A night-shift doctor at San Antonio Memorial, T.C. Callahan struggles to find the balance between saving lives and the hard reality of running a hospital. Joining him as he faces the sometimes dangerous task of running the emergency room are his best friend -- who often shoulders the unenviable job of keeping T.C. out of trouble -- former Army medic, Drew; lead physician -- and T.C.'s ex-girlfriend -- Jordan; and surgical resident, Paul. The rigors of the job may expose some personal weaknesses, but their shared drive to save their patients bonds them together in a tight-knit group.

The problem is that the bulk of the action and conflict are built around TC, who is a parody of a cliché of a stereotype. Go to Full Review Brian Lowry Variety 05/29/2014

01/17/2021 Acting is good, but this series only works if you know nothing about working in healthcare. Punching colleagues, and shouting at patients would just get you sacked See more 07/11/2020 Acting not believable... At all See more 06/22/2020 This is a rough one. Dont get me wrong, the acting itself is decent, however, the writing is a dumpster fire rolling downhill in san francisco. The big I had was that they tried to cram a whole bunch of drama and events in such a short time frame. Events that should have been drawn out through a whole season play out in one or two episodes. They definitely learned to space it out a bit in season 2 and later on, but season 1? Official diagnosis: Excessive Pilot season syndrome See more 04/12/2020 Pathetic writing. Cliched scenarios. Not even worth watching as background noise. See more 01/19/2020 honestly my fav show atm See more 10/20/2019 It passed the time, but you really need to suspend thinking about the inaccuracies of the medical parts of the show. The hail Mary last minute crazy ideas in this show would get a doctor in Seattle Grace fired. See more Read all reviews
