    I really do look forward to Nurse Jackie!!! Only Friends and Battlestar Galactica & lost have ever had that effect on me. The Characters are so different, wierd, eccentric, troubled, complex and highly entertaining. Nurse Jackie is a show that will need to keep going. By the third season this show will be up there as one of the best. The mix of comedy & tragedy is absolutly spot on and they producers, directors and actors should be proud to create such a good show when there is sooo mucj rubbish out there. Well Done! Keep Up the god work!moreless

  • Love Nurse Jackie!

    I Am so happy Nurse Jackie got renewed It is the best show on showtime. No matter how people feel about the show and the sometime ludicrous story's the show exposes life as a drug addict. nurse Jackie depicts the life of desperate drug addict. and I do love the supporting cast. I wish they would add more of Dominic Fumusa character Kevin into each episode he is a superb actor and he anchors the show when the story's go off on a tangent. The biggest mistake the show made was adding Gbenga Akinnagbe who is the actor that plays Kelly he is one of the worst actors on TV and he really is bring the show down. Over all I Love Nurse Jackie And I Hope It Has Many More Seasons To Come!moreless

  • Usually quite compelling...

    Despite the occasional weak episode, and the main character's moral ineptitude, this show is quite compelling.

    The main character is deeply flawed, yet she had many good characteristics, which causes us to like her, while also judging her for her numerous flaws.

    In fact, it's those flaws that make this show so compelling - we're rooting for, as well as against her every show. But how she pulls things off is entertaining and clever. So, if you need an entertaining and compelling show to fill your show-list, watch a few episodes of this show to see if it fills your show needs.moreless

  • Good, but not exactly moral/honorable. Can be slow most of the time.

    Yes, she's strong and does what she believes is best for the patients. In some cases she bucks the system and goes around corners to make sure the patients get good care. But there was a case where she gave a brain dead man to the transplant team when she didn't have any indication that he was actually a donor. She's a drug user/abuser and cheating on her husband with a hospital worker (Eddie the pharmacist). The doctor (Cooper) with the grabby hands claiming it as a Torret's (not sure if I spelled that right) syndrome is ridiculous and someone like that would never be kept in a hospital in a doctor's position (or shouldn't) since that would constitute sexual assault and/or harassment.

    The plot just isn't exciting. The beginning episodes were good, but it just doesn't feel like it's going anywhere.

    I have high hopes the second season will improve. I will still watch it in hopes that it will get better.moreless
