I just wanted to randomly say that I like how the tv cord has a loop that makes a perfect heart.

I like Bones. It has no nurses, but lots of anatomy, trauma, cause and effect.

I haven't seen any TV shows that are centered around nurses, but I do watch Grey's Anatomy. In this show, surgeons tend to look down on nurses :( But, I still watch it anyway because I love the fact that it's in a hospital setting and all of the relationship dramas!

Call The Midwife. It's a BBC series available on Netflix and I'm completely addicted to it.

Nurse Jackie

I think it is the closest to the reality of nursing. I used to watch grey's anatomy until I realized that the surgeons talk down to nurses or spoke about nurses in a degrading way. Totally put me off of Grey's Anatomy after that! And the one thing that irritated me about Grey's Anatomy was that the SURGEONS were doing NURSING tasks and made it look like the nurses could in no way do those!! Yeah right!

I now cannot even stand to ehar WHEN Grey's Anatomy si aired!

So...Drama like "HawthoRNe" with Jada Pickett Smith in it. I liked it but it was a quick few seasons, all nurses! Then of course comedy "Scrubs" don't think I've been through them all on Netflix. Of course Grey's Anatomy then the spin off "Private Practice". All I found so far....
