Being Erica

In the news: Being Erica review

From Myles McNutt of Cultural Learnings:

  • Season Two Premiere: Being Erica – “Being Dr. Tom”
    “While the easy route is to throw Erica’s life back into turmoil and unearth a whole other set of regrets in her past, the show does something completely different. Picking up where last season left off, with Dr. Tom gone (due to their confrontation after she saves Leo’s life) and a new therapist in a sterile white office waiting for Erica, the show plays around with the definitions of student and teacher, and patient and therapist, while expanding on (in a number of different ways) just what this cosmic therapy is exactly. The result is a highly compelling premiere that reveals a whole new side to Dr. Tom, and a whole new path for this sophomore series.” Read more.

In the news: Potential series focuses on Kandahar hospital

From Bill Graveland of the Canadian Press:

  • Vancouver writer plans new TV series based on Kandahar combat hospital
    “It’s not exactly ER, and will likely lack the pathos-laced humour of MASH, but a new television series is in the works that aims to focus more attention on the ongoing trials and tribulations of Canadian soldiers in the war in Afghanistan. With the working title Combat Hospital, the show will be based on the daily activities at the constantly busy Role 3 Multinational Hospital at Kandahar Airfield.” Read more.
