action
The Dr. Susanne Molberg ("Dr. Molly"), chief physician of the neurology ward, is called the psychologist Dr. Carlotta Edelhardt ("Karl") put aside.

reception
criticism
The critical reactions were mixed to negative. Above all, the lack of originality and the clear parallels to Dr. House . In the Deutsches Ärzteblatt , the series was described as a "copy" by Dr. House called. Manuel Weis fromquotemeter.de also commented: "Those responsible for Sat.1 and the series creators of the format" Dr. Molly and Karl "have not tired of emphasizing that the new Medical series is not a copy of "Dr. House" is. At this point it must be clearly stated: Yes, it is. [...] Even if the weaknesses mentioned are still there, it was a bit of fun to watch the series. Nevertheless, 'Dr. Molly and Karl' disappoints , precisely because there are worlds between the role models and the German production. " Michael Reufsteck from Fernsehlexikon.de said: "Yes, we've known all of this for about 80 episodes on Tuesday evening. But two new factors come into play: A second main character who is meant to be equal (which is nonsense, because the character of Dr. Molly outshines all others Characters), and an apparently loving, balanced private life, which the author has ascribed to the main character and which of course does not exist in Dr. House . But that doesn't make the doctor fat either. Who knows and likes Dr. House could also be Dr. Molly & Karl like. If you don't know Dr. House at all, you might have better chances in this regard. " The criticism on Spiegel Online , on the other hand, was relatively positive: "Of course this is very reminiscent of 'Dr. House' [...]. The structure of the episodes [...] was also based on US templates such as the hospital series Grey's Anatomy '. Nevertheless, author Martin Rauhaus has succeeded in developing a German form that does not look like a copy, but has found its own language, rhythm and level of humor. "
In 2009 the series was nominated for the Adolf Grimme Prize .
