I watched the "earthquake" episode to get a sense of what this series could do if the drama is amped up. My conclusion: middling. The earthquake isn't very realistically portrayed. The injured people look like someone slathered them with ketchup and left them lying on mats on the street. Where are the grievous amputation injuries? I guess the CGI budget didn't extend that far. The overall tone is smarmy and soapy. Lots of weepy characters and implied romantic entanglements. The kid gets to play doctor (illegally) and the patient doesn't croak. How nice for him but that kind of thing is a bore for the audience.
