Alex Borstein, Laurie Metcalf, Niecy Nash, Mel Rodriguez.
Set in a women's extended-care unit of a California hospital, the story follows the daily lives of a ragtag staff assigned to care for elderly patients who are, well, getting on. Nurse DiDi is the no-nonsense newbie, Unit veteran Nurse Dawn is tasked with training DiDi, but winds up obsessing over male Supervising Nurse Patsy. Disgruntled Dr. Jenna James continues her above-it-all temper tantrums despite being given a fresh start.
DVD; Full frame 16x9 presentation; 5.1 Dolby Digital surround.
COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Fantastic Series submitted by katieh on June 18, 2016, 2:20pm I don't know why this show hasn't gotten more attention! The show is clever and irreverent and also has an honesty about it when it comes to elder and end of life care. Niecy Nah and Alex Borstein have wonderful chemistry on screen and I lose it laughing at least once an episode. If you like Nurse Jackie with less drama, this is for you.
Funny submitted by jibkidder on July 27, 2022, 8:53am A very funny, bleak, hospital satire with a standout return to the screen for Laurie Metcalf (where she has, to our benefit, seemingly remained) that especially resonated with me having worked for years in a hospital.
