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?
Definetely renewed
Don’t cancel Code Black! It is one of the best medical i’ve Ever watched and the acting and storylines are great.
Don’t cancel Code Black! I am a medic that see’s this type of story line everyday for real. Code Black has true to life rescues and life saving event that really happen in big trauma centers. This is far better reality than the Bachalor or some other fake show. Not all hospitals focus on who’s sleeping with who like Grey’s.
This is a great dramatic show, well acted, scripted and engrossing. Please reconsider CBS,
Love Code Black. Great cast, stories! Why are you cancelling Code Black? Run Code Black in the Fall, I’m sure the viewership will be greater. Don’t cancel!

I look forward to Wednesday to watch Code Black. Really love this show and it needs to stay on the air. Every time a good show comes on it is cancelled. Shame on you.
Code Black is one of the best medical dramas in a long time. I am tired of CBS cancelling all the shows I like and leaving the silly ones on !
audiences
I really enjoy Code Black. The actors are great. The storylines are interesting and compelling. Please do not cancel Code Black. Much better than Criminal Minds, which has become tedious and boring in the last few seasons.
