Absolutely loved this series and so disappointed it is only 1 season!
As an RN in Australia, I appreciated all the outrages (and sometimes laughable) politics in public sector, and where the money is spent.
Acting and character portrayals were fantastic and I rode all the emotions with them.
I haven't read the book and most low scores on here are people comparing the book to the show, and as we know, if you've read the book it will always trump the movie/series because you have made your own interpretation of characters and environment.
Overall, well worth a watch!
