Alicia I love this movie so much
Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
olsonmd-59967 I did enjoy the first episodes of this show, but it felt like it took a long time for the show to really dig into the personal life of the main character. And by the time they did, the show got cancelled. It's only one season, and the ending is way rushed. I think it had potential, but it's not worth the time for anyone to watch just this one season.
princess919 When I first saw this advertised I was ready to write it off but I thought, what the hell watch a couple of episodes just to see, I watched the pilot and and thought it was laughably bad (I immediately renamed the main character bimbette in my mind) then I picked a random episode (number 8) to see if they ever found their way it did after all contain a story about Bimbette's own father needing treatment so we might get some good character development, they did not, the episode in question was terrible. The entire premise of this series seems to be a love triangle that no one cares about, neither pairing is any good and the 'chemistry' is non-existent. The worst part for me is when Bimbette goes on about how the scariest part in the wizard of Oz was the realisation that there was no Oz... (oops does that count as a spoiler?) it was supposed to tell us about her as a person and all I got from it was that she was pretentious. If I could give this a minus score I would, if you want good medical drama stick to House, Casualty (a brit series), Greys Anatomy or even some old school ER.
acumind-92898 Before this program got off the ground, I read today it was canceled. I really thought this show would be like Grey's Anatomy and go for a decade or more. I really liked it and was telling everyone to watch it; they felt the same way. Now, it's canceled and I'm shocked. Surely, another network or Netflix, etc. could pick it up and keep it going. Melissa George is great. Dave Annable is playing yet another doctor with a heart of gold; this time with more spunk. To have D.L. Hughley, a comedian, playing the psychiatrist is brilliant casting. The back stories were great. The family at home was great with its twist. Don't let this show disappear! Keep it going on some other channel with people who know good network television when they see it.
Chargedbypizza If you appreciated the rebellious act that Hugh Laurie gave in House, MD then this show is for you, it has the same amount of rebellion, just toned down a lot. Despite what the critics and audience say if you give it a chance to evolve and explain itself the more you will like it. It's filled with interesting medical cases that at times take drastic turns, but these plot twists will make sense towards the end. It's a show that helps define girl power in the medical field, it has the right amount of dose of humor and sarcasm. Showing you that at times you have to break the rules and take chances even if it means there is a small chance that everything will be okay, or in this case, that everyone will survive. NBC already has two medical shows, both holding their own, both giving us the right amount of drama and blood, and characters to get hooked on, like this show does too. You can easily add this one onto the list of medical t.v dramas you don't mind watching. With just the right amount of silver linings, humor, sarcasm, medical talk, cases, and procedures, and a big giant amount of sticking the middle finger at authority. It is a light hearted medical drama that keeps you watching and wanting more.
