This is the only good original Apple Tv ever made in my opinion.
This show highlights the highs and lows of the human condition. It shows humanity both at it's most selfless and it's most selfish. It's a very factual and honest depiction of a true story of a hospital that had to do the unthinkable during extraordinary circumstances. Before I share my praises about this series, I'd first like to share my criticisms.
The original book and historically event that this movie showcases is mainly focused on Doctor Anna Pou who euthanized patients and allegedly in real life made the choice to do that. In this series, she's relegated to a background character and the idea of euthanizing patients comes from the higher ups in the hospital. So while this drama is mostly factual, I feel like that very much detracts from the historical accuracy.
Also I don't feel like there was enough emotion from the characters. There should've been much more emotion given the circumstance.
For the praises, this series will keep you on the edge of your seat. It's a tantalizing watch and you won't be able to take your eyes off the screen. All the actors give performances you'd expect for their roles despite the lack of emotion.
While they aren't dead ringers for the real people, you can tell they're trying their best.
Overall, a solid 10 out of 10 and by far the best original Apple Tv ever made, although this likely could've been better had American Crime Story made it instead.
