TV Shows: Trauma

Anyone catch this last night? Pretty intense for a premeir IMO, I don't expect it to keep that kind of pace, but it earned another week from me.

As a firefighter-EMT I have to say that this show is HORRID! Everyone works outside their scope of practice, fire is waaay under-represented, basic skills are ignored, ugh, it's just painful to watch. It wouldn't even make a good drinking game-if you took a drink every time someone did something wrong you'd end up meeting some real medics after 911 was called for you. :roll:

LOL! You sound like my wife with all the lawyer shows that are on. She's a Probation Officer for juveniles and is always harping on how innacurate the shows are.

I've still only seen the 1st ep of Trauma, time to get crackin with the On Demand.

That's one of the problems I have with these shows. But, lets be reasonable. If they showed what typically happens at a Fire House, Emergency Room, etc. it would be pretty boring. People tend not to watch boring things on TV.
