Watchseries; Show seems OK so far. Really excellent cast, likeable and good actors. Definitely on the melodrama side. Moralizing definitely on the heavy handed side.
Do note that a large number (16%) of the 1 votes are clearly politically motivated, from conservatives, because of the liberal slant of the undocumented immigrant plot line.
This show is far from perfect on the medical details, but the 1s are undeserved in my opinion and the lack of scores in the 2-6 range are really telling, with most scores 8-10.

The Resident watchseries. It's a TV show and stop saying that it is inaccurate, it's normal no one will use it as a guide for medicine in real life at least no one with brains! Not the most original storyline, but it does entertain, it's full with passion .

I don't even like medical dramas, and I like this one. Many of the reviews here are from those who only watched the pilot, which I admit showed a rather surface-level power clash of the two main characters. But as the show has gone on (I just finished S1 E6), it has gotten increasingly interesting and much smoother to watch. I mainly started watching because of Matt Cuzchry, and he holds down the cast with a strong performance every episode. I am fascinated with their exploration of corruption in hospitals (although I think it is exaggerated at times, but what drama isn't?!), and they do weave that theme into every episode.
Good overall mix of medical drama, a romance, and individual character stories that have gotten more complex and real. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out!
I love both main actors, so that makes this show fun. But I especially appreciate the truth about the medical field being exposed. Even if it's a bit exaggerated (which I don't need think it is), it's definitely close to the money. Great acting all- around. Sure hope it gets a second season!!

I took a chance on this one, seeing Emily VanCamp in the credits, and Matt Czuchry, thought might be good......I just finished binge watching the first season on Netflix!
It's a good mix of drama, comedy, real life issues regarding hospital life and and deeper look into cost, patient care, cover ups, and not too far fetched from reality.
It's a mix of, Greys Anatomy, House, and ER in one. I liked it.....alot!!

I get that there are series out there, that are much more medically acurate. And yes, The Resident plays with stereotypes and clichés. But it does so in a really entertaining way. So I do not get the negativity. I really enjoyed the first and second episode and look forward the what´s coming.
