The series will make its debut as the best medical show on American television, which is something given the competition (even just on NBC). And while it’s a bit early for a full-blown diagnosis, it may turn out to be one of the better dramas the network has ever had. ... The show operates at a very lofty level.
It's not a hugely innovative or adventurous medical drama, but it plays the familiar beats solidly. What the series, created by Joseph Kay, understands is that if you have a good character or two, audiences will embrace an otherwise by-the-numbers medical procedural. Transplant has that and is that.
Transplant may not be as exceptional as the good Dr. Bash, but it does the genre no harm. [14 - 27 Sep 2020, p.11]
Like “New Amsterdam,” “Transplant” is a high-gloss, middle-of-the-road broadcast drama. It’s “ER” with an immigration story overlay, but it doesn’t redefine the medical drama the way “ER” did in 1994.
Transplant feels like two different shows: A gritty one about Bash’s experiences as a doctor in war-torn Syria, and how he brings his life experience to his job; and a standard medical drama with pretty people solving medical mysteries every week. And the two really don’t mix.
