Heartbeat

Loved loved loved it!! I am not a fan of Melissa George, esp with her view on Australia, but the guys are so great and she is actually great in this too. The relationships in this series are just inspirational, they make you want better for you and your friends and your family, and even strangers. . Only just got going as a series and it's gone. I want it back!! Please bring it back somebody!

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!!!!!!

Dr. Alexandra Panttiere (Melissa George) is a rebellious heart surgeon in St. Matthew's Hospital. Dr. Pierce Harrison (Dave Annable) is her boyfriend. Dr. Jesse Shane (Don Hany) is her long time crush. Max is her gay ex-husband with her kids. Millicent Silvano (Shelley Conn) is her suffering boss trying to keep her out of trouble. Dr. Callahan (Jamie Kennedy) is the sleazy womanizer and nurse Ji-Sung struggles to keep from falling for him.

This show tries so hard to do so many different things. It's trying too hard to be wacky. As a medical show, it has the serious side. On top of everything, it's trying desperately to be 'Grey's Anatomy'. I would prefer it does less of the silly stuff. They mostly come off as stupid. It's different from being fun. I wish the best for Melissa George but the show has saddled her with too many connected characters. It's as if the showrunners figured more is better. This could have been one more functional medical show but it's juggling with too many balls in the air.

Irritatingly bad: cliché upon cliché.

Alex Panttiere (played by Melissa George) is a cardiothoracic surgeon, and a very good one. She has just been appointed to a senior role at a major hospital. While this brings more responsibility, it does not dull her rebelliousness nor unconventional methods.

Incredibly unoriginal. Every medical drama stereotype and cliché is regurgitated here, over and over and over. Dialogue makes you think every character should have been played by John Wayne, it is that over-the-top.

Plot is largely implausible, contrived and predictable and and acting rather hammy.

Melissa George deserves better. As for the remaining cast: I think they've found the maximum level of their abilities and careers...
