Go Canada! Binged watched all the shows in 2 days. No shortage of effort to create a well equipped and staffed ER. Lead character and back story has great depth.

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.

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!

As someone from medical field, this is a pretty good medical drama with a different premise than so many others. A Syrian immigrant who was a trauma surgeon in his home Country now working at a Canadian hospital.. i have watched 6 episodes till date and it's all good.

Halfway through and loving the dynamic roles and storyline's. I am excited to see the potential directions writers will be going in Season Two and the positive dialogue this show will generate within the industry and for audiences. Well done, Canada!

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!!!!

{Initial Impression} An excellent, quality production. Fine performances. Great writing, with real heart-pounding action. Not only is it a Canadian 🇨🇦 production, but it is set in Canada 🇨🇦 - the first is not unusual, the second is, yet I see a rise in the confidence that good productions, once proven, will be picked up by American and even International broadcasters, which will allow our productions to earn their keep. Based on this premiere, I give this series an 8 (great) out of 10. {Medical Drama}

Good beginning, however are there no nurses working in this hospital? One thing that often puts people in healthcare off from watching these shows is that the doctors in them do all the work.

I had it dvr'd and finally started watching. What a great show. I can't stop watching. This is real drama without having to deal with everyone sleeping with each other. Shows the trials and tribulations of living as a refugee. Shows the drama of an emergency room along with some personal issues. You find out the reasons patients are there more than just an injury. This is just a fresh look and a lot of good drama.

When this series started, apprehension existed about the possible contents being political or biased in one way or another. Fortunately those fears were unfounded and the series developed into good and emotional stories which touch one's heart.

Difficulty must have been considered putting this series on the air, but rest assured that viewers watching it must be very pleased about their choice. It's a great watch!

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.

So far so good. Not your typical Hospital TV show, in fact, it's uniqueness and stellar performances by Hamza Haq and John Hannah kept me captivated.

I did however feel there was "too much" focus on racism - an not the real struggle, and I hope that fades away as the main focus of the show. There were some obvious plot and technical issues - why wouldn't he say he's looking for his sister to the cop from the start? What's up with Ayisha Issa's characters crappy attitude? Thus I hope the melodrama also gets toned down a bit by the writers so this show doesn't end up like another Grey's Anatomy or General Hospital.

The directing, cinematography and score were spot-on in creating and maintaining the tension. Casting was also great with convincible characters - unlike Saving Hope where some doctors looked 16 years old.

I'm certainly hooked to see where this show goes next, but as of now, it's a well deserved 8/10 from me.

EDIT 4/29/20: I've lost interest. Bashir's sister looks more like his daughter. The accents are clearly fake, unconvincing and annoying. The icing on the cake is still the annoying Ayisha Issa's acting or character, or both - I still can't tell. She has the angriest look and worst bedside manner I've seen from and doctors show. She is unconvincing as a doctor. Alcoholics can have a drink every time she smiles - they'll still be sober. The writing is getting less exciting and barely interesting. From 8/10 down to 6/10. Wont be watching any more episodes.

Halfway through the pilot, and the thing I notice most is the magnification of racial stereotypes - which gets on my nerves.

• The bully white cop

• The good Middle Eastern man who is mistaken for a terrorist

• The cute while female doctor who is smarter than she is given credit.

bla bla bla

The story line has potential. I just hope they don't ruin it with the racial biases.

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.

INCREDIBLE! Hospital scenes, personnel, patients and people that LOOK LIKE THE REAL DEAL!! Pay no attention to whiners, Folks. Series is refreshing with fab actors some of the audience may not be familiar with. These professionals enact each scene's story-lines to perfection for those seeking new perspectives in TV drama. Brilliantly crafted for North American audiences. Enjoy!!!

If you like medicine than you must watch this TV series. Its all about the doctors servicing their patients, with great interactions between the cast. At the same time it focuses on the Syrian doctor, who has a younger sister living with him. It does not offshoot into long side stories, but does go back to Syria. If you follow medicine in the USA you will notice the difference in Canadian medicine where the patient is more important than profit is in the USA. Great cast and storyline.

