The new series HawthoRNe premiered on TNT June 16, 2009. The drama series is set in present time in Trinity Hospital in Richmond, VA. and the storyline is told from the point of view of Christina Hawthorne (chief nursing officer) played by Jada Pinkett Smith. Christina Hawthorne is a caring nurse who is a single mother raising a rebellious? teenage daughter after her husband died a year ago.
Christina has a soft spot? in her heart for a homeless woman (Isabelle)? who just gave birth without the aid of the hospital staff but Christina?helps her in any way that she can. Christina also provides professional and personal??advice to all the nurses that report to her and she challenges doctors when she knows that they are wrong in their diagnosis. HawthoRNe is a television? series?with a lot of talented actors who supports Jada pinkett?smith in her role, these supporting actors also bring drama, beauty ?and a sense of humor to?the series.? I enjoyed watching the first episode and I look forward to the rest of the series.?it doesn’t hurt to know that Jada pinkett smith is also an executive producer of the series so its in her best interest to make sure that this series is outstanding.
With all of the?TV shows that I usually watch taking a break over the?summer,?HawthoRNe is a welcoming addition?to my list of shows. I will definitely watch this?show and if?I’m not able to view it on?Tuesday nights I will DVR it.?
My overall impression of the TNT drama HawthoRNe is that this show is a hit and will do very well in the ratings.? I can’t think of a TV series that focuses primarily on the nurses of the hospital.
