Netflix’s new reality series Emergency NYC takes viewers inside the high-stakes world of several hospitals in America’s largest city. The show follows along as doctors, nurses, EMTs, and other medical professionals respond to medical emergencies across New York City. One of those doctors is David Langer, a neurosurgeon at Lenox Hill Hospital.

In the first episode of Emergency NYC, Dr. Langer operates on a 29-year-old opera singer who had a stroke at a wedding. It’s all in a day’s work for Langer, a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania medical school and one of the leading neurosurgeons in the U.S. For the past decade, he’s served as the chair of neurosurgery at Lenox Hill Hospital. But despite his many professional accomplishments, he’s far from a “detached surgeon,...

On June 24, 2020, Netflix released a special episode of “Lenox Hill.” With a pandemic still in its relative infancy, a doctor-focused doc series presented a 32-minute time capsule of Covid’s arrival in New York City. It’s far from the only show to document those frightening few weeks in its own way, but nearly three years later, “Lenox Hill” still feels like a definitive portrait of that moment in time.
“Lenox Hill” was both a perfect and an odd source for something so specific. On one hand, the show provided an intimate glimpse of life at Lenox Hill Hospital. Through an observational lens, directors/creators Ruthie Shatz and Adi Barash were able to present the highest-stakes environment as a day-to-day job in surgery wards and emergency triage centers. Yet one of the intriguing things about that original season is that it felt unmoored from time. The series wasn’t hyperfixated...

“Lenox Hill” followed the lives of four doctors in New York City, culminating with an episode at the start of the global Covid-19 pandemic.

UTA has signed award-winning filmmakers Adi Barash and Ruthie Shatz for representation in all areas.

In his review of the medical documentary series, which launched in June 2020, Variety’s Daniel D’Addario ranked the series among the best shows released in early 2020.
“What’s so striking about ‘Lenox Hill’ is the way it shows the excitement and the stress of the utterly quotidian.” D’Addario said, noting the show filmed eight of nine episodes before the Covid-19 pandemic, but launched during it. “It depicts a seemingly well-funded, competently staffed hospital in which the best of times are still grindingly tough, and introduces four characters whose...

At this point, we’re almost legally obligated to start off TV roundups with some variation on this idea that there’s a lot of TV out there, but it really is impossible to keep up with everything. And calling attention to it doesn’t make it any less true!
So, given that TV time is reaching astronomical heights in 2020, how does one find something to watch, let alone focus on just the best of the best? That’s where we come in.
Keeping track of the dizzying amount of television we’ve reviewed so far in 2020 is a task in and of itself, so we’ve tried to make it as easy as possible. Below, we’ve gathered each of our 2020 TV reviews, each with a season number and the network/service where the new episodes first aired for U.S. audiences. Hopefully, this will help you decide what...

“The nominees present an inspiring and urgent range of stories from around the globe,” said Simon Kilmurry, executive director of the IDA. “The broad range of subjects and approaches to storytelling underscores that documentary is our most exciting form of cultural expression, a vital art form and a crucial element of democratic dialogue.”

The IDA also said today that its 2020 ceremony is going virtual on January 21.
“The nominees present an inspiring and urgent range of stories from around the globe,” said Simon Kilmurry, executive director of the IDA. “The broad range of subjects and approaches to storytelling underscores that documentary is our most exciting form of cultural expression, a vital art form and a crucial element of democratic dialogue.”
Ten films are up for the marquee Best Feature award: Collective, Crip Camp (Netflix), Gunda (Neon), MLK/FBI (IFC Films), The Reason I Jump (Kino Lorber), Reunited, Softie, Time, The Truffle Hunters (Sony Pictures Classics) and Welcome to Chechnya (HBO).
The helmers of five of those films also are up for Best Director: Garrett Bradley (Time), Michael Dweck and Gregory Kershaw (The Truffle Hunters), Nicole Newnham and Jim LeBrecht (Crip Camp), Sam Pollard (MLK/FBI) and Jerry Rothwell (The Reason I Jump).
On the TV side, five programs will vie for Best Curated Series): ESPN’s 30 for 30, PBS’ American Experience, Thirteen Productions’ American Masters, Illinois Public Media’s Reel Midwest and PBS/World Channel’s Reel South.
The nominees for Best Episodic Series are Cheer (Netflix), Hip Hop: The Songs That Shook America (AMC), Last Chance U (Netflix), Seven Planets, One World (BBC America) and We’re Here (HBO).
Up for Best Multi-Part Documentary are Asian Americans (PBS), Atlanta’s Missing and Murdered (HBO), City So Real (National Geographic), Hillary (Hulu) and Lenox Hill (Netflix).
“This is a year that has been one of reflection, looking inwards, and living life differently than we have always known it to be,” said James Costa, co-chair of the Feature Documentary Nominating Committee and IDA Board of Directors’ co-vice president. “Through the art of filmmaking these films gave us an opportunity to truly look and learn through the lenses of others.”

