As the parent of an autistic child, I was reluctant to watch this show which portrays a person who is not representative of most people with autism. However, this program does an excellent job of portraying the spectrum and is charming and entertaining to boot. I felt the romance was a bit too saccharine - men that perfect don't exist in real life - but the look at the law, the challenges faced by an autistic savant, and the depiction of how interacting with someone who either brings out the best or worst in us is outstanding. Strongly recommend it.
