Season 1 Review: They are quirky--cookie-cutter quirky. But for summer TV drama, that's not the worst they could be. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Night Shift doesn’t really have another gear, but it refuses to go full Grey’s Anatomy and ramp up the sexy complications so much that it attains the lift off of fun melodrama. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Both ["Undateable" and The Night Shift] are NBC series serving as spring-summer filler, adequate at what they do but not worth scheduling your life around. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Shift is competent but useful mostly as a reminder to stay healthy at all costs and avoid this sort of place. [9 Jun 2014, p.34]

Season 1 Review: Not surprisingly, the producers assemble a sizable, attractive and appropriately diverse cast, albeit without giving many of them much to distinguish their characters, who--whatever the color of their scrubs--simply blend together. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The action may be as fast and persistent as a gurney on the way to an operating theater, but nothing can hide the wobbly scripting and weak characters it’s all riding on Read full review

Season 1 Review: It's hard to imagine any other reason for NBC to go ahead with a noisy, unwatchable show like Night Shift except to fill holes in its schedule. Read full review

So i just have to write something because all i see are 2014 critic reviews that appear like the critic's didn't even finish one episode. Series focuses more on action then on drama.

Series focuses more on action then on drama. The character are good and each have there own charm and thats the main reason i write this cause a critic said you can interchange them and thats just a flat out lie. All i can say is give it 1-2 episodes and see from there it's a really good show in my opinion.… Expand
