[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I must be the only one who is meh about this. 7 episodes in and done.  To me it was ER in 2025 and I loooooove ER.  That is still a comfort show of mine.  This was to me exactly like ER.  The prob I also had is that who can go through that much intensity in an 8 he shift day in and out without a nervous breakdown?! Holy shit - it's just too much drama and heavy to watch and it's just a show for me - it lost me when it breaks down the time frame like that.  I also do not believe any busy ER doc would have taken the compassion to do what Noah's character did like give the brain dead teens parents that much time to absorb his death by ordering brain scan tests and what not.  I simply did not believe the stories the way h believed them on ER.  It just seemed like it reflects everything wrong in todays world in that it's telling the same story as ER but for me it's a complex bore - the original was so much more compelling because it was easier somehow.  This is just so complex it bored me.[/quote]

I loved the show quite a bit. I will say that to be honest, I thought that perhaps one reason why Dr. Robby took so much time with the parents of the brain dead teen (while at the same time he kept trying to rush Mo) was because he very much wanted the parents to donate their son’s organs, and there is no way they would have agreed to that if he had broken the death to them in an hour.  I saw it as a bit of a calculated move rather than all caring (note how he got that female employee who would discuss organ donation involved right away).  [/quote]
