    Some things were a bit 'much' and over the top (like mexican gangsters all having tattoos and saying 'Ese'), but I liked it better than I thought I would. I watched it after watching Ray Donovan and it had a similar vibe to me. Only with less professional acting and production values.

    I really liked the show from day one! It is refreshing, the style is cool and it is just a blast to watch.
    In addition the music is well chosen. Can't wait to see more.

    It is like a combination of Ray Donovan and Scandal. Rush is a 'fixer' except he has some major problems of his own, But he's likeable and funny. Hope people check it out and give it a chance.

    Whatever you do if you're new to the show And have started washing the pilot do not give up on it after the first 20 minutes. Sure the guy seems like a repugnant prick but if you hang in there there is quite a bit of charm to be found in the show.

It's almost like a harder edged version of royal pains.… Expand

    I like this actor in other things I have seen him in, like oddly enough the comedy show Miranda.
    He is not likable in this. He does not have the writers to make him likable like House.
    I watched the first 3 episodes and gave up. Dreary, mean spirited and full of criminals and thugs.
    That is not how I choose to spend my TV watching time these days.

    The ludicrous medical melodrama Rush is a reminder that, if you push the envelope too hard without the compensating virtues of wit or even an iota of humanity and realism, the impulse is to push back.

    The show and its central character are thoroughly repulsive.

    It's as deeply cynical as its doctor anti-hero, but like Rush, it's aware of the path it's on and doesn't have the pretensions of being something it's not.
