Nurse Jackie and HawthoRNe - thumbs up? or thumbs down?

About da%# time there was a show about a real nurse

Now, let's hope they do it well - keeping her real. I see a few hospital sex scenes - typical...they just can't resist...yup, that's actually real too.

I just finally want to turn on a medical show & see a nurse with a brain that isn't wandering around the hospital trying to marry the nearest doctor or being the most stupid person in the room.

Or maybe - a show where the NURSES ACTUALLY DO THE WORK - & THE THINKING!

My most (please catch the sarcasm) favorite episode of Chicago Hope: The one where the female Cardiovascular Surgeon stayed in her patient's room ALL NIGHT holding the patient's hand :chuckle:chuckle:chuckle:chuckle:chuckle Yeah, right!

I adore doctors, wouldn't have a world without them...but even they know that the medical world would fall apart without !!!!!

Finally!

I love House, but I have to suspend everything I know about how the health care world works to watch it.

Nurse Jackie, walks 24 hours a day with a stethoscope around her neck and gets frequently groped?

Hmmmm....I like House. Paranoid, screw ball doctors acting like god and stepping over nurses. Now thats reality!

I have no sound, but it appeared to me that Nurse Jackie was cavorting with the men and snorting something....Yes, that is just how we want nurses depicted on a TV show....
how nice for our image, once again.....

nurse jackie: "balancing the line between saint and sinner".
(that was one of the lines towards the end of the clip)
one nurse called her a saint, yet it shows her, yes, doing lines...
a seemingly oversexed, snortin' saint.

There are nurses in that hospital?

I didn't know nurses get groped a lot. Nurse jackie got groped multiple times. This is so not fair. Why don't I have docs groping me? Just kidding.

Ditto and I'm better looking than Nurse Jackie. Ha ha ha:chuckle
