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

The upheavals at All Saints Hospital still make for addicting television, but this third season suffers from formula fatigue as Jackie's actions continue to escape meaningful consequences.

Has an ongoing problem -- and I'm not talking about a drug addiction. Edie Falco continues to live up to her Emmy win in the title role, but the rest of the cast just doesn't have enough to do Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com 12/26/2018
4.5/5
The writing is strong but everything that truly works about "Nurse Jackie" comes back to the work by Mrs. Falco. She's stunningly good. Go to Full Review James Walton Daily Telegraph (UK) 12/22/2018
The law of diminishing returns is proving as merciless as ever. Edie Falco's central performance is still superb. The show itself, though, appears to be stuck somewhere between treading water and running out of steam. Go to Full Review Lorraine Zago Rosenthal PopMatters 12/27/2018
7/10
Although Nurse Jackie's third season isn't quite as strong as it has been in the past and would benefit from a deeper analysis of Jackie's personality, its many good performances and its shrewd blend of comedy and drama make it worth watching. Go to Full Review Tobias J. McGuffin TV Equals 12/26/2018
If there was any criticism I had of the first two seasons of Nurse Jackie, it was the fact that Jackie basically was getting away with murder... This season it looks as though it's going to unravel. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
