'"Nurse Jackie," the pilot in particular, is constructed out of a lot of second-hand parts...But my opinion is that it's not the song, but how you sing it, and Edie Falco makes some beautiful damn music as Jackie. Yes, they lay on the Jackie-as-vigilante-nurse thing a bit thick here...[b]ut pilots often have to color in broad strokes to make an impression, then get more into nuance as they go forward.' Eh, I'll believe it when I see it. I think this character might have made for a good recurring arc on House although I understand Falco's argument about the need for more female-fronted TV projects.
