In a Heartbeat

This show has a good story line, but is a bit realistic in some aspects. For example, technically, an EMT-B, which Disney characterized these characters as being, cannot administer medication, defibrillation (clear...shocking!), or other items that they do on the show. Despite that, which really isn't important, this show is entertaining, funny, and even in its own way, informative. In my opinion, the general age group that will enjoy the program at its best is 12 to 17, but don't go by me, check it out for yourself anyway! Its a good show, with a good "helping people and promoting international goodwill" story line.

I was trying to figure out why Disney cancelled this show. At first I thought maybe they didn't want anymore Canadian produced shows.(No offense Canada. I love Montreal.) But that didn't make sense. Ratings? Yeah like that's a factor. If Disney cancelled shows based on ratings Dave the Barbarian would be gone by now along with Lizzie McGuire. So I thought and thought. Then it hit me. This show is a drama. All the shows they have now are comedies. So maybe they didn't want to loose there target audience with Dawson's Creek type stuff(I know there are better dramas than DC but I'm just trying to make a point). Let's face it. Disney's programming has gone down hill. After Jett Jackson and So Weird left, that was it. All the shows are crappy. Even the Proud Family is loosing luster. Disney made a BIG mistake in cancelling this show. At least this one had realism. They need better programming.

So you have The Disney Channel with a lot of their shows that lack something. Well In a Heartbeat is not that way it has a charm to it. This is a show about substance and quality. This is a show that could wind up on the WB Network it is that good. Now Shawn Ashmore spent time on the Nickelodeon show Animorphs which was a good offering that didn't last at Nick. All I can say is give In a heartbeat a chance with the sugar speckled theme song to the way it travels with the characters you'll see why this show is worth your time and mine.

Why did you have to cancel such a great show?! All they show on Disney are the same thing. All of their shows relate to comedy and its all the same. In a Heartbeat had originality, but no Disney was probably too scared that a kid may see a little blood. This was one of my favorite shows and I can't suggest that you check it out because Disney stopped showing the reruns, which is a shame. Its a shame Disney is not ready to handle a drama series and until then you will get the same old children comedy.

Sometimes I love you Disney other times you just screw up.

This, in my opinion, is thebest show on Disney! It has an interesting setting and characters who's lives you can get interested in. All of the actors do a good job. Even though it is mostly a drama, it also has some comic relief. I don't think this show would interest adults or kids, mainly only teenagers will like it. If you want to see a show with interesting plots and some good looking people, this is a good one to pick.
