Quinto plays Dr. Oliver Wolf, "based on a real-life person called Oliver Sacks, who was a world-renowned, iconic neurologist and prolific author, complex, interesting, dynamic, beautiful person." One of the things that stood out to Quinto was how unique the show is. "There have been so many wonderful and influential medical dramas over the years, and a lot of them deal with cases that are easily identifiable or solvable... in our show, the mysteries don't often have a fix. I love living in that space of the unknown." Quinto is most proud of being part of a show that often has a hopeful message. "It's looking toward the light. That's something I think we can all use a little bit more of." But Quinto doesn't feel the pressure to sell the show, partly because it has "humor and heart and light and love, but also substance." "I'm not really interested in having my experience or my life be dictated by things that I have no control over."What about this show intrigued you? The brain is the seat of consciousness. Consciousness is limitless. It’s a fascinating landscape to explore, and in so many ways is uncharted. The idea of doing a medical drama that’s dramatizing neurological diseases, disorders, injuries and conditions is something that I haven’t seen on television, and it was a really unique point of entry into a medical drama. Did anything surprise you? One of the things that I learned is just how nuanced the brain is and a way that might be unfathomable until it actually happens. By playing a doctor are you getting a lot of medical questions? I'm definitely not equipped to answer them. It is really funny to actually be in a position where I can literally say, 'I'm not a doctor, but I play one on TV. Call your real doctor, don't call me.Will there be a Star Trek sequel? I don't know. What I know is that it was probably the single most influential experience that I've had creatively and professionally and personally. I'd love to do it, and if we get to do it again, wonderful; if we don't get to do it again, it shaped and changed my life in ways that I will be forever grateful for, and that is something that I hold with a lot of gratitude.