The stars of “Grey’s Anatomy” are dishing on first-day jitters in the operating room, prepping for working with medical equipment and being pregnant on set. In a unique crossover event, actors Chandra Wilson (Dr. Miranda Bailey), Kim Raver (Dr. Teddy Altman) and Greg Germann (Dr. Tom Koracick) got together, virtually, with four real doctors from Netflix’s “Lenox Hill” to discuss...

The first eight episodes of the Netflix documentary series “Lenox Hill” followed doctors who are clearly passionate about what they do. In the heart of a profession that requires a specific, continuous commitment, these medical experts each talk about what motivates them to keep going in a job that’s drenched in uncertainty.
But for as much enthusiasm and conviction as those episodes have, the new half-hour follow-up detailing these doctors’ experiences after the arrival of coronavirus in New York City shows them in moments that bring them to tears. In this epilogue, there’s a very different feel to what viewers get to see of this fight. In the process, it shows how far away we still are from a point where we can look back with any definitive answers.

With temperatures on the rise and no end of summer in sight, we become increasingly thankful for the time we spend inside our air-conditioned homes, comforted by the silence which we have grown used to during quarantine, and entertained by our one and only true friend: Netflix. And so, on that note, here’s what’s new on the platform today, June 24th.
First off we have a documentary called Lenox Hill. Developed by Ruthie Shatz and Adi Barash, and starring John Boockvar, David Langer and Mirtha Macri among others, it follows the lives of doctors and nurses working at the Lenox Hill Hospital in upper Manhattan. Christened as one of the most poignant docuseries of the year, its latest episode is centered around, you guessed it, Covid-19. Specifically, it will explore how the employees of this hard-hit hospital dealt with the pandemic.
Up next we have another documentary, this one called Athlete A.

Convincing someone to let you follow them around as you go about your day is hard enough. Ruthie Shatz and Adi Barash, directors of the new Netflix documentary series “Lenox Hill,” had to persuade a quartet of doctors at the hospital in New York’s Upper East Side to allow them into some of the most intimate parts of their daily life.
In order to gain the trust of not only them but the patients in their care, the key to was to be incredibly up front about what they were looking to do with what became an eight-part season of TV.
“Trust is everything in what we do. It’s trust and really conveying your intention. It’s your intentions that make it meaningful at the end,” Barash told IndieWire. “Trust is a very important commodity, especially with these characters. They’re revealing themselves, their stories, and private lives,...

Netflix is having a stellar month. Space Force is picking up rave reviews and big audience figures and the final season of 13 Reasons Why has been a hit. But the wheels continue to turn, with its massive library of content expanding every day.
Today, June 10th, is no exception. There are two cool new horror shows premiering, a sci-fi thriller, an interesting documentary series, some comedy and a family drama.
See below for the full list:
Released June 10
Curon *Netflix Series
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow: Season 5
Lenox Hill *Netflix Documentary
Middle Men
My Mister: Season 1
Reality Z *Netflix Original
Pride of place is Curon, a much-hyped Italian horror series about a mother returning to her hometown with her twin boys to find sinister supernatural goings-on. It looks set to follow in the same trend as Marianne and The Haunting of Hill House and has a pretty damn spooky trailer.
