the man who she let help her heal like why can't black women just be fucking happy ? Like fuck the writers, they had no good reason to kill Melendez off, we deserved a love story, esp being that it was such a slow burn.. not whatever tf this is.
i have never wanted to fight a plot this much 😭why building up this relationship (which was the most beautiful one out of every couple this show has)at 1st place if he was going to die at the end before they even started 😭
I mean, at least start the damn thing!
This show helped me to find what I want in life and how to interact with people
We want Dr Neil back please.. 😭
#WeWantMelendezBACKandALIVE !
I haven’t watched the new season at all but did the show just forget about Melendez’s sister?
Dr Melendez was an integral part of the show
Can we stop torturing Claire please???
Melendez falls into coma and then he wakes up again after a long while... I prefer this to seeing him in Claire’s imagination
I miss Melendez so much
I would rather have dr lim pass away than having Dr Melendez passing away
Right?!!
Totally unnecessary... melendez didn't have to die... I hope writers are reading the comments here... no one absolutely no one is ok with this.... it just doesn't make sense
Everyone is pretty much saying the same as me WHY DID Dr. Melendez have to die???😭😭
do shows writers knows that a lot of people stop watching their shows when they kill off main characters like this!!
his death was so unnecessary... what's the point of the whole building up, the slow burn, and then kill him off like that?!
this scene is beyond painful. that "I can't wait to see it" breaks my heart more than I can express. he will aways be with her, but we won't see it.
heartbroken. we miss u Neil 🥺
Dr Melandez!!! 😭😭😭
Vuelve Doctor Meléndez....
Why kill such a huge charactor??????
He changed me and that's not gonna go away. 😭 Made me cry so much 🙄 why did they have to kill him off Claire was finally going to be happy
My heart is still broken.
I won't watch this series ever. .dr malendez was my favourite.. can't accept his death
I cried rivers after Melendez died. I loved someone who brought out the best in me. I realized very late and was afraid to let that person know in fear of rejection cz I felt that person had platonic feelings for me. Now I don't know whether I'd be able to find love again.
My motivation to watch this series was Melendez
And his association with Claire was the most interesting
Killing him sucks
Whether you invent some science fiction or anything just bring him back preeety pleaassssseeeee😥😥😥
They killed off an amazing character only to bring him back again as a hallucination realizing they went down the wrong direction with the series lmao
Thats so unfair,just when Claire had finally begun to find happiness in the form of romance and friendship with Melendez after bearing so much since her childhood,they killed the character which was totally unnecessary!
How is this closure???
It’s not
It's not closure in my opinion they're just dishonoring his memory and his character they couldn't even have the decency to give him a proper death not only that they're torturing poor Claire don't get me wrong I love Neil to death but how much more can they put poor Claire through first they kill her mother off and then they have her and Neil fall in love and then they kill him off! It's like seriously and then they have her hallucinate that Neil's there it's like how much more torture do you want to put Claire through.
Not only that don't get me wrong I think David Shore & Daniel Dae Kim are brilliant producers but lately they are pissing me off with The Good Doctor I love the show don't get me wrong and there are incredible actors on the show and I think Freddie Highmore is an incredible actor but why did they have to kill Dr. Melendez off! Of all the characters to kill off why would you pick him to kill off. And no offense but of all the characters to keep why would you choose a character that was MIA half the time and wasn't even on the show, I understand that they wanted to see how Lea and Shaun's relationship played out but why couldn't they do that and have kept Nick on the show? Why did they have to kill off Neil in order to see how Lea and Shaun's relationship worked out? Why did it cost losing Dr. Melendez? I don't get it and it's very confusing to me.
And FYI in case someone wants to correct me on here Nick didn't leave because he had another project he stated in several interviews that it wasn't his choice to leave & David Shore also stated in several interviews that his leaving was for creative decisions. So yes it bothers me how they're doing the show right now and I'm happy and everything and was excited as hell to see Dr. Melendez this season but at the same time I wanted to cry because it's so sad to see Dr. Melendez on the show and know that he's not coming back & knowing that he's never going to be with Claire.
Because no offense I thought how they did last season was complete bullshit because what was the point in putting fans through all of that last season and doing all of that ring around the rosie bullshit with Claire and Neil making fans think they were going to put them together when the plan the whole time was just to kill him off why not just keep them as friends if they never had any intention in making them a couple I don't get it. Cuz that right there just pissed me off to my core. Even last night's episode pissed me off because they could have at least had Neil before he disappeared had him tell Claire he loved her.
I know the show isn't just based on Nick but the way they're doing it the last two seasons have pissed me off! I'm going to keep watching the fourth season to see if it gets any better but I hope this season Neil doesn't keep appearing as a ghost! Mainly for Claire's sake.
But they could always bring Nick back as another character on the show! I mean they did that with Shaun's brother. It would be weird seeing him as not Dr. Melendez but they could do that. I'm just extremely upset how they did everything on the show I'm happy to see Dr. Melendez but at the same time I just want to cry.
And I think how they killed him off was extremely tacky and very unnecessary.
I asked myself the same question!!!

Melendez is dead but park just said the most real thing to his wife
True...
Every time i see this scene.. Tear rolls down my eyes.. Characters are what we can relate to.. Melendez was one.. He didn't got his love.. His story could have been better..
Claire has been through so much, losing her mom and losing her love interest. Still, there are so many things (or mysteries) about life and death that we can't understand, and so many things we can't control. I hope all the doctors know that.
Melendez we cannot forget uuuuu love from Kerala India 💜
I need Melendez and Browne more!
Bobby Ewing came back and so can Melendez!!!Bring him back!!!!
If he comes back he'll always be a ghost hanging around.
It's so unnecessary to kill Neil in such a way. That earthquake was totally ridiculous. Writers sucks
Grey's anatomy, Flash and now in The Good Doctor. Men, producers do like killing his characters.
Yesterday only I have completed season 3. Talk about closure, how will you bring closure to the fans.
