Meh..I didn't care for this week's episode and started flipping and watching a few things by the half hour mark.

I hate the divorce, I guess now reconciliation watch - I just can't get into that doctor's marital problems or care about his kids. I wish he'd take a back seat and let a couple of other Drs get the airtime.

Dr Bethea is at University of Texas Southwestern now And still with his wife Darnit.

I'll take Dr Avo though...Yums.

Loved Earl - the fact they couldn't find him after his transplant, and that he had to get his hair braided before his surgery

This might sound crazy but I found the old guy thatwanted to donate his body to science kind of hot.

So Dr. Brian Bethea made it work with wifey. Shit outta luck with him now Undertakeress.

That heart transplant dude pisses me off. Wants to be a porno king? And what does he do as soon as he's up from a major event in his life? Comment on how much he wants to procreate. What a stereotypical male douchbag. Wants to drop babies all over town & probably not have a thing to do with them...

I thought I was the only one who felt that way :) But somehow ventilator suctioning didn't bother me too much. Makes no sense.

Ugh, me no good around the Code Browns, Fluffy, but I guess I'll get used to it.

Why don't you like the sputum specimens, Fluffy? Eh, suctioning trachs....blech...

Guess I better get used to all this though, right?

Those lungs were a thing of beauty. Wonderfully healthy.

I missed the chest tuby doc's name too. Hopefully he'll be featured more since se got to see him moving in to the new apartment with the girlfriend or wife.

I missed his name - my tape started about a minute too late. Is he a brand new resident?

I think they're really editing Dr. Bethea and his divorce really weird. He's probably out with his buddies blowing off steam, and his buddies are egging him on about finding a hot nurse, and alcohol certainly didn't help. But the guy's got a stressful job and with a crumbling marriage, can't say I blame them. But who knows what the true story is.

Loved them showing...

Anyone watch tonight's show???? It was good

Yeah, I've been watching this, since it focuses on the giant hospital complex located within a couple miles of my house.

Unfortunately I missed the name of the young black doctor. Anybody recall? If so, t.ia. (My loud-ass window AC requires me to use closed-captioning in the evening, and the captions...

I'm not sure but I thought I read somewhere that they were at the hospital 24/7 for about 4 months filming. Then they went back for any follow-ups.

Over how long were this group of Doctors followed for this show? I don't recall the Urologist being pregnant in the 1st ep and last night she looked ready to pop and at the end they did that one year later update on the woman who received the transplant.

I must say..don't watch this show and eat food or just have eaten food b/c if you are at all squeamish about blood and organs, etc.. it's not a good idea. I thought I was going to throw up when they did that kid's...
