Season 1 Review:
Despite the burden the binge-model proposes, Netflix has crafted one of the best procedural dramas of the decade. .... The pressure of life-or-death stakes, paired with the unbeatable chemistry of each and every cast member, makes this series feel like lightning in a bottle. These characters don’t feel like caricatures of medical professionals: they feel like real people.

Season 1 Review:
Pulse might not be interested in reinventing the wheel, but it gives the formula a slight upgrade. And while the show doesn’t always land, it nicely juggles soapy entertainment with relevant issues, making for a worthy Netflix investment as the streamer tries to carve a space in the medical-procedural landscape.

Considering that most characters don't get the depth they deserve, as well as Pulse's lack of story originality — both in terms of workplace dynamics and the clinical cases the doctors are working on — it's hard to determine if the show will make it to another season (or whether it deserves to).

Season 1 Review:
It might’ve been possible to extract a fun procedural from this setup, but with Pulse, the execution is even shoddier than the premise. The patients are a blur of slit-open chest cavities. A big supporting cast—including the two strongest actors, Machado and Néstor Carbonell (Lost), who plays a high-ranking surgeon—is wasted in one-note roles.