Exceptional pilot episode (would have been infinitely better without token racist cop) but through six episodes, it is clear Hamza Haq far exceeds his fellow castmates. The "extras" (weekly overly dramatic patients) are just bad actors but the regulars have had some pretty sketchy performances. Hope we get to see Mr. Haq again soon in a better series.

First, I'll start with the the annoying blatant copying of medical issues from Grey's Anatomy... I mean, in a creepy way. But, I prefer this show A LOT. And that's saying a lot.

The casting is better, more realistic choices of actors for the characters. The actors are also more realistic, more believable.

I appreciate that Transplant isn't laden with a constant whirlwind of romance, but just the right (small) amount. It doesn't outweigh the overall premise of the show being about medical situations, stresses with treatment, and the rounded lives of patients and medical staff.

When relationship topics are scripted, they are exceptionally realistic; a husband struggling to see his family enough while working too much, there are two employee pairings- kind of, but they don't run around the hospital having sex in corners like other shows.

What I like most is the main protagonist being a Syrian man who was a doctor in his country but struggled to get a job in Canada. Obviously he receives a medical job in Canada. There are SO MANY immigrants that I've met who have told me that they work in "such a such" field where they are from but their educational credentials aren't recognized in Canada. From brain surgeons to hair dressers and everything in between. It's a real problem, and I appreciate someone bringing this to light, even if it is just a TV show.

I checked the background of all the actors, and nearly everyone is Canadian. Too often I've checked a "Canadian film" actor's backgrounds and not only is 99.9% of them not Canadian, but they are usually produced predominantly (or completely) outside of Canada.

This film IS a true Canadian film, and a lovely representation of.

I respect what you're doing but it seems a little bit cheesy and please and punch back situation is lame And Arabic is not spoken like that let alone the Syrian accent

Very exciting premier! Lots of action and drama, well acted. It's interesting the Syrian refugee aspect. Uncovering over time the particular jealousy, racism on the part of the competitive medical structure, distrust on that part of refugees from an incredibly unsafe oppressive background and regime, and how that leaves people will be interesting. The premier was good enough that I'll see where it goes. I liked the actors, the production was great. I like seeing Claire from Stargate Atlantis days have a good role here. I like John Hannah too. The lead actor was really good, conveying lots without a word. I hope it doesn't descend into another medical drama. We don't need the edge of the premier over and over either, but it was a really top notch beginning. I like the timliness of it. I don't think we have a good understanding of what's been going on in Syria and the US's hand in it, especially our abandonment and destruction of the balance of power we brought to yet another regime bent on destroying what threatens it's omnipotence. The human cost is very real. I could feel it in his desperation to get out to his person even while wounded and his fear of government authorities. I really enjoyed not knowing what he had wrapped up, what was driving him to get out even while at cross currents trying to help everyone. Here's hoping it remains compelling.

The show is good and the actor is talented, but it's like bringing a white actor trying to convince the viewers he's Chinese . At least use a Syrian, Lebanese, Jordanian, or even Turkish or Greek actor, that would've looked more realistic.

The producers of this show need to pay attention to the fact that the background music (tones) are so loud that you can't hear the dialogue. It is extremely irritating. The sound mixer needs to be fired. If they don't fix this, I won't watch again. Too bad. It looks like an OK series!

The uniqueness in the writing is good. Hope Transplant goes on for many more seasons.

Bashir's future & past is interesting and his medical career is even more fascinating.

So far so good.

Such a good show. Does not deserve to be canceled, when other medical dramas, like Grey's Anatomy, which once had the same quality as Transplant and Code Black, to name a few medical dramas that were canceled too soon, continues on forever and ever with a mediocre cast and writing. I am going to miss Transplant and the amazing characters that were developed over the course of four seasons. Can we still petition the network to bring it back? I know it was originally written, shot, and aired on Canadian television, but the Canadian's did TV right when they created this show. Bring back Transplant!
