Does anyone watch other medical shows besides Saving Hope? I watched a fair bit of ER growing up, and watch Grey's Anatomy every now and then.
Of course with so many ones you're going to get plot similarities and medical cases. I think it's impossible to be completely original when writing for a medical drama.
Watching Grey's Anatomy the past few weeks there's been a few moments when I immediately thought of SH. A few weeks ago one of the patients (doctor, even) got in a car accident and was talking to himself inside of his head (no ghosting though!) Tonight the docs did a heart procedure very similar to the one Charlie and Dawn did on Bonnie in Bed One. Made me look it up because the Grey's doctors said it was extremely experimental, while the Hope docs acted like it was nothing new. Turns out one procedure was called Suspended Animation while the other was Circulatory Arrest.
Of course ever since SH started I compare every medical show I happen to see with it, interesting to see the similarities and differences. Curious if anyone here watches other med shows and what they think.
