What Medical Dramas Do You Watch on TV (or Did You Watch in the Past)?
There's been a lot of discussion on another thread about medical dramas lately. Since I watch a number of them myself, I decided to start a separate thread where we can list our favourite medical dramas and talk about them.
In the recent past, I've been enjoying the Canuck shows "Coroner," "Transplant" and "Nurses." "Nurses" is currently in its second season. If you're missing "Grey's Anatomy," you should try this as it's "Grey's" with the focus on the nurses. Although it's not as good as "Grey's," but very entertaining.
Of the three, I think I like "Coroner" the best. The mysteries are decent and it has a quiet quality, if that makes sense. It's not full of shocking moments (even though there are a few). But instead it concentrates on the characters and the dialogue and the work.
I also watch the U.S. medical quartet of "The Good Doctor," "The Resident," "New Amsterdam" and of course "Grey's Anatomy." They approach similar issues in different ways and I find that interesting. There's terrific acting in all four, in particular I love Freddie Highmore on "The Good Doctor" and also Ryan Eggold on "New Amsterdam," who's had some challenging storylines at the very least. And there's a photo of his character, Max, under "do-gooder" in the dictionary haha. Also, the soundtrack on "New Amsterdam" rocks.
Hopefully others will chime in!

If I had more time, I would have written a shorter post
