reputederror-1 Yes, I watched all seasons. At first it was okay. It wasn't really funny, there are a few spots that I laughed. It got a little "broken record" for my liking. I am honestly glad that ended it because I was begining to hate Jackie. Everybody bent over backwards for her and she didnt care. I felt like she broke Zoey's spirit in the end. I honestly think they could have wrapped this up after a couple seasons. They didn't need to drag this on for this long.

tiffleah When Nurse Jackie was originally on the air, I didn't have an interest in it. I was never a huge fan of Edie Falco, but this show changed my mind.I have to admit, it wasn't the first episode that got me hooked, it took me a few episode to get the gist of what was going on for me to really start to love it. Each character's depictions truly represented a real life person. All the characters were relatable in one way or another. You could definitely feel for these characters. Even though Jackie did some deplorable things to support her habit, you could really see that her job and her daughters were super important to her. Even though her relationship with her husband it rocky, she will always care about him and her for her. It is very realistic to see the evolution of all the character's relationships between each other.After season one, I couldn't put my iPad down. I watched and watched to see what would happen during each episode. I truly love each character and each episode brought something new to the table.It was a great show, and I would love for it to either be resurrected or spun off some how.

Rick LaBonte (fixit-04669) SPOILER ALERT. This show really stinks. It is really tough watching this sociopath destroy herself and everything around her. A little unnerving also seeing "Eddie" her enabler, who played the priest on the Sopranos. Did he come as a package deal with Falco I wonder? Yes, she is a sociopath, big time. Clever, charismatic, soul-less, without conscience, full of excuses designed to make you feel like crap. It doesn't help that Falco is b*** ugly. so much so that you want to kick her down a flight of stairs yourself. That mouth. That a$$. If you haven't started yet you might consider not watching the train wreck. I hate sociopaths and I don't like watching them on TV. I like watching them in a hearse on the way to the cemetery. Buh Bye.

david-86864 This was one series I could not stop watching. After just retiring after thirty years as a hospital employee, I had all the time in the world to click from one episode to the next. It's not unthinkable that a person with Jackie's addiction could be working in an ER. Pharmacy techs, I would say, would be the most tempted to use.One of my lost friends was fired because of his addiction to whatever he felt he needed at the time, as he swung from self-prescribed pain to psych meds, and provided them to a couple of his friends who suffered with RA and fibromyalgia. To those sufferers, he was a true life saver, a Robin Hood. But, even for him, his work had to end, which it did, in a mindset that left him madly searching for a new direction.The numbers of individuals today who suffer with real pain from car accidents, fibro, RA, spinal conditions and more is very high. Without a doubt, there was once many "pill mills" in this country designed to dish out any amount to whoever would pay. One man, I was told, raised a fortune by dealing with numerous pain managers who wrote out scripts for him for the most very sought-after drugs by street users. He left a bundle of money to his children when he passed away from old age. Sadly, his son today, in his thirties, cannot function well because he struggles terribly with alcoholism. A part time job as a fast food worker earns him enough to purchase cigarettes and beer while he lives on the patio of a friend."Nurse Jackie" did an excellent job in portraying real life with a not a too-difficult-to believe set of dilemmas inserted. The lies, the relationship issues, the jumping from one set of rules to another, the complete inconsistency of one's life, are real conditions of addicts' lives. How well hidden some folks are able to lie their way through life with acquaintances, friends, family members, coworkers, and rehab employees. Like the young boy with green hair, they know their life is owned by one substance or another. That is what life is about for them, just another mind alteration ahead. As a musician, I've seen these traits in action among fellow artists.This series is a wake-up call to the nation, but should not be used to foster the complete blocking of much needed pain meds for the truly ill, like those with cancer and nerve conditions that bring along with them pain and, all too often, a desire to commit suicide.It is those with real pain who need help, whether they fall into a kind of addiction or not. They need relief. That's what's wrong with this country today. In an effort to rid it of the abusers, it's killing the actual victims "living" with the most profound levels of pain. Let's allow them to live a life the best they know how, even though they sway from, in the least, bouts of constipation and the lack of concentration. Life is too precious to allow for the depths of agony pain sufferers today feel. Let's be compassionate. Let us pass medical marijuana laws and allow the use of medicine to provide relief for the victims of pain.
