Just started watching this series and it is BRILLIANT!
Not surprisingly Steven Soderbergh is associated with this. I love his work and almost always find him genius auteur.
I also was interested in seeing the lead actor in this series, Clive Owen in action again, after being so impressed with him in 2006 film Children of Men.
This isn't an easy series to watch - the scenes in the hospital's operating theatre are gruesome to be perfectly frank and did make me feel a bit squeamish at times. But it is utterly fascinating to watch and lives up to the series' tagline... Modern medicine had to start somewhere.
A++ all around... for casting, plots, cinematography, atmosphere, acting, and the sheer joy of watching one of my most favourite directors of all time get to work his magic!
