Critical

There are many medical TV shows out there but when I saw this advertised it looked different. Ever since I started watching I've been on the edge of my seat, and eagerly anticipating the next episode!! I can't rate Critical enough! In my opinion the acting of all the actors is amazing and the choreography and fluency of the characters is funny and enjoyable. The medical jargon and realism seem pretty outstanding (mainly because I don't get half of it)! But arguably most of all, the quality of the plot and the quality of the makeup for the surgery/injuries just takes my breath away!

I'm so hoping for a second season and one just isn't enough! Both me and my sister love sitting down and watching it together! And you should try it too!!

Incredible surgery scenes, so realistic, thriller concept, lots of blood and gore not for the faint-hearted, intriguing and major love story gone bad in the background. Love it <3

This might not be everyone's cup of tea but I loved it.Maybe not as good as Bodies the best medical show ever but still excellent.I love the increasing tension between the main characters.I hope there is a series 2 with some more back stories maybe? I don't imagine there is such a team in existence but I don't really care.When I first starting watching I was distracted by all the fervent glances but after a while the characters became real to me and I forgave the hospital drama stereotype. Maybe Our hero Glen does a bit of too intense angst but when he smiles all is forgiven.Of course when I see them saving someone who has had no oxygen to the brain for 10 minutes I cannot help but think that that is one of the things wrong with modern medicine.This show never tells us what happens to the saved person,presumable existing on in a home somewhere without quality of life. Still the show gripped me and was compulsive watching..

Very interesting how some have seen this as unrealistic, after 38 years of working in this environment, I can say it's very realistic, some of the cases are exaggerated and the timelines compressed for entertainment purposes, but the scenes are extremely realistic, and it's easy to recognise personalities in the characters, but it's understandable that it could be seen as OTT and too gory for many viewers.

critical is a gripping drama with a brilliant background story -I feel like I've gone through a trauma at the end of every episode never have I seen a program that has me on the edge of my seat like this! It's set in a 24 style with each episode being in real time 60 minutes.

Great acting, great story, brilliantly done -

Def a 10 out of 10 and cant wait to watch the next series

If you're looking for a exciting medical drama then look no further!
