Nurse Jackie
 

"Nurse Jackie is a half-hour dark comedy that is at turns wicked, heartbreaking and funny. Edie Falco stars as the title character Jackie Peyton, a strong-willed and brilliant -- but very flawed -- emergency room nurse in a complicated New York City hospital. A lapsed Catholic with an occasional weakness for Vicodin and Adderall to get her through the days, Jackie keeps the hospital balanced with her own kind of justice. Every day is a high wire act of juggling patients, doctors, fellow nurses and her own indiscretions."

Season 1 is currently being broadcast on BBC2, although I've already seen them all. Season 2 is set for March sometime. Fantastic show. Definitely very different from all the other hospital dramas, such as House and ER. Worth a watch if you can get yours hands on the whole of the first series. Edie Falco, who had one of the leading roles in The Sopranos, is one of the most diverse actresses, I'd say.

sounds interesting - what day/time is it on?

I think it's on every weekday. Not sure what time, but I assume pretty late. Of course, there's always iPlayer.

It's on Mondays at 10. I love this show it's brilliantly acted and done and I love how it can seamlessly switch between Comedy and Drama.

Didn't it used to be on every day for a week?

Yeah it's a great show. I just love Jackie's character.

The first week it did but now it's at that slot.

Yeah Jackie's a great character, I like O'Hara as well.
