I love Patricia Heaton (and Kyle MacLachlan). Raymond and Middle are two of my favorite shows. This show is terrible. First off, the laugh track (and the forced jokes) need to go. And the person who made that decision needs to be fired. Secondly, why do they make everyone look like imbeciles. These are physicians. Not junior high students. Why are they acting like idiots?
But the (my) BIGGEST problem with the show is how they portray the medical field (and medicine, in general). Do yourselves a big favor and get a nurse or doctor to consult. The absurdity of how the code on episode 3 was ran is just a brand new level of ridiculous. And heparin does not come in pill form, btw.
Also, the whole med rep thing is laughable. There are absolutely no med reps hanging out at the hospital. Not to mention, they aren’t identifying pills. There are these people called pharmacists who do that.
I just can’t understand how Heaton got herself in this mess. She had two awesome shows with long runs that ended successfully. To go out with this mess makes me sad. Hopefully they can save it. It has potential - kind of.
