The Night Shift

I would say this show deserves more than it's current rating.

I see folks bash it but after watching more than 1 episode ( most bad reviews watched the pilot and crucified it ) I can say this can have a future. It's well done the acting is good enough the cases are interesting and the whole military guys coming to the be a doctor at a hospital in a night shift is pretty interesting.

I would say, give the show a chance it can grow on you. I know the market is a bit saturated and over the whole medical drama theme. Now if you are completely over medical stuff then there is no convincing anybody.

I myself am never over good shows and this seems to be a good show. I ve watched till episode 5 and it's getting better and better.

Being a surgeon myself i watched two episodes (first two). I cannot believe my eyes! I know for cinematic purposes medical procedures are a little different from real world. But when you do open chest surgery in the ER, with no masks!!! What are the directors trying to portray here? Drama and coolness abounds but glaring falsity in treating patients must not be twisted. wrong wrong wrong. At least HouseMD and Greys anatomy do not distort the medical procedures (sterility etc). They need a medical adviser to make this better. The first episode with the doctor doing auto transfusion without filtering is again a misnomer with what we really do. I will not go to this hospital ever.

This show isn't the best show I've ever seen, but it's definitely a good one. The story isn't always consistent, and neither are the characters, but each episode brings a fun and new issue that the cast has to deal with. I watched this show with my little sister and we had a lot of good laughs and got completely hooked on the story. So although it's not revolutionary, super unique, or well written, it's entertaining and will do the job of stopping any boredom you might feel. Ragosa is my favorite :)

This show is terrible, but on a level where its almost playing on all the cliches that make network tv so bad. Which is why i love this show. It feels intentional by the producers, eerily similar to 90210, Party of 5, and Dawson's Creek of 20 years ago. Random slow motion scenes, ridiculous explanations for what caused the patients trauma, way over dramatized ER power struggles out of no where, wierd sexual tension, the stereotypes are perfect and extremely unrealistic, problems are solved out of no where throught an episode, and relationship paralyzing issues over the most random things. The acting is so on point, just like one of Christopher Guest's infamous mockumentaries.

If you despise network programming between the hours of 7-10 pm Monday-Friday, there is a good chance you will love this show.

I hope this runs longer than one season. I found it charming and uplifting that there could ever be a place where people meant more than the bottom line.The characters seemed to fit.The heart was in the place with each doctor nurse and staff. Maybe it is too much for some just coming back from duty,but I liked it. I will be tuning in each week to see what happens. I would class it in line with N.C.I.S and hope it stays around. I wish more shows were of the drama involved here.Inspired. Tragic brings hope without terror.Keep up the good work.The facts are that they don't take entertainment serious anymore. Casting works in this case the seem to fit just right.
