"Rush" (not the movie or the other TV series) is like any doctor show you can imagine - on steroids. And I wouldn't doubt it if the main character wasn't actually on steroids - he ingests everything else. Everything. Ev-ery-thing.
Let me see if I can encapsulate my feelings about the pilot episode:
- Love it.
- Hate it.
- Love it again.
- Hate it again.
- Like it enough to continue watching.
Rinse and repeat.
The main character, William P. Rush as played by Wales actor Tom Ellis is a hard partying doctor who will do just about 1) anyone, 2) any drug or 3) anything for a buck - or, er, actually lots of bucks because usually his clients want to remain "off the grid" for whatever medical procedure they're calling him for and they pay handsomely.
Bank. Moola. Cashola - he thrives on it.
