Pre-pandemic I watched an excellent show called Lenox Hill.It was an 8 part docuseries. It stopped as everything became chaotic.

I see this week there's a follow on. At least I think it's a follow on. Called Emergency NYC. Looking forward to watching it and finding out what happened to a couple of the doctors who were in Lenox Hill and dealing with their own illnesses at the time. Similar set up by the look of it as a docuseries, on the go real life.

Forgot to mention. I watched that Succession. ugh. It drove me crazy. The nasty people and the stilted speech left me waiting for someone to say a word. The characters and their dialogues did my brain in. I read so many reviews how wonderful it all was, but I found it irritating, frankly.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll definitely try to get Lenox Hill and Emergency NYC.

Lately I've been watching an older series called The Indian Doctor. It's fiction but interesting, I think.

Also watching Cherif, a French detective drama. Not sure if I'll stick with it but I've been through one season.

I tried Succession for a few episodes but couldn't take it any more. I can't imagine why it was so popular. I agree with you that the main people were horrible--and boring.

I remember The Indian Doctor but not sure if I've seen it all.

The Hundred Foot Journey is another great one. I loved the concept. Comes from a book. I should read it if I can one day.

ps. I found the language in Succession and their demeanours towards other people almost like abuse. Yuk hated it.

Yes! Why spend time with people like that?

I thought i should just mention that the Emergency NYC show does show a lot of very graphic surgical procedures just in case you don't find it easy to watch surgery. The whole show however, like Lenox Hill, has a wonderfully compasionate undertone and the staff were very likeable.
