If you’re a fan of American dramas about first responders you’ll love Netflix’s latest show Pulse. Granted, the formula is not as strong as anything by Dick Wolf (Law & Orders, FBIs, the Chicago Med/Fire/PD franchise) - but it gets the job done.
The 10-episode series follows a group of residents in the trauma center of Miami’s busiest hospital as a hurricane hits the city. Adding to the stress and intensity of impending medical emergencies, the unit’s leadership undergoes a massive change. Dr. Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald), a self-doubting third-year junior doctor, is made Chief Resident when staff favourite Dr. Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell) is suspended on the grounds of sexual harassment.
