I love people movies and this was a people movie. No murders. No investigations. No aliens. No monsters. Movies like this are tougher to write. It didn't even have an antagonist. I'm clapping.
This movie makes you look at relationships, purpose, death, and legacy. The only negative is that that backdrop is the overused NYC. Aren't there other cities in the US?
Elizabeth, the mom, played by Connie Britton, has a recurring bout with cancer and this time it's terminal. She has a special connection with one of her three adult children, the lone daughter, Alex.
Elizabeth leaves a bucket list behind through multiple DVDs given to her, young, attractive, male lawyer. As Alex lops off mom's list, she gets a new DVD with a different task. Some are destination, mending relationships, others are accomplishment driven. As she takes on the tasks, other situations occur. One is predictable, but that's okay.
The last item, was the hardest to accomplish despite it seemingly right in front of her on multiple fronts. It's the most sought by all.
Sofia Carson was perfect for the role. Alex was torn throughout the turns and twists. I loved the ending because it didn't land where too many movies take us - the Disney effect. Well done.

I'm only 23 minutes into the first episode. My first thought was that I'm lucky to only wait about 30 minutes when I had to go to the ER in my area.
Just like Scrubs, which had the backdrop of Los Angeles, this Pittsburgh hospital has the same crazy waits (up to 9 hours), which I hope is amped up for TV.
Not only fast paced but also intense. Because it's a premium channel show, we get more of ER reality so there might be turn your head moments for some viewers. Well written and acted through and through. No need to single anyone out because they're all good.
I was feeling a little vulnerable. The show has me realizing I need to take better care of myself.
Like Scrubs, there's the administrator, also with no sense of humor, like Dr. Kelso. She too is public enemy #1 for Dr. Robinavitch (Noah Wyle), the head doc of the Pitt/ER because her job focuses on the financial part of the hospital. This must be a common theme in every hospital because every hospital show brings this to the forefront in pretty much the same manner.
One obvious, but understandable flaw is the doctors aren't big on masks like in an actual hospital. Naturally, this is done so we can hear and see the actors. It does take a bit of an open mind to keep in order to avoid yelling at the screen.
There are enough personalities to keep this fresh for a long time. Everything that happened in episode one stayed within the ER. It'll be interesting to see how much, if anything, will go outside of hospital.

I watched with a grin on my face the entire time. This movie captured the 1950/60s so well it had me feeling nostalgic and envious. From the way the characters sounded and behaved, it was well done.
Who knew there was a competitive battle between Kellogg's and Post over a snack item - Pop Tart vs Country Squares?
Some satire for sure. This movie may not have thrived in being a documentary piece through and through, but it captured the right notes to show the audience what the times and cereal business were like for these cereal titans sharing the same town.
I wasn't looking for, nor expecting, Ford versus Ferrari. I wanted light hearted and pleasant and this movie delivered. It had a Willy Wonka appeal.
Great cast. No one took themselves too seriously to accept smaller roles. Seinfeld and Gaffigan were front and center most of the time and they delivered.
This movie had me yearning to live in times where even if things are competitive in business, people can still act civil. Whether true or not, people were happier and it made me happy watching it. A solid and clever family movie without being sappy. We done!
