TV show description:
This gritty medical drama revolves around an Emergency Room in Los Angeles where underfunding and understaffing pile huge pressure on its staff. A “code black” is issued when the ER no longer has the manpower, capacity or equipment to operate effectively.
Doctor Leanne Rorish (Marcia Gay Harden) is the ER Residency Director. She’s a brilliant doctor and an experienced professional who often has to resort to her intuition as opposed to standard medical procedures in order to save lives. She reminds her staff that life is measured in split seconds and a moment of hesitation can be the difference between life and death.
On the flip side to Leanne’s risk-taking is Doctor Neal Hudson (Raza Jaffrey) who is constantly at odds with her cavalier attitude.
Leanne’s confidante is Senior Nurse Jesse Salander (Luis Guzman) who’s seen it all at the country’s most notorious ER. His job is to manage the residents. Like the other technicians, doctors and nurses, he is facing a daily battle to save lives under immense pressure.
Mario Savetti (Benjamin Hollingsworth), Christa Lorenson (Bonnie Somerville), Angus Leighton (Harry Ford) and Malaya Pineda (Melanie Chandra) are all first-year residents coming to terms with the harsh realities of their chosen profession.
Episode #47 — Business of Saving Lives
Angels Memorial descends into chaos when a plane crashes into the eighth floor. Also, it is up to Mario to save Noa’s life when she has a car accident. In addition, Willis admits to Rox that he needs her in his life, and the doctors gather in court to support Leanne for her custody hearing.
First aired: July 18. 2018.
What do you think? Do you like the Code Black TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for season four on CBS?
Why is it the good shows always get taken off TV, this was the only Medical Drama I watched. Should not have been cancelled. Please bring it back or hopefully another network will pick it up.
Please renew this show. Its actors are the best and
Please renew this show! I loved it. I am so disappointed it was cancelled. The actors are great, every episode is great. Please bring it back!!!!
Code Black is the best hospital drama on TV. The chaos keeps me on the edge of my seat. It is a fast, moving drama with simple family values and real endings, some good and some bad. This show needs another season to grow.
This was a really great show. Were the ratings not that good? How can we get this back?
This show is fabulous. Every single episode. It’s incomprehensible how you people can even consider cancelling this wonderful show. I cry after just about every episode. I won’t be watching ANY programs on this network if you can’t see that this show is one of the best on tv…….
It’s a total waste of time to watch any series on TV; as soon as you decide one is worth following, the network will cancel it. This has happened with so many series that I am totally disillusioned.
why do all the good shows get cancelled
My 18 year old daughter and I love to watch this show together! We haven’t missed an episode. We’re so sad to see it go!
Keep this show! Someone should pick up this great show! Bring it back please!
I love this show. It never disappoints. But networks continue to. I hope that this isn’t final.
Please bring back Code Black! Every episode is filled with drama, humor, and human interaction! Please bring it back, Code Black has a very loyal following!
WHY????? CBS is starting to become like FOX always canceling the great shows! I really enjoy watching this show and I think CBS has messed up big time by canceling.. Please bring it back..
Absolutely renew.
Please bring back cold black. Tv show. It is very. Good.
I really enjoy Code Black. Currently it is the only tv show I watch weekly. Please bring Code Black back and bring it back for good! It is an outstanding tv show with a great cast.
