Transplant - Ein besonderer Notarzt

Canadian TV often throws up some gems, this is shaping up to be one of them. A marvellous and original premise of a well-qualified immigrant doctor finding his way sets up some engaging narratives to challenge the protagonist. This innovation hoists this above the crowded morass of me-too medical dramas.

Some fine performances from Hamza Haq and Laurence Leboeuf of whom I was not previously familiar ably supported by the better known John Hannah and Torri Higginson. The plots are novel, the dialogue on-point delivering thoroughly entertaining TV compelling me to 'turn-the-page'. Currently I am halfway through season 1, my hope is that this fresh approach does not become diluted to mere procedural.

I saw an ad for the show on MSNBC. It grabbed me so I watched E1 on Peacock tonight. It was better than I could have imagined. Lots of heart, great acting and interesting plot. I wish Peacock would drop all the episodes at once!! Thanks CTV.

I'm really enjoying this new take on Medical shows. This show conveys how misconceptions of people can be really ignorant without getting to know someone's story first. These characters are wonderful. I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!

Transplant seems to be really hitting its stride, with each episode surpassing its predecessor in quality. Instead of focusing on bizarre and inaccurate medical situations to shock and entertain viewers, Transplant uses the setting of a hospital to tell unique and interesting stories about nuanced and realistic characters. It gives voices to the often under-represented, and tackles difficult and topical issues with ease.

Wow... I didn't expect it to be that heart wrenching. Starts off with a jolt! Very ER-esque. Doesn't stop for anybody. My heart was pounding and my pulse was racing as I watched the pain inside and out unfolding. I look forward to getting to know these characters. I hope all involved can keep up this quality and pace! If so, I'M IN!
