Not sure what to make of this honestly....first I've heard about it.
I like Elias Koteas, Christina Cox, and Adam Beach, but are the latter two even regulars? It seems a little heavy-handed with its humor, sentimentality, drama... No subtlety at all. Like it's trying too hard.
I might check it out but medical dramas get sappy and repetitive too quickly to keep my interest long if they aren't something unique.
This just looks like another Shonda Rhimes show to me. Medical procedural & people flirting and hooking up. The set-up looks a bit different, but that's just something minor after all. Considering that apparently there has been nearly any promotion I'm sure this will be cancelled quite soon.
That was my opinion of it too and her work bores as soon as I realize her characters aren't snarky and sarcastic.... just childish and selfish. Usually within 3 episodes.
Apparently the reason we haven`t heard of it is that it`s a Canadian and British production. ABC picked it up recently. It`s about an international group of nurses and the main character is Canadian. I may check it out, if only for the sake of Patriotism :P. It looks like Grey`s in Afghanistan, but I like Grey`s lol. We`ll see how it works out.
NOTE: Name-calling, personal attacks, spamming, excessive self-promotion, condescending pomposity, general assiness, racism, sexism, any-other-ism, homophobia, acrophobia, and destructive (versus constructive) criticism will get you BANNED from the party.

ReplyDeleteLooks like a reboot/update/reimagineing of the old series China Beach with Marg Helgenberger, Dana Delany, Jeff Kober, et al...

ReplyDeleteThat's the same way I felt about Rookie Blue. It was the same formula except with cops instead of doctors.
