Harrison's Interns

From the producers of Grey’s Anatomy comes a show about internal medicine residents. ABC’s official statement on the upcoming production reads, “Our nighttime television board got together after the last Mc-blank-y died in a tragic snowboarding accident and decided that after the successes of ER and Grey’s, we need to move on to the next and most common medical specialty and explore the intricacies of its drama.”

Here’s a review of the first season: Mary Harrison writes a poem on her blog the night before the first day of internship. She lays out her cloths and then goes over her ACLS cards out loud before falling asleep.

Gary starts out on night float. He watches the entire first season of Scrubs in the call room alone in the first week. Susan, a girl he likes because of her hipster glasses sprains her back and has to walk to the code blues instead of run.

Tina does a chart review retrospective study during her first month on elective. They go to a clam bake together and post pictures of themselves on Instagram even though they couldn’t think of what to talk about that day. Mary is frustrated she doesn’t have the energy to write a poem about the clams.

After the first two months of trying to be social, they all sleep on their days off. Mary and Tina break up with their boyfriends who don’t get why they’re always sleeping.

Susan spends time with her 3 and 6 year old kids and her golden doodle. They go to a pumpkin patch in October. Meanwhile in the hospital, Terry, Sean and Larry complain about how rounds go until 3pm. Larry says he wouldn’t call a code if he walked in and his delirious full-code patient was dead.

Mary develops a hamster face from eating only stale graham crackers and peanut butter.

The season ends with a close up of the paper turkeys plastered on the walls of the nursing station. A taste of what’s to come. ABC is determined this one will be a success.
