Dr. Drew recently shared his thoughts on the new Showtime series PATRICK MELROSE and its portrayal of addiction. In a feature on IndieWire, Dr. Drew says he was pleasantly surprised by the show:

“The first episode I thought, ‘Well, pretty good! That is pretty much how heroin is,’” Pinsky told IndieWire. “And as I got more and more into it, I went, ‘Oh my God, this is a literary study of the condition of alcoholism and addiction in a very interesting, historical context.’”
