Finally a medical drama that is along the lines of House with unlikable characters that are brutally honest and brilliant, acting that shows the caliber of the cast, and what it has that House didn't is a realistic view of American modern medicine. As someone who watched their mother battle cancer off and on for 14 years I really like how this show portrays quality/quantity, bottom-line mentality, and how the patient does not always come first if the paperwork doesn't pan out. It's horrible to think about, but heartbreakingly true. I too have an insurance that makes me hope and pray I never have to go to the hospital, but if I did, I'd wish for Dr. Conrad Hawkins and Nurse Nic Nevin.
