We had a laugh when the actor playing Louie had to take a breath even though he was dead. This was when everyone was in the room after be was pronounced, not the story when they were cleaning him up. You know that big boy can't hold his breath for long. I have always wondered how many retakes they have to do on shows like this due to the supposed-to-be-dead actor breathing

Inadequate prison food was this week's PSA. Go ahead and admit him where he can get 400 calories from 2 Ensures per day and some broth. That will get him back on track


I have taken care of hundreds of prisoners, I can't say I've ever seen one malnourished. In fact, most of them are in better shape than I am or fatter than I am.


I was expecting to find out he's a child diddler or snitch and that's why he was short on food and got his ass kicked.


Family friend was a CO for a while. They had a similar case with a convicted cho-mo, but that dude also needed a broom handle-ectomy.

I binged this show over the last couple of weeks and it's great, but damn it's intense. Pretty sure this show is better served watching one episode per week so you can decompress from each one. Watching 1-2 per day is not recommended, I learned my lesson.


Very few shows have me wanting more after watching. This was one of them.


do you ever read a post and want to star and it wonder why you can't but then you realize you can't star it because it was your post?

As a EM doc and fan of this board, would yall want to do an AMA (ask me anything) on the ET board for the PITT and emergency medicine at some point?

Dr Not yet Dr. ag, (or any other EM docs) if you are wanting to join too that would be great. Maybe we could pick a time and would love to give an hour or so, and just answer questions.

I have a hard time watching the show because it's so real and it's hard finding entertainment in something that is just so reminiscent of work, so I'm going along at a snails pace and way behind.


My brother in law is an ER doctor. I asked him if he liked it, and was specifically wondering if he'd be into it, simply bc I figured it could be hard to watch after spending all day at work.


what was his answer?

That may be what's up - they have focused a lot on people trying to be nice and have sympathy for the prisoner. New doc wanted him to stay longer, everyone wanting him out of handcuffs, trying to help him get his nutrition back on track, the blonde nurse taking away his pulse ox so he would have to be admitted and stay a few days. Either it's what you said and everyone that has been helping will feel gross knowing they helped a pedo, or it's just an ad to say good people are being treated poorly in prison, or what we are predicting - he goes crazy violent and hurts a doc or nurse when he should've been back at prison (hence the emphasis on keeping him cuffed.).

I hope they don't go this route. I'm still traumatized by seeing Lucy die due to a patient on ER when I was a kid. I'm sure Carter/Robby is still traumatized by that too.

I had nightmares about that one and I wasn't a kid.

Anytime the show made a point to emphasize those cuffs I got nervous.

Definitely seems like Chekhov's handcuffs, but we'll see. That might have been the full story.

I don't know if this is hitting anyone else's SM thread, but I'm here for all the "Baby Jane Dough" content!

I couldn't place where I'd seen the "Death Dula" actress. She was the chubby friend on the sitcom "Ed" about a lawyer that goes home and runs a bowling alley. It was where Julie Bowen landed after Happy Gilmore and before Modern Family. Good show from what I remember.

Santos is sneaky hot btw. I hope she stays.

In the post show review

It was surprising to see Whitaker is a full on Brit complete with heavy accent

The Death Doula popped to me immediately as an actress I knew, so I was surprised that she hasn't been in that much stuff, though I did watch Ed back in the day.

I totally remember that scene where Carter falls after being stabbed then sees Lucy laying on the hospital floor bloodied. Amazing, gut wrenching television.

The song they had leading up to and during that scene tied it all together in my opinion. "Battle Flag" by Lo Fidelity Allstars.

20 some odd years later and i still cant listen to that song without thinking of that scene. one of the best all time music placements.

Anyone else have thoughts of former A&M receiver Thomas Johnson during the story about the law student with recent onset mental illness?
