Nurse Jackie: Season 7 [DVD + Digital]
Review by Suzanne Lanoue
11/3/15 |
I had never seen this series before, but I've read about
it in "Entertainment Weekly." They love the show. I knew it
was a comedy and that it was about a nurse who takes drugs.
Still, I wasn't sure I should just start watching the DVD,
so I first watched the very first episode, which I found
online.
It's pretty clear the show started out as a more
realistic show about a nurse who takes drugs and sleeps
around (although still a comedy), but as the series has
progressed, things have gotten more and more outrageous. It
kind of reminds me of "House," although Jackie is not nearly
as rude as he is. Then again, doctors have a lot more
power than nurses; he could probably get away with it more
than she would.
Jackie is actually very likable, even when she's doing
some pretty awful things. I wouldn't say the show is
as funny as "House," but it's a good show and enjoyable. The
characters are interesting and it makes a good comedy-soap
opera.
Season 7 starts after Jackie has been arrested. She got
in trouble at work for taking drugs, and then she fled (I
think they wanted her to take a drug test). She had a ton of
drugs in her car as she tried to drive to Florida, but then
she was in an accident, so they arrested her because of all
of the drugs they found.
It's a good show, and you should definitely check it out.
I would start with season 1, but that's just me. I hate
coming in the middle of a show. They do a very good
job, though, of letting you know who's who so you can just
starting watching this DVD if you want. I don't think you'll
be too lost.
The Blu-Ray is good and has a lot of entertaining
features to watch. This is the last season, so it's
going to have some bittersweet moments, I'm sure. I won't
spoil it for you. Go watch!!
