Nurse Jackie2009
Never go down easy.
Every day is a matter of life and death in a hectic New York City hospital, but for Nurse Jackie that's the easiest part. Between chronic back pain that won't quit, and a personal life on the constant edge of collapse, it's going to take a white lie here, a bent rule there, and a handful of secret strategies to relieve the pain, and stay one step ahead of total disaster.

7 cataloguedOnce you get past the premiere, series are often a crapshoot. But Showtime made all 12 episodes available for preview, and through that run, the energy never flags and the performances get deeper and richer.
Fancy watching another show centered around a snarky cynical jaded character in a dramedy that leans into the comedy a touch more than the dramatic elements? Then this maybe a show you'd like. For me it wasn't. Well produced but inherently flawed IMO.
Jackie can be a dark show, and it's going to get darker. But there isn't an episode that doesn't leave you yearning to see the next. There also isn't a performance that doesn't work.
