TV show description:
Set in Toronto, the Nurses medical drama series follows five young nurses who are working on the frontlines of a busy downtown hospital. They’re dedicating their lives to helping others while struggling to help themselves.
Grace Knight (Skovbye) is a young nurse looking for a fresh start — until someone from her past turns up who could jeopardize her career.
Ashley Collins (Calis) is a wild and unapologetic adrenaline junkie who lives for the fast pace of the hospital. There’s also a huge heart hidden behind her tough exterior.
Keon Colby (Johnson-Hinds) is a former college football star who’s trying to prove there’s more to him than what people saw on the field.
Nazneen Khan (Sidhu) is the whip-smart daughter of a wealthy family in India. She moved to Canada to reinvent herself and is now starting her first job.
Wolf Burke (MacLean Jr.) is kind-hearted and playful but he also has a secret that may find him in over his head.

What do you think? Do you like the Nurses TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a third season?
Love this show!!
I love nurses! Keep developing new episodes in interesting topics.
I love Nurses tv show!! It should not be canceled!!
Worse series ever!!!
I love this series.
Nurses have been portrayed poorly in other shows, but this show is appalling. There is nothing realistic in the way the writers illustrated both the work of patient care and the responsibilities and knowledge/ skills of nurses. Who in the name of all that’s holy is responsible for this disaster? At a time when the public is finally gaining an understanding of the vital role nurses play in healthcare, this pile of equine feces ( read horse ****) appears. Please have mercy on the public and profession and cancel this show. A nurse with 42 years of both civilian and… Read more »
This is the worst depiction of what real nurses are and what they do. As a retired nurse, I have been in many situations where there are successes in life and disappointments. I worked for 20 years in a hospital setting and NEVER saw the ridiculous situations that are presented in this show. This show is totally unrealistic and obviously no nurse was ever consulted on what happens in real life. In the harrowing days of our current pandemic where nurses are stretched beyond belief, you embarrass us with this nonsense. There are so many great stories that could be… Read more »
This program was totally ludicrous and literally unrealistic. It’s apparent that NO real nurses were consulted when writing the storyline. It’s a shame!!
Sad,that the year of the nurse had this show to finally put nurses in the spotlight for the amazing job we do. What a total embarrassment. Thank goodness we do a much better job taking care of our patients then NBC did producing this garbage. Please go back to the drawing board!
It was AWEFUL!
Insulting to Nurses, completely off base. Not 1 drop of reality and terrible acting.
I’ve been a Nurse for 20+ years and I’m horrified by this show, So much so that I am actually leaving a comment for the first time in my life.
TV Producers, Writers, Directors….. You had a golden opportunity, especially this year with the focus on nursing, to create a realistic, compassionate, intelligent show about ROCK STAR NURSES.
This fails miserably
This show is ludicrous. Do they even have a Nurse advisor? Who in the hell calls scrubs FATIGUES. Please cancel this show! Better yet hire a couple of real nurses to advise you!
This program is an insult to the Nursing profession and woefully inaccurate.
As a retired RN who loves medical shows, this was THE WORST medical “drama” I’ve seen. Who gets sent to care for a trauma patient without a mentor/preceptor? Why is the manager allowing this type of “leadership” to assign nurses with no training. I turned it off after 35 minutes because I have only so much life to live and this shouldn’t be part of it. If you actually hire a NURSE consultant, advertise that and perhaps I’ll try again. In THIS year of 2020, the Year of the Nurse, why would you make nurses look so dumb?
Loved the show who cares if unrealistic store lines great we need good uplifting for 2020 and Nurses dose just that good job NBC
OMG, what a joke. Completely ridiculous and unrealistic…in too many ways to count. Nurses are assigned to specific areas of a hospital, they don’t just go to the ER, ICU or labor and delivery and hang with patients. Don’t believe any of it.
LOVED the season opener. I was concerned that I would not have another med show to view with the season finale of Transplant. After watching Nurses this evening, I have found that show.
Thank you NBC!!….
