It hasn't necessarily been grabbing the headlines in the same way that Apple TV+'s excellent Severance has in recent weeks, so it's possible that you missed the fact that HBO has an excellent new medical drama that's been picking up plenty of fans and good reviews – The Pitt. It's set in real-time, a bit like 24 was, and is seemingly both very stressful and extremely authentic.
So, it's more than a little striking that Netflix just dropped a trailer for its own new medical show, Pulse, which looks like it's aiming for a very similar set of attributes, albeit with a little more polish and sheen rather than unrelenting realism. The trailer sets out its stall impressively, and should reel in fans of shows like ER and Grey's Anatomy.
