Skymed

I went into watching this fully expecting things would be woefully inaccurate (Same with arctic air but I still enjoyed that), and I was not disproved. Anyone in the aviation or medical community can point out numerous things in the trailer alone. SOPs on the aviation side are definitely off and the medic side are definitely not right either.

That being said, if I just laugh at those things and ignore some of the forced relationships then I actually enjoy the show for the friendships, amusement, and character development.

The nurses are full fledged nurses not budding as the description here says.

The medical procedures are far from accurate- you can't give an IM injection through a down jacket and three layers of clothes. Most nurses don't say HR for heart rate. HR is where you go when you're being written up.

The first half of the first season was good. Started to go downhill with more episodes.

The scenery is spectacular looking as are most of the cast members.

However this show would have you believe that 80% of the population is gay. And 95% of people cheat. There are more scenes of romance than there are scenes of medivacs.

All in all not a bad show but it's no ER or St. Elsewhere or even Grey's Anatomy.

The medical/professional situations they dealt with could have made this an interesting show but it was more like some cheesy "reality" show where a bunch of horny drunk kids are having sex with anyone and everyone. Young, professional adults do not act like this in the real world. Poor acting, poor writing, overall a disappointing show to attempt to watch. It was difficult to maintain focus on any particular episode, can't imagine a situation where I would ever choose to watch this again. This show wasn't worth 600 characters but it's required so I'll fill the holes the same as the writers. Sex.. Sex.. More sex.

I was very excited to watch the first few episodes and see the northern landscape and an attempt at showing the remoteness and isolation. The romantic melodramatic interludes aren't interesting. I find it odd that all the cast are young and confused yet heroic. Only one character, an Uncle is over 30 but we don't meet him until episode 5. I like how the show nightlight problems and issues in communities. I feel the the writers have run out of things to happen so they create mini romance interludes and these are not interesting. I enjoyed the episodes where they dealt with a crisis and helped out. I like hearing native languages spoken. I don't think the writers know whether to make this a northern Bay Watch or an adventure show.

There is an Australian series called Royal Flying Doctor Service. Same premises, but the Australian is so much better. If I were you I'd skip this one and watch Royal Flying Doctor Service instead.
