Steineded How sad is this?
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Josephina Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
kgreenway55 this show was awesome don't understand why it was took off air. I would love for it to comeback. I wish i knew who else to contact to make it happen . these actors are awesome on this show. TNT was crazy for not continuing it again. i wish they could pick up where the cliff hanger left off. Michael Vartan and Jada Picket Smith were great together. i also thought all the others did a great job. I could see this being as great as Grays Annomy why it wasn't i will never understand. Does anyone know if there is a chance they could comeback? I would like to know what all them are doing now. They were so great together it is hard watching them apart.
Loly Jones Really good TV series but season 3 was messy. I feel that the writers of season 1 and 2 were different writers in season 3...here an explanation of the mess in season 3 (Spoiler): ***Who would attack Christina so viciously and why? Explanation they try to sell on Season 3: They said that the attacker was a man (Gerry Brandon) who dropped off his daughter (Vivica Cross) at the hospital and disappear because her diabetes got bad on Season 3, Ep 2.How is possible this man was the attacker of Christina in Season 3 Ep 1?? Nick, the detective, killed this man and at the end of Season 3 Ep 1 he brings the ring of the attacker to Christina in the hospital ( The only thing Christina remembers of the attack was that he was wearing a ring with ruby stone).How could the father drop off his daughter if Nick killed him in the previous episode? His dead body is found on Season 3, Ep 3...in Episode 4, detective James Dupree disclose to Tom and Christina that "According to the autopsy report of Gerry Brandon from the time that Christina was attacked to the time the attacker was killed ..was just 19 hours". From Season 3 Ep 1 when she was attacked to when Vivica Cross was drop off in the hospital few days already pass, just look at Christina's recovery...Impossible for the same person to attack Christina and 3 days later drop off his daughter at the hospital....HUGE mistake from the writers.( Season 3 ) Episode 1: Christina gets attacked / Nick killed the attacker and brings the ring of the attacker to Christina in the hospital ( The only thing Christina remember of the attack was that he was wearing a ring with ruby stone).Episode 2: Gerry Brandon dropped off his daughter (Vivica Cross) at the hospital and disappear because her diabetes got bad. He kidnapped her 4 years ago, he was an abusive man to his wife, Renee Cross. Christina looks like already pass at least 3 days from the attack.Episode 3: Gerry Brandon body is found and reported to be Christina's attacker.Episode 4: Detective James Dupree from Internal Affairs disclosed to Tom and Christina that "According to the autopsy report of Gerry Brandon from the time that Christina was attacked to the time the attacker was killed ..was just 19 hours".Episode 5: Detective James Dupree from Internal Affairs asked Christina "if she ever solicit detective Renata to kill her attacker?" and interrogate Nick about the dead of Gerry Brandon who was part of a gang. Dupree claim Nick found out who was the attacker thanks to the security cameras in the area. Christina save the ring from her attacker under the wood floor of her house.Episode 9: Nick's mother died. A message saying "Eye for an Eye" was written with red can paint in the walls of his room with a ring hanging from an screwdriver similar to the one from Christina's attacker, Gerry Brandon, who was part of a gang. A older man with similar ring take the elevator hospital with Tom and makes sure he recognize the ring...same man show up at Nick's mother funeral.Episode 10: The man with the ring show up at the hospital again and see Christina. Nick gets shot in his car. END.More questions: ***Where is Dr Erin in season 3? ***What happened with Candy and Ray? I know they split but why, where is Ray? ***Miles and Camille (really with a married man?!)..Where is Marcus?
korgaard59 I hear that the show has been canceled, and while it is sad that the fine (albeit underused) talents of James Morrison and Anne Ramsey will have to go looking for other work, I could not be happier. It's not just that the whole "health care professional who cares too much" theme is so tired and sick that it vomits self-satisfied dust. It's not that Jada (Whoever) Smith is an actress without the ability to even talk herself into a speeding ticket. It's not even that costar Marc Anthony exudes all of the machismo of a crack-addicted, syphilitic squirrel. The fundamental problem with this show is that although it tried to sell itself as a medical drama, it was in reality simply a comeback vehicle for (Whoever) Smith. Successful medical dramas are almost always the result of well thought out writing and ensemble acting. "House", for example, also has the main character's name as the title, but nonetheless employs a cast of well-developed ensemble players. Ensemble playing was apparently not considered appropriate for "Whoever" Smith's comeback vehicle, so the story line turned away from medical themes and devolved into a not very well done cesspool of soap operatic rape, rage, angst, and infidelity story lines. Better off dead!
auntydle I wanted to like this show but I was completely turned off by Christina's behavior in the first major scene of the pilot episode.I figure we were supposed to be cheering her on. After all, she's a crusader (maverick, rebel, whatever) who cares more about the patient than the rules. Because the rules are stupid, right? Never mind that she didn't have her id badge and looked like a lunatic, barefoot and unkempt, that night. If someone comes crashing through a security checkpoint in any building, and has no ID, they will be arrested. Seriously, what did she expect? Christina does whatever she feels is best for the patient, never mind the doctors, rules, or laws for that matter.I saw a bit of another episode and it was more of the same crap. A friend of Christina's had a sick baby and was allowed to skip to the front of the line. The doctor who tried to follow protocol is an a$$ who doesn't really care about the patients.Her behavior is supposed to be seen as courageous, I guess, because she's bucking a system that doesn't really work. But her methods aren't about changing the system. She only helps individual patients with their immediate problems. It's a sad truth that the only way to change a system is through the administration. So she's basically disregarding the best way to help the majority of the patients for the satisfaction of showing up an single doctor or administrator.
