Great show! Great characters! Great plots! I am a physician and have been through "Monday Morning"-type scenarios but not as dramatic. Alfred Molina was superb as the Chief of Staff. I found myself laughing out loud at Dr. Park's character. What a pity indeed that this only lasted 1 season. I wish David Kelley read these reviews because this show was universally loved.

Why should this show need a "save" like American Idol ? Are there any savvy TV executives that will gamble and go for a "steal" ? Works for "The Voice". I was immediately drawn into the premise of this drama. It feels so real. I don't like some of the characters, then I do, just like life. Seldom does a show capture the viewpoints of all involved. David Kelly has been very inventive in the past and continues to do so. Please give viewers an option in our weekly viewing than countless, mindless reality shows. Stellar cast, well written, thoughtful subject material and they have only broken the surface. surely there is room for this series on the traditional schedule. If not more and more viewers will abandon cable subscriptions and eventually all that will remain is YOUTUBE ...

Besides all the negative appointments and the low rating, i find this show amazing! Against all odds, it's almost cool as House MD, witch i really loved. Each doctor is amazing, completely different from each other, with very strong personalities. The stories are cool and well made, and the medicine part is so realistic.There's some negative points, indeed, like the small cast. Will be a very difficult job to the writers to make more than twelve episodes, in my opinion. Each episode revolves around one or two specific cases. We could have one case for each doctor, for example. I think they should cover the personal life of the doctors, too. It's like if nobody got a family, kids, almost unreal.But overall, it's very enjoyable show. Give it a try before believing in the negative reviews done here.

We don't need a lot more comedy or what passes for comedy on network TV. There are not a lot of shows that take a serious subject and dramatize it so that people who do not just watch CNN and other news can be educated about what has usually been kept 'quiet'. Sanjay Gupta, MD has impressed me all through his CNN career and now he has written a book and collaborated on this TV series so that the general TV watching public can be educated without being 'lectured'. Its entertainment! I too miss ER but this promises to continue in the genre and its a sad statement on North Americans to see such negative responses. Maybe these people should mention the names of shows they DO think worth watching? what .. Survivor?? Anger Management?? Those of us who appreciate really intelligent scripts that for once are not from the BBC need to applaud the producers for serving up what I just told my husband I thought was now the best new thing on TV..and its not even about lawyers and cops! (we like those too). But Gray's Anatomy is more like a soap opera than a drama. Patients need this kind of wake-up lesson about not necessarily trusting the first doctor or opinion. I thought the acting was just fine and appropriate. Please please don't pan this promising new series!!
