    So good

    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

    The deper it gets the shallower it gets

    Another Jed Mercurio vehicle. Which means it will be chock full of action and superficial dialog and relationships. After 3 or 4 episodes you can expect more of the same. Lots of blood and gore, medical jargon chatter galore, patients with bodies but no personalities, and endless political goings on. Do we ever find out what happened between Alpha he and she...do we care?

    Most realistic surgery scenes

    Cannot believe yet another great series that's cancelled WHY!!!??? Lennie James shows what a versatile actor he is and extremely talented, this is a great realistic series about a trauma team who have the what they call the golden hour on the clock to stabilise the patient, as well as lots of realistic trauma scenes there is also a back story of a lost love and hospital politics. Such a great show and yes I've said it twice but I'm dropping the realistic bomb again , as an sfx artist I can appreciate the talent and work that went into the scenes . Highly recommend this

    Amazing show!! Highly recommend!

    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!!

    Nerve racking edge of seat brilliance

    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!
