House

Yeah, I like that show a lot. My wonderful wife rented Season 3 today and I'm just starting the second disc.

The Standard Nurse Complaints:

1. They don't give nurses any credit...
- Yeah, it's true they give firefighters more medical competence than they do nurses, but that's standard procedure for TV. There are a ton of important team members in the hospital; it would be impossible to make characters for all of them.

2. The doctors do things they'd never do...
- I can just see a big shot doc running a patient through the CT scanner (or performing phlebotomy, etc.). Most of them don't even know how to use our IV pumps, but again it's probably a matter of getting as much time as possible with the main characters of the show.


Yeah, I'm a crybaby. Oh well. Nursing still has a long way to go. So does televison.

Anyway, I love this show and I will watch it in spite of my complaints!
