It's rare that I find something I actually want to read these days, but I used to read a lot of fanfic when I was younger and wrote a couple of papers on the topic when I was doing my MA thesis.

Those rats looked way too cute for the streets, they got them at a pet store.

Just watched episode 12. I knew what was coming, due to generally being active in internet TV spaces, but god drat. So relentless and powerful yet still found the space for several fantastic character moments (and Mel continuing to be the absolute best). This show is something else, jesus.

I am going to call my shot: Langdon will get the POV commute to start season 2.

Whitaker actor drove me nuts because I really recognised his anxious face but couldn’t place it. Looked on Wikipedia and realised he had a tiny two-secondish appearance in 1917, and I had seen that movie so many times I just couldn’t help but register his presence.

But it doesn't really matter what a show is like, you can *always* find some weirdo writing romantic/sexy fanfics about it. Or hurt/comfort fics.

So does the night shift not get any social workers or was Keira pulling a 24 hour shift?

Binged this in the last few days and I have to say, as someone who works in medical education (non-clinical), this show was an unexpected treat. So many scenes felt like mock-videos we'd actually use in a presentation: "What did the student do well in this patient encounter and what do they need to work on? Did you see how the attending gave them feedback; was that effective? Why not, what should the attending have done differently?" It feels like at least part of the show is written with the intention of getting clipped and included in med school and faculty development presentations for years.Ravenfood posted:Part of the reason that she is so frustrating to me is that she has no real self-reflection through the series. She makes a decision on her own that she probably shouldn't have (BiPAP on pneumothorax) without at least informing someone she did so. This causes direct harm to a patient. Does this in any way make her reconsider doing things differently? Not at all. She just keeps doing whatever she wants because she knows better than everyone else just like she knows that her intent with Javadi and Whitaker matters more than how they feel about it. This is the thing driving me crazy about Santos, she is a first year resident and when the senior resident tells you "Check with me before you make any decisions like this", you need to do that! Especially after you've already made a rash decision on your own before with bad results! To keep blowing off the senior residents' explicit instructions is unacceptable. Then later she's like "Langdon just is out to get me for these reasons" and no, it's because you're deliberately ignoring his instructions and endangering patients' lives! With zero introspection! Of course Langdon doesn't help the situation by blowing up at her and also getting caught stealing pills. Alas. Tender Bender fucked around with this message at 05:14 on Apr 18, 2025 |

Unfortunately, for all that Santos is a loose cannon Langdon was also out to get her. You can see him wielding similar defense strategies he tried earlier in the season in the final episode.

Open Source Idiom posted:Unfortunately, for all that Santos is a loose cannon Langdon was also out to get her. You can see him wielding similar defense strategies he tried earlier in the season in the final episode. Right, but she leaves out the part where she's deliberately ignoring his instructions and endangering patients' lives, repeatedly, after being corrected every time. It doesn't matter if she gets results (and importantly the first time she didn't! She nearly killed the patient), because she's too early in her career to make those calls. The fact that she thinks she knows enough is what makes that dangerous, because she doesn't. The first patient should have been a huge wakeup call but it wasn't. Langdon is lovely at communicating this and by the end of the season he is out to undermine her because he thinks she's on to him. But the core issues are there. He's not telling her to check in with him because he has it out for her. He's telling her that because she's a first year intern on her first day and she should not be making those calls without someone senior.

What I really like is that Dr. Legally Not Carter calls him out on his behavior and calmly explains that is not how we teach and why we do not do it that way.

Thing about Santos is that that type of sassy confidence and snark can work on a workplace, but you need to read the room first, and starting to sling nicknames and ridicule on the very first shift is not a great way to establish a good reputation.

The show is remarkably good about this stuff: sometimes a bit too rigidly, as the conversations can often feel like they are right out of a faculty development example script. But I don't mind, they clearly have some legit medical folks writing or consulting and it's cool.

If you implying that when a patient that almost died comes in, and then you try to treat for your first best guess and they almost die again, and then you try another treatment that also almost kills them, BUT then you notice something about the bra that your dean of medicine (who you don't normally see breasts like that on) is wearing that day and are inspired as to the real cure, is a bad way to practice medicine, then I don't want to know what the right way is.

My favorite subversion of that is To Live & Die in LA, where the agent ignoring his superiors telling him not to do something & going off on a reckless plan turns out to be a horrible idea as he’s not nearly as smart as he thinks he is and ends up dying unglamorously. Kickass soundtrack too.

She has an intellectual understanding of what "building rapport" is supposed to look like, like when she was asking the fentanyl girl about her hobbies right after she learned her classmate was brain dead, and Dr. Mohan had to pull Santos aside and say that was the wrong thing to say lol
