Heartbeat

Before this program got off the ground, I read today it was canceled. I really thought this show would be like Grey's Anatomy and go for a decade or more. I really liked it and was telling everyone to watch it; they felt the same way.

Now, it's canceled and I'm shocked. Surely, another network or Netflix, etc. could pick it up and keep it going.

Melissa George is great. Dave Annable is playing yet another doctor with a heart of gold; this time with more spunk. To have D.L. Hughley, a comedian, playing the psychiatrist is brilliant casting. The back stories were great. The family at home was great with its twist.

Don't let this show disappear! Keep it going on some other channel with people who know good network television when they see it.

Love this show! Why is it canceled? It's hard to create a special character, you have one now. Season 2 please!!!!!!

I did enjoy the first episodes of this show, but it felt like it took a long time for the show to really dig into the personal life of the main character. And by the time they did, the show got cancelled. It's only one season, and the ending is way rushed. I think it had potential, but it's not worth the time for anyone to watch just this one season.

If you appreciated the rebellious act that Hugh Laurie gave in House, MD then this show is for you, it has the same amount of rebellion, just toned down a lot. Despite what the critics and audience say if you give it a chance to evolve and explain itself the more you will like it. It's filled with interesting medical cases that at times take drastic turns, but these plot twists will make sense towards the end. It's a show that helps define girl power in the medical field, it has the right amount of dose of humor and sarcasm. Showing you that at times you have to break the rules and take chances even if it means there is a small chance that everything will be okay, or in this case, that everyone will survive. NBC already has two medical shows, both holding their own, both giving us the right amount of drama and blood, and characters to get hooked on, like this show does too. You can easily add this one onto the list of medical t.v dramas you don't mind watching. With just the right amount of silver linings, humor, sarcasm, medical talk, cases, and procedures, and a big giant amount of sticking the middle finger at authority. It is a light hearted medical drama that keeps you watching and wanting more.

OK.. so it takes them all of eight episodes into the series to get to the real 'heart' of her personal story... and where it goes from here, we'll just have to wait see if it winds up to be anti-climatic. Have to give the production a bit of credit though.. it started off pretty routine, not so much different than a whole slew of similar medical-drama offerings ... but working it's way through the lead character's recent life history to get to this point, it did generate increasing interest.

Should it proceed the way it's now looking, the audience will be polarized.. as not many mainstream story lines fade to black with a three-way permanent relationship. The cast is solid.. and the story appears as if it will hold up through the ten episode season. Will there be any more? Viewers liking it much more than early critics, and George does a lot to try and pull it through. Guess the final couple episodes might hint at an answer.... (gets-cancelled).

Should the professional critics get an opportunity to rewrite their comments, it would be interesting to see how they now compare. PS... and as for trying to 'love' and have sex with two people at the same time... yea right!!! ... just see how well in 'real-life' that goes over on your partner/ spouse.
