Trauma
 

anyone watching?

That the paramedic show? If so I am.

Yup...I like it so far.....

wow!!

1. the explosion just shook my house (maybe I better turn it down) and 2. an accident that just keeps getting worse...right!

Same. Though I'm wondering how that guy survived the helo crash. And I hope that the show isn't as special effects heavy as this episode is so far. Two massive explosions in 20 minutes? If that is the norm, that is a sign of bad writing.

ETA: I guess we crossed posted. Yeah I know what you mean. Something like that actually happening is very rare chances. For one thing getting gass to blow is really difficult.

Rabbit was prolly one of those lucky guys whose going thru inner demons or sumn...

It seems to be getting kinda cliched as it goes on.

a lil...

this is the 21st century's answer to Emergency from back in the 70s

wtf? He didn't even have a spare pair of gloves to give mom to wear while she was sticking her finger in her son's neck?

hey hey hey he didnt have that kinda time...

wait the paras hitting on a patient?

Wow....

BTW..what is it with every show playing 3 or 4 pop songs per episode now?

lol. The latina looks familiar but I can't place it. And I think this is going to turn into the kind of show that I will watch if on, otherwise screw it.

ETA: Yeah I saw that, but I figured it was something like that from the reaction his wife had. And don't forget the two medics screwing each other in the back of the bus. This show is horribly unrealistic.

Oh I dunno....I have 2 paras as friends...I will be calling in the morning...LOL

I'm not watching the show but did you see the news article today about the van that was transporting a beehive and it got in a bad accident and then the bees swarmed and attacked the injured and rescue personnel?

That would be an accident that just keeps getting worse.

wow....what a way to lose a finger

I'm really disliking Rabbit. And is it just me, or shouldn't there be at least a bit more blood?

with the finger?

Didnt hit an artery.

I actually like Rabbit....he's the tragic anti hero that you hate to love...HHAHAHA

I just realized where I saw the girl. George Lopez show. And is teh doctoir the guy from Law and Order Criminal Intent?

I think so...ok...this epi gets a 7.5

The guy who plays Rabbit is Maori...and has played everything from latino to Arab

I didn't watch the show, but if I had thought about it, any temptation I had would've been killed by the annoying, long, melodramatic radio ads that have been playing on one of the stations here in Seattle. It reminded me of how stupid and waaaaaaay overdramatic the episodes of ER got when it was about 75% of the way through its run. That was ER's lowest point, and I really don't want to watch a whole series that's like that.

This show was ruined for me by my boyfriend (a paramedic) who made me watch just so he could point out all the things they did wrong.

Like the one handed CPR? That, in the very beginning, was what killed it for me. My husband, who is not even in the medical field was like, "I don't hear any rib bones cracking!"

Anybody watching today's?

yup

waiting for the cops is accurate.

yeah it is, especially for something like that. They don't have to, but it's common sense. I have a friend who is a tech and they have actually refused to respond to calls if they didn't get police support. And I know the resident. She's from NCIS. Played a doctor there as well.

ok....you dont put an inexperienced pilot on like that tho.....

I was wondering how long it would be before a MCI. I guess they need to have teh whole cast interact somehow.

He wouldn't have been allowed to leave with bodily fluids on the uni....hehehe

Also, am I the only who finds the idea of a person with a MD being a paramedic?

seen it happen....BUT.....why are we having a repeat of the angry person mad at the offender.

irony....

(finally watched Monday's epi BTW)

Dude's wife is trapped in a building by a mad gunman and she was thinking about possibly filing divorce papers....HEH!

Hahaha!!! This is why I'm afraid to watch it. I'd be like, "Seriously? Seriously?? Who doesn't use BSI on a trauma call? And how many triple A's can one guy get? Right....way to attach an AED bro!" LOL

I actually have EMT on Mondays and Wednesdays; so, I've not been able to catch the show at all. Maybe I can get an episode online?

.....Kelly :)

Ugh that was pretty gruesome.

I turned the channel.

Need a strong stomach for this one....eye gouging, shredded arms, impaling...my kinda show!!

I must have missed the eye gouging some how.

2 Asian ladies towards the end of the show...

Anybody else still watching this?
