This is a decent series, but not brilliant. It's billed as a medical drama with a supernatural twist, but to be honest, the supernatural twist is barely noticeable. The "ghost" only appears about once in each episode and generally for no more than a "chat" with the doctor.All the episode follow a pretty predictable route from start to finish and the characters are very loosely built. I really struggle to "like" any of them if I'm honest because you don't get to know any of them. Add to that, that in todays money orientated world, the story lines of bringing street urchins to the multi million dollar surgery and performing multi trillion dollar operations on them for the price of a smile, are just a little too sickly and unbelievable.I had high hopes for this series, but even though it's very watchable, it is a serious disappointment..

This is without a doubt, the best and most refreshing show on T.V. bar none!!!!!!The acting is superb....especially "Michael" and I hope the show continues with the high quality it has now, with the plots about things happening around the clinic and hospital...no drama queens please...just down to earth plots with the great acting continuing. Please continue with Anna in the scenes, but don't "overdue" it. You don't want it being compared to Ghost Whisperer because it is not like that at all. Keep all the characters you have now as they, in my opinion, are real, diverse and totally believable. I'd like to see some in depth about each of the characters over the season, but please.....keep it real

I have spent the entire weekend watching the first 12 episodes and at first I thought it was a little like House but then I got over it. I like Michael Holt and I like that he reveals a little of himself every week. The menagerie that accompanies him every week fits in with each episode and the writing is quite good.I know it's probably headed for the scrapheap because most of the good ones are but I hope it reveals a lot more of Michael and Anna's relationship that we don't know already. I love Rita and while I didn't like her at first she is the type to grow on you and certainly would pull the group at the Clinic into line and probably get them the money they need to continue to support the community.Good one! Well done and let's hope that if the show is canceled that Patrick Wilson finds another home on TV very soon. He would be sorely missed otherwise.

I happened to love the pilot, and was excited about the follow-ups.Instead of exploring the great initial idea for the show, they've strayed into a regular run-of-the-mill medic show, which is fine, had it not been that so many other shows already do that much better than this.I think it's very sad, and a lost opportunity, that they've squandered a good premise in this way.All that's left now of the "spirit" / "ghost" theme, is that she's acting as a voice-over, albeit appearing visually. And a pretty dull one, at that.
