George is the reason to tune in. She’ll be the reason why you keep coming back.
I’d ask for a script doctor, but it’s time to call the code and be done with it.

I LOVE this show and Alex's personality and the fact that this show has a strong female heart surgeon as the main character. I love that this show is much different than Grey's Anatomy and Chicago Med and the other medical shows out there. Alex is witty and strong! This show is Fantastic and should be renewed for more seasons ASAP!

SEASON 1
I can't believe people don't like this show, I think it is refreshing, not the same tired old medical drama, so some of the storyline may be a little far fetched, but hey it's TV use your imagination, geesh, I'm tired of the same old cop and medical shows, same show just on a different network with different actors. I don't know about everyone else but this world we live in today is just crazy, it's rough and messy, so why do I want to set in front of the TV and watch the real world, I like a little far fetched sometimes and breaking ALL the rules, sarcasm, and the characters are lovable. I so enjoy this show, I look forward to Tuesday nights it's an escape for me and this show is AWESOME I really think NBC is making a mistake cancelling this one and for crying out loud, especially cancelling it and keeping Nick Cannon's show, Wow! Makes no sense to me. No entertainment what so ever in that show, You Tube on TV. Maybe people will think I am shallow for liking this show but it get's 1000 thumbs up from me.

SEASON 1
Some of it might have been written by a computer, sure, but a better class of computer than sometimes is hired to write for TV. The cast, which also includes D.L. Hughley as a psychologist, Maya Erskine as a nurse and Jamie Kennedy as an unkempt, somewhat obnoxious doctor (softened in later episodes), is pleasant company.
All of Alex’s quirks (she has a tendency to spit while talking) and surgical brilliance (practically on a whim, she pulls off a heart transplant procedure that only four others have managed before her) can’t mask the grim fact that she’s ultimately a collection of threadbare drama-series clichés. ... Even worse, the show’s supporting characters are all some combination of bland, unbelievable, and/or reprehensible.
The relationships are paint-by-numbers predictable as are the plots and Alex's I-know-better-than-everyone-else reactions. Heartbeat has a pulse but just barely.
Heartbeat is, sadly, a show without much of a pulse.
Heartbeat feels like it sprung to life from a computer program that had been fed the scripts of every medical drama in the last two decades. It has no pulse.
I just love this series! After a hard day at work you want something interesting, funny. Not too heavy. This show has a great storyline and it's different from Grey's Anatomy or The Night Shift or even Chicago MED (which I love all of them) but that's why it is great, it still have the medical side to it, but on a romantic,funny way. All the actors fit perfectly together and I would be hart broken if I they cancel this show. It's like people just want hardcore DRAMA, Why? We live in a damage world, let's enjoy the smaller things in life that makes us laugh and relaxed!!

Heartbeat is a smart, hilarious, fast moving, interesting show. Wonderful actors, quirky fabulous writing and movement that helps the audience believe these characters are real and worthy of your time. Love the show. Laugh and look forward to the next episode.

I was very open to liking this, as I enjoy Hospital TV dramas and see Melissa George as a competent actress. Her interpretation of the lead character turned me off majorly. It was overblown, affected, unlikeable. I will not be tuning in again, as apart from Dave Annable's Pierce, the other characters were not engaging either, though not sure if they were engaging it would make up for such a dislikable (not in a 'good' way) lead.

Thought I'd visit this new series as there isn't much to watch otherwise. Episode is about a 55 year old man, and "old" father who needs a heart transplant but for some kooky reason he has to be plugged into his daughter so they can "share" a common circulation w daughter's heart doing the work. He REFUSES to put his daughter at risk. Daughter is okay w risk but the man REFUSES. Should have ended the conversation, but not for this Dr. Knocks him out w drugs and proceeds anyway - REALLY?!! If this ever becomes legal, I'm dropping all health insurance - Obamacare be damned. You wouldn't force me to have surgery that you had to eat the costs yourself.

I was eager for a new show. Hearbeat looked promising. But no. No thanks. I couldn't finish the first episode. It was not at all what I was hoping for. It's just not funny and rrelies too much on the lead female character who can't seem to decide whether she wants to be funny or she wants to be taken seriously.
