Strong first half.

Short and sweet.

Guilty pleasure?

Time travel romance.
Interesting dynamic, as you see modern day medicine vs historical acupuncture techniques.
10. Life

The show itself is mid but I extremely enjoyed the ship it gave me (KSH & LNE).
Plot wise it kind of focuses more on the business aspect of running the hospital rather than medical work.
