Trauma

Trauma is a great show. I got into it initially by turning channels out of boredom. But once I started watching it, I was hooked! It's well-written, fast-paced, has great characters, actors & story lines. It's exciting & funny & emotional.

I'm thrilled that NBC is giving it a few more episodes - it blows most other shows away ( in terms of "watchability"), so I don't know why they'd want to cancel it ( although it seems like most of the really great shows get cancelled prematurely, IMHO). Please help keep it going!!

I don't watch too many TV shows, but I have to admit that I really look forward to watching this one - can't wait til it's back!

I've watched all the episodes, and I am really getting into this show.

Obviously it isn't completely realistic. If you want a realistic medical show, go watch a documentary. That's what documentaries are for... TV dramas are for entertainment.

And entertain, it does. The first episode seems a little shaky, but afterward the characters develop really well. They're all likable and engaging. In every episode, amidst cool rescue action, interesting aspects of their jobs and lives are examined. Eg they explore the characters' feelings and actions when dealing with issues like homosexuality, accidentally killing patients, friendship/hierarchy conflicts, being exposed to terrifying contagions, and all sorts of other things. Something completely different happens in every episode. It's interesting, fast-paced and unpredictable. It's also slowly getting better; they certainly don't seem to be running out of ideas.

Basically, good show in every possible way. Except realism, but that obviously isn't the point.

This is the first Fall in a long time where I'm actually marking my calender not to miss some excellent new shows!I only had a handful of shows that I looked forward to every week (prime-time). Now there's at least five more that I've added to my list. To the point- The first time I ever saw Cliff Curtis at all, was in the latest Die Hard. He pops out of nowhere, and yet had this instant "it" factor about him. Never heard of him, or saw him again. Then I noticed during the new ads for "Trauma", that he would be part of the cast. So, that is why, even though I love "Lie To Me", something told me to check this show, and BOY, I'm glad I did! "Rabbit" makes the show, in my opinion, but I also found myself feeling the pains and emotions of all the actors. It started out with a bang, and left me in awe. "Trauma" has realistic dramatic situations, as well as sex, comedy, REAL pain (emotional), "edge of your seat" wows all around, and compassion. I see this show going very far, and I CANNOT WAIT until next week's episode! (Kudos to the female actors- they were superb!). Good luck NBC- so far you've won me over with "Trauma", AND "Mercy". Looks like this Fall will be a lot more entertaining than the last few. (Don't forget: We also have great new shows from CBS, ABC, and FOX- so here's HAPPY WATCHING!! P.S. For those of you that may think this is just another "medical drama", you're wrong. It's all about original ideas, as well as the cast as a whole- give it a shot! Thank You- Darkdragon8987

The most juicy, action-packed and sexy show without even one vamp.. At all. Peter Berg, the executive Producer was on Chicago Hope for years for crying out. He has directed so many great movies and shows. He knows like the crew what works visually. And to put messy characters together and make it work is great television to me. It is like all other shows. Either you like it or you don't. No one ever said anything about vampire stuff being realistic so why would anyone make Trauma a target? Finally when it comes down to it. It's fictional entertainment. That's it. Anyhow! In a whole other way.. I think it's great to watch something that isn't about rich doctors or dirty cops or other questionable figures. But basic people with basic problems solving them in basic ways. Shows that works aren't the setting but the human relationships.

I really love this new show -- its has great characters and story lines. NBC should keep this show, because it gets better each week. I like that we are learning more about the depth of the characters, which is important. It could be another ER or Third Watch which were also spectacular shows..This show could run for along time because there are so many stories that could be told. I like how doesn't focus on just one character, but explores all their backgrounds. The fast pace of the show is what I love so much as well. We don't have shows like that since ER and Third Watch are no longer on. They have chose excellent actors to play the roles and they are doing such a good job.
