The latest Nurse show premiers tonight on NBC at 10 PM ET. Will you be watching as "five young nurses embark on a high-stakes, life-and-death, emotional rollercoaster of modern nursing"? 

If you do watch it, come back here and tell us what you think.  Will you be watching for errors or misrepresentations of what nurses really do???  

Watch the official NBC trailer.

I'd love to watch, @tnbutterfly - Mary, but my TV satellite service dropped NBC. ?

I don't really watch TV myself, but one of the docs in our unit came in the other night and asked if any of us had seen it. Her comment was that it's unfortunate that it's just another show that makes nurses look dumb and over-emotional.

Possibly, but with my internet connectivity, I'd probably be watching it off and on and off and on for the next 2 or 3 days. LOL!

Specializes in Gerontology.

This is a Canadian show that debuted in early 2020. I found it fairly realistic 

it has been renewed for a second season.

Perhaps, NurseBlaq, because sometimes there's more drama in the reviews than in the show itself.

I know: You'll be there with the popcorn.

And my ginger ale, can't eat popcorn with no drink!

Specializes in Emergency.

I imagine it will be like all the other medical and emergency shows. A lot of drama and a lot of actual professionals yelling at their TVs. "That's not right! That's not how we do it...aargh!"
