About the Show
Warning: Nurse Jackie is nothing like Mrs Brady; Ally McBeal; or a desperate housewife. She is as flawed as she is brilliant, strong and weak in equal parts, and makes as many bad choices as good. In short, Nurse Jackie is a big refreshing slap in the face and she's coming to TEN this September.
Nurse Jackie Peyton, played by Edie Falco, is a senior nurse working in the emergency room of New York's All Saints Hospital. In this frenzied environment, Jackie is the coolheaded decision maker that holds the department together, with just a little help from pilfered painkillers.
Juggling a grouchy administrator, a hot shot doctor and perky student nurse, Jackie sometimes has to break the rules to get the job done, and dish a little justice into the lives of her patients. As she explains to fresh-faced nurse Zoey:
“This job is wading through a shitstorm of people on the very worst day of their lives. And just so
you know, doctors are here to diagnose, not heal. We heal.”
But it's not only the patients getting Nurse Jackie's attention in the corridors of All Saints. Will this mother of two be able to handle a workplace love affair and a happy home life? Ring off… Ring on.
