Unbelievable disturbing show, unrealistic medical situations, plots, and characters. Terribly phony depiction of an emergency department and hospital. Will Halstead unlikable character, with his sullen-sulky-mumpish face and mouth half open, is an utterly outrageous disgrace for the medical profession. Herein portrayed as a collection of emotionally unstable, narcissistic, ridiculous, awful, repulsive, and unprofessional characters. Breaking the law, HIPAA, assisting suicide, altering labs. Patient comes in and refuses treatment and wants to die, why did he go to the hospital in the first place? Who cares about the patients' will, we do what we want without even worrying about the consequences. Meanwhile, the gargoyle-harpy nurses are drama queens, scolding doctors, questioning authority, spending far too much time in personal affairs. Sex in the workplace, really??? However, New Amsterdam was cancelled even with a rating of 8.0 for losing viewers. I cannot believe that if the public did not see New Am, they would see Chi Med.
