As a Rom-Com lover, I enjoyed Netflix’s latest medical drama Pulse, which features high stakes, ambition, and hurricanes. It has made me more interested in medical dramas. Although I haven’t watched Grey’s Anatomy, many people say it is similar.
The heart of the show is Dr. Danielle “Danny” Simms, Who is played by Willa Fitzgerald. Has a new role of chief resident after filling a sexual harassment complaint againist Dr. Xander
Phillips, ( Colin Woodell. Dr. Xander Phillips was the chief resident until the
sexual harassment happened. Dr. Danny Simms took over, no one knew the details of the
sexual harassment. All the flashbacks to this mystery leads to a shocking ending. This all took
place at a Miami hospital as they were preparing for a hurricane, when they started to struggle,
with all the drama and confusion.
A positive is Pulse maintains a careful pace, it rarely pauses to let characters or its audience
fully process each moment before the next plot twist. Each episode is a tight 45 minutes, neatly
balancing personal crises with high stakes medical emergencies. The show is a visual stunner,
from the rain drenching the trauma bays to the lit hospitals. It's clear Pulse wanted to feel
different even if people say it threads from a familiar ground.
There are some sparks especially for those who crave emotional messiness, like myself. The
desire to say something about medicine, power, identity, and redemption is shown in Pulse. As
the story unfolds, it made sure that the audience was still connected with the show.
The show had flaws but it also had a lot of pros. From a girl who hasn't watched medical drama,
it was shocking to see a bit of romantic sparks in a hospital setting.Viewers looking for sharp
social commentary may find it lacking. Pulse has promised a high medical and personal drama,
but also a stormy romance helped make it a strong performance overall.
