SnoopyStyle Disillusioned Dr. John Ellison (Jason O'Mara) saves a child during a gangland shootout and kills one of the attackers. Antoine is still targeted and he hides him with the help of nurse Gretchen Polk (Jessica Szohr). Antonine's father is a gangleader in prison and he threatens John with the help of his underling Darius Bishop. Unbeknowst to John, Gretchen is deep in a fraud scheme at the hospital with her friend Jed. Dr. O'Neill is suspicious. John is attacked at home and detective Holden of the Gang Task Force is digging. Even John's wife is suspicious.The problem of the show is that Ellison does unreasonable things. I was confused by his actions for the first several episodes. Then I change my mind and see him with serious mental health issues. His frustrations and inner anger cause his irrational ways. That excuses some of the problems of the show but not all of them. Jason O'Mara is the picture of intensity and the acting is generally good. The plot has a few too many complications piling on too quickly. A little simplification would really help.
getnoldfast I've really enjoyed this show! The characters really fit well together and the intensity in each episode keeps you coming back for more. I am quite DISAPPOINTED that they killed off Darius. He was one of the cornerstones of the show! They could have wounded him. He was just a great character with how he interacted with the doctor...and deep down inside you knew he was a good guy overall.The doctor certainly walks a fine line between what is lawfully correct and what is needed to distance himself and his family from all the trouble he accidentally brought into his life. His dad is a good side figure that is supportive of his son through thick and thin...even though he apparently screwed up back in the day. Overall, this is one of the better shows out there and I'm certainly looking forward to the next season. However, killing off this very instrumental character was not only wrong, but very unexpected.
reservoircat-1 Don't listen to the trolls. These are people who yell at a hamburger because it is not prime rib!This new series is dark and edgy fun for viewers who like Dexter and Banshee. Yes, 'Complications' is absolutely preposterous. It is also absolutely entertaining, for those of us willing to suspend our disbelief. No, an E.R. surgeon would never be put into such extraordinary circumstances, but so what? This is escapist pulp fiction, and it's very entertaining pulp fiction!This show is a vigilante story combined with the delerium of '24' and the background of medical procedurals. The frenetic plot is established within minutes; 15.25 minutes, to be exact. If you don't like the show in that time, then this series is not for you.Jason O'Mara is excellent as the protagonist lead. It's impossible not to cheer for his character to succeed! He is very believable as the tormented father with every mercurial mood swing. His face is capable of tremendous expressiveness. And he is given very compelling reasons for his character's outrageous decisions. Jessica Szhor is similarly brilliant in her contribution as the fringe-personality nurse; the two of these actors bring a real chemistry and grit to the storyline.If the writers can keep the next two episodes from going over the top, then this series is on a trajectory to becoming a cult classic. If the writers can't keep it on the rails, then this show will not be renewed.Go. Watch the first 15.25 minutes of episode 1, and see for yourself. If you like lurid pulp fiction, then you'll like Complications!
Aktham Tashtush The show started in a mysteriously catchy intriguing way a moment and its 10 hours ago flashback isn't new but here it felt really fresh, where in the psychic office another flashbacks appear like a web with the park shooting with the memories of his daughter .. just to make you understand well what's really the story and make you more and more engaged in the plot. The story itself is not strictly into medical shows and all as i expected it to be which would've made it a regular copy of "grey's anatomy" or "the night shift" but this one got it's own personality by the concept of saving someone not just medically but like really saving him ;) And it never stops surprising you with new tangled events where you'd expect things are just simple for such show. After "Burn Notice" Matt Nix did a good job on this script the show looked so much precise and on point you just want to know what's gonna happen next and how he got himself involved in this mess where things escalated quickly from a shooting in a park to a gang war to attempt murder in the 3rd episode ;) ....As for the cast,, well at first i didn't really feel that Jason O'Mara was a good choice for the lead ,, i don't know, his face felt a bit rigid and inflexible but as the scenes rolled his expressions evolved and got more involved on the show. The nurse Gretchen "Jessica Szohr" is Daaaaamn hot with her tattoos also Eric Edelstein character as drug addict was spot on.Overall, USA network made a bold yet a great choice picking this show on the screen ,, and from three episodes so far i really have a good feeling about this one ,, and i think it'll make a fine success._____________ Update ______________________well it's episode 7 here and honestly things are heating up quickly .. the thrill is at it on the same high level ... Excited and eager for more ..____________________________________________
