Here’s another show I decided to start watching based solely on the titular star, Edie Falco, whose stint on HBO’s The Sopranos left me spellbound.
When it first started I told myself, here is an excellent actress who’s about to star in a new comedy show about a nurse who’s addicted to pain medication. How can I not watch it?!!
Three seasons later, the show has turned into an early summer guilty pleasure with a great cast that’s a delight to watch (my favorite characters are Jackie, Dr. O’Hara, Zoey, and Gloria Akalitus) and scripts that crackle with humor and depth.
An unexpected cliffhanger in the closing scene made my jaw drop and capped season 3, which ended last week, so now it’ll be a year before we get to see any new episodes, but the show is worth the wait.
Grade – Season 3: 8
