Re: What medical shows do you watch?

I don't have TV, but I rent Scrubs, Nip Tuck, and just recenlty released on DVD White Coat (It's about interns in the worst hospital in America, if you like Scrubs you'll find this hilarious)

ER if I am over someone's house.

Re: Grey's Docs in real role of nurses?

Bout Greys'...it was asked above if anyone noticed that in Grey's, the Docs seem to be doing nursing stuff. ALL the time! In fact, they often wheel their own patients to surgery and for diagnostic tests (just like the way it is in real life...). And anyone else get a little bugged with the Nurse's Strike episode?...thought it portrayed Nurses mostly in a silly way, even while they were seeming to make the point of how necessary they are. (Still, the show has such nice eye candy...) But back to the Docs doing nursing stuff...if they kept it to the Doc stuff only, it would be soooooo boring. They'd either have to film either the entire show in the surgery suite, or else have to just show the backs & shoulders of Docs looking over a chart and writing in it, trying to make fast getaways, or asking the nurses questions and then nurses chasing after them down the halls for signatures. Actually, if filmed like a real hospital, you'd see zillions of nurses and other support personnel and trying to spot the doc on your screen would be like trying to find Elmo! Not only that...catching the doc on film, actually in the same room with the patient taking the time to talk, would be as rare a likelihood as nabbing a picture of Tomcat's new baby...

I love HOUSE!!!! I am not a nurse yet but this show is very educational. I love Hugh Laurie's character...wish I could find a guy like that!! He is so real. I hate suck ups...

Totally agree - I love Scrubs!

Re: What medical shows do you watch?

Wow! Lots of Grey's Anatomy lovers here. I'm addicted to it right now. Love some of the eps where the nurses are portrayed positively (eg. when Izzie had to open a patient's chest and one of the nurses guided her what to do). But yeah, interns (and even attendings) here often do the work of nurses.

I also love House, mostly because of Dr. Gregory House's character and his relationship with Dr. Wilson. Not to mention those very interesting cases solved with House's Sherlock Holmes-like skill.

I still watch ER but not as rabidly as before. ER is a sentimental favorite for me coz even now I still remember the first scene where Dr. Greene was awaken by Haleh (or was it Chuny?).

Anybody remember Chicago Hope? I loved that show. I kept trying to find DVDs or even downloadable eps but I can't find one.

HOUSE and Trauma: Life in the ER.

Funny thing about HOUSE is that you see MD's performing nurses' jobs a lot of the time.

Grey's Anatomys and House!!!!!!!!! Not crazy about how nurses are depicted on GA but I love the show anyhow! Funny how they make it look like MDs have all that patient contact.
