    It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

    The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

    OK, most of you who know how to do CPR realize that almost no TV show accurately shows how to do it correctly, and Trauma is no exception. What do people expect, if you do it correctly on the people in the show you could injure them if they don't need CPR! Honestly you shouldn't be trying to learn medicine from a TV drama. I don't understand what all the negative comments are about. Many of the procedures are being shown done wrong. BUT I STILL LOVE THE SHOW. WHY? It keeps me interested. The injured patients do accurately represent SOME of what I see.In my opinion the character "Rabbit" makes the show awesome, his mannerism and sense of humor is great. (Plus he was driving a 1970 Chevelle SS in the last episode, which makes him even more awesome) The quarrels between characters and the storyline keeps me entertained. I'm hooked on the show and can't get enough of it.The writers do need to work on showing them how to do procedures a little more correctly and make it more realistic in the medical perspective but it is still a good show. Just don't expect that you will have EMT qualifications after watching this show.

    I love this show; Anastasia Griffith is beautiful and plays smart well, I am a fan of Cliff Curtis, and I have sort of missed Jamey Sheridan since Deakins retired on "L&O: Criminal Intent".But it bugs me that lacks the intensely researched hospital setting of "Scrubs", the procedural accuracy of the police investigations on "Starsky and Hutch" Or the gritty and hardcore legal milieu of "Ally McBeal".As others have pointed out, story and characterization generally should get priority over nailing every little detail of setting.Not every show or movie can go on location or afford to research all relevant social aspects like "Star Wars".

    Well i am a big fan of medical TV Series, i watched 9 seasons of E.R. which is still one of my favorites because it's the most realistic one i know. I watched all of House's Episodes because the characters are very well played and it doesn't matter that the medical plot isn't always as accurate, at least the procedures are done right. I watched Nip Tuck, because the first season, the make-up&masks in the surgeries were totally awesome, the character story was funny too, sadly the good medical side has gone worse, i don't think i can watch this any longer. And then there are my 2 soaps "Greys and Private Practice", GA started very nice, but then became worse since season 3, it wasn't all that accurate from the beginning, but it became worse, in addition the characters made such incomprehensible moves, that makes you think you're in a satire, the only reason i still watch is, because the soundtrack still is great and when i face medical clichés in my patient i know where they get it from. PP doesn't run this long and has a greater focus on the characters and ethical dilemmas, which is good because then you can't mess up the medicine like in GA.So except from House i wanted a new series with good cases, good characters and Emergency Medicine, i was psyched to see this.But i can say EVERY second was bad, i don't know where to start, let's make a list: Medical procedures? CPR with one hand because it looks cool? No it doesn't, administering the wrong medicine, why? - Sex in an ambulance? Yes, but not on duty! - Beer on duty, WTF? - Every character gets introduced, 2 helicopter crash (i thought the pilot was such an awesome dude ...) and there are survivors? Are you kidding me?These shows are supposed to show Medical PROFESSIONALS, at least they try to tell you this, but all you see are pretty people who don't know their head from their ass. I really don't know why they have take every realism out of this series, emergency medicine is a rush, you don't need to push it up with ridiculous plots, actions. Realism makes medical series better, not worse. I don't know why writers don't get that.Let's hope for the next medical show :)

    If there's any indication that the fall TV season is shaping up to be something really good then "Trauma" is another candidate for another hit that gives the proceedings loads of gravitas and energy. With ER off the airways and other themed shows vying for our viewing pleasure such as Grey's Anatomy and Private Practice, Trauma takes a different approach as the rescuers are out in the field rather than the emergency room saving lives while also trying to deal with issues in their personal lives at home or when their on the job.Sure, there's some nitpicks I have with the show. The first being is that there's only snippets of character development but the show is fast paced and thrilling with a jaw-dropping opening that will leave you on the edge of your seat. But there's also humor and charm that works really well within the shows atmosphere and little by little you'll grow to like the characters even more.Even with Grey's Anatomy and other similar shows out there, "Trauma" mixes action with humor, charm, and suspense with likable characters and great storytelling. And it's produced by Peter Berg, the man who gave us Hancock, giving it a gritty edge that's hog wild in the world that they created.
