| I want some relationship drama or romance. Like maybe Langdon has an affair? |
| Is Langdon going to apologize to Santos? |
He should. He apologized to the patient but he should be making amends to his colleagues first who actually witnessed his behavior. |
| Why didn't Langdon go work at a different ER? |
Because then he wouldn’t be on the show |
A different ER might be reluctant to hire him. |
She is SO ANNOYING. And not in an enjoyable way. I am THIS close to giving up on this otherwise-good show because that character is so unbelievably irritating. |
This would be kind hard to do on a show depicting real time. What are you suggesting, he hate-shaboink Santos in the laundry between patients? |
Well he tried to do this to Mel last night. |

I think the writing so far is a little less crisp as season one. The foreshadowing is too obvious.
For example, it is completely obvious that Ms. Perfection never-been-sued Dr Al-Hashibi was a going to make some kind of colossal error by relying on genAI instead of her gut. |
|
*sorry IS going to make some lawsuit worthy mistake. It hasn’t yet happened. I bet it does in the next four or five episodes. She will rely on GenAI and not trust her gut or overrule some nurse who has seen it all. And a patient is going to die or something.
Watch. I would bet my house this is where they are going with this. |
She was a tad less annoying in episode 2. I’m now at least curious where they are going with her. |
| Loved season one but season two is very flat so far. |
Agree. I can’t tell if the novelty of season one is what made it so good, or the fact that I came to it late and binge watched, so didn’t notice how slow it can be. |
I don't know if I agree, because they are also setting her up to be unlikeable and portraying her approach as heartless and overly reliant on technology, while showing Robby being right (over her objections) over and over. I see that as them setting Al-Hashibi up for a redemption and Robby up for a fall. In Season 1 they would make feints like this and then upend your expectations. Like thinking Dr. Sanchez was just an arrogant jerk in the first few episodes and then discovering she's actually kind of awesome. Or showing Langdon bonding with Mel so that you come to really like him, which results in the viewer being hurt and betrayed when it turns out Sanchez is right about his drug abuse. I trust the show not to do the most obvious, predictable thing, and to make the characters more layered and interesting than that. |
