Season 2 of Brilliant Minds premieres on Monday night, and ahead of the new season, Tamberla Perry shared some insight into the show and how she feels about her role as Dr. Carol Pierce.
This season, she has some big choices to make as she works through divorce and a forced leave of absence from Bronx General. Will she move into a lucrative private practice? Or will she be back on the psychiatry team alongside Dr. Oliver Wolf (Zachary Quinto)?
Tamberla Perry Boldly Explains Why She Felt Like 'More of a Doctor'
When it comes to her role, Tamberla Perry felt like she was more prepared than her Brilliant Minds castmates because, before acting, she started preparing for a career in medicine. That training gave her a head start on the medical procedural based loosely on the life of a real-life neurologist, Dr. Oliver Sacks.
"I came in here kind of like I’m more of a doctor than any of you all because this is exactly what I was studying," Perry explained toRolling Outahead of the new season. "I understood how fast paced this industry is. I understood a little bit more of the terminology than I thought that I would coming into it."

But there are some general classes in entering medical school that all doctors have to take. I was like, okay, I think I got this. I think that might be a quicker study than I thought."
Tamberla Perry Reveals Longer 'Brilliant Minds' Season 2
Season 1 of Brilliant Minds gave us a thrilling 13 episodes, leaving viewers on a cliffhanger as we waited to see if the younger Dr. Wolf could, or even would, figure out what puzzling neurological condition was plaguing his father, Dr. Noah Wolf (Mandy Patinkin.)
Season 2 is going to go even further, with a 20-episode order that still hasn't even completed filming. In fact, Perry revealed that this season isn't even half filmed yet.
Perry explained, "We got 20 episodes coming at you this season and we are still filming presently. We’ve just completed episode six, we’re starting episode seven—13 more to go. So we are filming and airing at the same time."
This week, we got a first look at the new season, what to expect from the crew at Bronx General, and the latest cast members: Brian Altemus, John Clarence Stewart, and recurring star Bellamy Young. There are also some impressive guest stars in the upcoming season including Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams, Love on the Spectrum fan-favorite Connor Tomlinson, and 30 Rock alum Jane Krakowski.
Brilliant Minds premieres on NBC on Monday, Sept. 22, at 10 p.m. ET.
