Nurses -- as Veronica Callahan tartly explains to a new doctor on staff -- treat patients, while doctors treat diseases. Recently returned from a military tour in Iraq and with deeper medical experience than most of the facility's residents combined, she -- along with fellow nurses Sonia, a jaded veteran, and naive newbie Chloe -- navigates life both inside the hospital and out. Complicating matters is hospital newcomer Dr. Chris Sands, with whom she shares a past.
Mercy — Season 1

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Mercy is a heavy-handed medical drama that tries to draw blood from an overworn, cliched stone.

Ellen Gray Philadelphia Inquirer When it comes to "Mercy," they (and we) should probably expect none. Sep 27, 2019 Full Review Randee Dawn The Hollywood Reporter Ultimately, despite an attempt to raw up the scene with topical war references, Mercy ends up being just another hospital soap opera that audiences have seen, and seen done better. Sep 27, 2019 Full Review Rachel Ray Daily Telegraph (UK) This is a creation with spunk and spine. Mercy is marvelous television. Sep 24, 2009 Full Review Dustin Rowles Pajiba It's worse than milquetoast; it's moldy -- but inexplicably glossy -- toast you find underneath the refrigerator that's been lying there for years, collecting maggots and smelling up your kitchen. Jun 15, 2018 Full Review Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette Nothing in Mercy feels real or believable, particularly the naivete of the recent grad student newbie nurse, who acts as if she's never been in a hospital. Sep 23, 2009 Full Review Ed Bark Uncle Barky Some of this is heavy-handed. But Mercy can be affecting and involving, too. Rated: B Sep 23, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews
