Yes, craving more medical shows after watching ER for the _th time, indulging in The Pitt, barely making it through Pulse on Netflix, and loving Respira (also on Netflix via Spain), I stumbled upon Krank Berlin and absolutely fell in love with the pilot. It was intense AF and may try it again on a week to week basis like you suggested. Too, like you said, the cinematography and color grading is cool to watch! I’ve never seen that before. Just wish we could make a modern medical show for the US that isn’t so dry as Pitt but feels chaotic and true to life unlike counterparts Greys and Pulse. Thanks for writing this piece!
Oh my god you made it through Pulse? I started and wanted to finish but haven't succeeded so far 😅. Does the assault storyline go anywhere satisfying? I found it so weird how they approach it in the first few episodes.
I might just give up Pulse and start Krank Berlin now.
The assault storyline is resolved but not satisfying and it’s definitely not what we think it is. They played in the grey area of it all but dropped the ball with it IMO. Like they didn’t want to commit either way. And the reason why he left his old hospital is not that big of deal.
That's what I was worried about that they would just end up with some meh in between wishy washy resolution. Sounds like the show doesn't get much better then 😅
What a wonderful and thoughtful piece!! Love this show and your reflections on it 🩷
