Emergency room nurse Jackie Peyton does everything she can to provide her patients with the best care possible while navigating the waters of a crumbling health-care system. But she has a secret that is increasingly difficult to keep from people -- she relies on Vicodin and Adderall to get her through high-stress shifts at a New York hospital, where she isn't above bending the rules to keep things running smoothly in the face of indifferent doctors, penny-pinching bean counters and miles of bureaucratic red tape.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Nurse Jackie matures into a disturbing chronicle of insurmountable addiction as Edie Falco's tragic protagonist hits rock bottom, but the sixth season's commitment to the repetition of drug abuse may prove too monotonous for some viewers.

Jackie's self-destructive roller coaster behavior, while true in spirit to the experience of many addicts, became stale years ago. Go to Full Review Joyce Wadler New York Times 12/27/2018
With Nurse Jackie you do not have a heroine who is smarter, nicer and more emotionally evolved than you, but whose behavior makes you feel so much better about yourself. Go to Full Review Joel Keller IndieWire 12/27/2018
Repetition is death to a series, and it gets to a point when you start to wonder if Jackie is just the best liar in the world, or everyone else around her is just plain stupid. Go to Full Review Tony Sokol Den of Geek 12/27/2018
It's got to be a psychic energy or something that Falco emits because everything about her performance is a red herring. She doesn't have to show a thing and she shows it all. Go to Full Review Stuart Galbraith DVDTalk.com 12/27/2018

andy h @RT38218989 05/01/2020 Season 6 improves upon season fives mistakes by going back to its original filmmaking and storytelling style while adding an accurate depiction of a woman's life falling apart from yet another relapse. See more 07/28/2014 Every single episode of this show can be described as follows: "A nurse struggles with her addiction while her marriage and family falls apart. Her personal life is also in shambles, oh wait it's looking up, no, nevermind, still a shambles." See more 06/29/2014 Talented cast , caught in a depressing endless loop of despair. Basically a one act pony show. See more 06/20/2014 Best written, acted, plotted, casted comedy series on Showtime. Please keep it coming more and more and more! The irony to me in the first few series was that Edie Falco was hooking up with Father Phil from the Sopranos. These writers are brilliant.l I believe that one was a nurse prior. The dialogue never disappoints and the actors' timing is always perfect. See more Read all reviews
