Oh, my God! This is so bad! I just can't keep on watching it. Paula Trickey (as the desperate mother) has been looking out of her head astonished exactly the same way for half an hour already, without even moving a single face muscle in a different way.. Besides, it is obvious that the kid in the little girl's role (Alexia Fast) has never ever been seriously frightened in her life so far.. Above all, the benignant black therapist appears.. I can't believe that movies like this are still made. I can't believe that there are still so many austere viewers around the world who last out such producers and filmmakers. Boo! - I'll switch this thing off, immediately!!!

Medicina Generale is a far more lovable and real-life-like hospital series than those American ones we are used to by watching ER or Grey's Anatomy. It is about the everyday life of an Italian Hospital, people who work there and patients who happen to get there. We also see interesting medical treatments and several problems of doctors' and nurses' private life. The characters are not as exaggerated and unreal as we see that in American hospital series. However, Medicina Generale still cannot be as enjoyable as the great Czechoslovakian "Nemocnice...". I am looking forward to seeing new episodes, since it's been the best hospital series I see in a long while.

"Nemocnice..." is an intelligently written classic Czechoslovakian TV-series about everyday conflicts and professional issues in a small-town Czech clinic. Family affairs and several love stories of doctors and nurses are perfectly developed and no spectacular action scenes are necessary to attract viewers' attention. Many tried to copy different elements of this series later on to be successful, but I strongly believe that no other hospital series (like Schwarzwald Klinik or ER) has beaten this masterpiece so far... Today's hospital series are full of exaggerated characters and attitudinized effects while they all lack the intelligent screenplay and the actual plot which was all the way present in case of "Nemocnice...".
