Finally, done watching Nurse Jackie. Cripes. I am not putting myself through that again; my two-star review is generous as hell. I've actually said that about a one-star review before; we should have the freedom to give it as many as five stars or a thumbs down instead.
I published a review saying that instead of the way it is, Dr. Aka-litus should have been the adoptive mother to Grace; and Jackie Peyton should have been a cameo, somebody mentioned once or twice like her name left a bad taste in the mouth because she was the bitch who abandoned her baby. That's how much I hate her. The good news is, the writers left her fate up to the viewer, so in my mind, she dies and only a handful of people go to the funeral. But all they can talk about is how she performed at work. She's not a mom, not a wife, not even a person outside the hospital. Kevin doesn't say anything. Grace and Fiona don't say anything. Gloria mentions how she encouraged her to call her son, but otherwise was a plague on her life.

Screen goes black to the sound of silence, boom.
Not many more similarities to other shows. Like in House MD's episode Unwritten, there is a woman Helen whose real name is believed to be Alice; and in Nurse Jackie, there is a Helen who also uses a different name. In my experience, coincidences are much less likely than someone ripping you off.
And that's it. There may be more similarities, I mean, but now that I'm finished with the show, I'm going to forget them....I hope. Obviously I like Grace and Gloria, but they deserved better. Hell― Thor deserved better. Hell, even Zoey deserved better!
Feels so good to be done. I never have to look at Jackie again.
