Get ready for a new hospital series blending urgent medical crises with romantic entanglements in blue scrubs, coming soon to Netflix. Here’s what you need to know about the show.

Florida is bracing for a hurricane! This spells particular drama when viewed from the bustling trauma center of an ever-busy hospital. Amid the constant hustle, a young emergency room doctor strives to distinguish herself, complicated by her relationship with her boss, or so she believes. This new medical drama mixing intense work, dramatic storylines, and romantic connections premieres on Netflix on April 3, 2025.

The series is the brainchild of American creator Zoe Robyn, known for her writing on The Equalizer and Hawaii Five-O. The executive production is led by seasoned professional Carlton Cuse, known for his work on Jack Ryan, Locke & Key, Bates Motel, and Lost.

The series features prominent actors like Willa Fitzgerald, recognized for her role as Emma in Scream, adapted from the movie franchise, and seen in Dare Me and The Fall of the House of Usher. Colin Woodell, known from The Originals, The Purge, and The Flight Attendant, also stars, along with Justina Machado from Six Feet Under and One Day at a Time.
