Episodes
In the premiere, an idealistic Dr. Devon Pravesh faces the harsh realities of medical care on his first day as an intern when third-year resident Dr. Conrad Hawkins takes him under his wing and teaches his unconventional ways for treating patients. Meanwhile, Conrad goes head-to-head with chief of surgery Dr. Solomon Bell, who uses power and intimidation to cover up his mistakes.
Conrad receives the call he's been waiting for when a heart becomes available for a patient who has been on the transplant list for two years. But when a congressman is admitted to the hospital after a heart attack, he is prioritized and derails Conrad's patient's surgery. Meanwhile, Nic grows suspicious of one of the doctors after a file goes missing; Dr. Bell tries to manipulate Mina; and Devon is put to the test when a patient's condition requires a split-second decision
An old Army buddy and fellow surgeon visits Conrad at the hospital. Meanwhile, the team is put to the test when they have to save the life of an uninsured and undocumented patient, while simultaneously battling the hospital's administrators, who fear the patient will cost millions. Also, Dr. Bell experiments with a new medication for his tremor and Nic swears to investigate the mystery surrounding missing medical records
After a mix-up in the ER causes Conrad to deliver a death notification to the wrong family, he sets out to fix it. Meanwhile, Nic struggles to find a patient's records who has been under Lane's care; Devon forms a bond with an elderly patient; and Mina is benched after overreaching in the surgical unit.
Three concurrent surgeries at the hospital push its staff to the limits. Determined to ease the pressure, Nic requests Jude for one of the operations, making Conrad jealous. Meanwhile, Dr. Lane Hunter sets out to discredit Nic's claims, Devon struggles with a patient who has an embarrassing problem and a charitable contributor comes to the hospital wanting to donate a lot of money to Dr. Lane's oncology program.
As Conrad battles a group of overly aggressive attending physicians on behalf of a patient with a mysterious chronic ailment, he also must face off against his father who has shown up at the hospital unannounced. When Mina goes out of her way to help a young man from her neighborhood who almost mugged her, Nic offers her assistance and discovers a secret that Mina has been keeping. Nic enlists the help of Devon to keep an eye on Lily, which leads him to an incredible find.
Conrad goes head-to-head with Lane when he disagrees with her over a treatment plan for a terminal cancer patient. Tensions rise when Jude inserts himself in the middle by offering to perform the invasive procedure Conrad is fighting against. When a VIP patient crosses the line with Nic, she must devise a strategy on how to stand her ground and combat the situation. Meanwhile, Bell realizes he'll need Mina's hands more than ever.
Nic and Conrad decide to admit a homeless Jane Doe, whom they suspect was dumped off by another hospital during Chastain's big Charity Ball. Elsewhere in the hospital, Devon and Irving care for a male escort who offers surprisingly good advice.
Conrad's ex-fiancé is admitted to the hospital with abdominal pain that proves to be a medical mystery. As Conrad doggedly tries to figure out her diagnosis, Nic gets some insight into Conrad's past.
Conrad is hit by a bike and badly sprains his ankle, but works through it when he takes the case of his old medical professor, who is hallucinating visions of her old patients. Devon is tasked with admitting Conrad, who refuses any sort of treatment. Nic tries to navigate her emotions while mourning the loss of a patient and Bell operates on a foreign dignitary with unforeseen complications. Meanwhile, Lane and Bell's relationship grows closer.

Critic Reviews for The Resident Season 1
All Critics (22) | Top Critics (11) | Fresh (13) | Rotten (9)
Something's got to give. And I'm interested just enough in The Resident to see if something soon does.
A familiar medical show filled with broad strokes and broad characters that might - like "The Orville" and "9-1-1" - bring some viewers to the party too.
Perhaps "The Resident" will click with folks disenchanted with medical care. This show's mix of good acting, melodramatic writing and hospital horror could serve that huge audience.
Although the series milks melodrama at every opportunity, it explores interesting ethical issues arising from its fundamental premise that a medical institution's concern for the bottom line sometimes takes priority over saving lives.
There are so many other medical shows you could be watching. Try one of those and call me in the morning.
The Resident Season 3 is an exceptionally good season of television.
The show is forgettable at best and awful at worst, and even a couple of intriguing moments can't change that fact.
This medical drama has a solid premise but some of its outlandish moments undermine its stories.
The Resident still scores the occasional hit, even if it does so clumsily.
Fox's new medical series The Resident is the funniest show since Scrubs. Like that beloved NBC comedy, it features dastardly docs, naive newbies and nutty patients with the most bizarre ailments... It's a drama. Oops.
There's a lot to love about the medical drama. It puts a new spin on the genre by painting veteran doctors as sleazy, power hungry people - a role usually reserved for hospital administration in this kind of show.
Harrowing medical drama about hospital politics, ethics.

Feb 19, 2020Love it, the characters are great!

Dec 08, 2019Just mind blown by the premise, the setup, the lead actors Indian guy and his senior guy foremost are terrific performers and handsome men. Everyone else are in their shadow, but are as good if you go deeper. What a show! I don't want to lie, I just binge watched the entire season in 2 to 3 days. :)

Nov 28, 2019Great show, yet another example of Tomatometer being biased and out of touch with the audience.
-
Oct 14, 2019Basic good bad tv but gets a bump because it addresses real issues in US hospital and medical system. Of course too sexist, why that part of reality always ends up on tv is a puzzle. It's nice relaxing but not mindless tv. And I am interested in the characters. A+ for diversity casting. (Of course "The Resident" is cis straight white male, whom I do enjoy gazing at despite the STUPID giant tatoo the show put on his back.)

Apr 17, 2019My wife and I have fun creating our own script as each episode progresses. I didn't know Theo Huxtable went to med school !

Apr 07, 2019Disgusting display of toxic masculinity from Conrad. This is the type of crap I was expected to put up with for years in tech. A supposedly "brilliant" jerk, a total asshole, bops along through the world mistreating people and objectifying women. He pretends he sees things others don't when really he just steals all the oxygen in the room so no one else has a chance to do their job. His power displays and need to make his peers subservient is sickening. The sprinkling in of "good guy" acts perpetuates the really bad idea that enough "good" acts somehow excuse all the bad ones. Hint - they don't. He's still a class A asshole.

Apr 02, 2019This show is good on fundamentals; cast is diverse. Great to see Jane Leeves (Daphne in the 'Frasier' series) back on the screen!

Feb 19, 2019CAN A ONE DOCTOR FIX A BROKEN SYSTEM? Man that whole question was put to side and forgotten by purpose in the middle of the show, that said it isn't a bad way to kill one hour of one of your week nights.
