NBC has canceled the medical drama Brilliant Minds after two seasons.

Brilliant Minds is based on the books "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat" and "An Anthropologist on Mars" by Oliver Sacks. The series stars Zachary Quinto as neurology physician Oliver Wolf, following "Dr. Wolf and his team at Bronx General as they delve into medical mysteries of the mind", per the official logline. Ultimately, they come face-to-face with the question: Who deserves care?

Season 1 of Brilliant Minds ran from September 2024 to January 2025, with Season 2 premiering in September 2025 and running for 14 episodes before NBC pulled it off the schedule in February as viewership dropped off. The series will return with its remaining six episodes beginning on May 27.
