A surprisingly effective personal drama.

This is suspense that goes well beyond that of most medical shows.

A mushy, messy, medical melodrama that's pretty much identical to a dozen other doctor dramas you've seen many times before.

Hollander... has pared the medical drama down to its barest notions of life and death and sliced away the acronyms, arguably just when they needed some cutting.

The characters connect mostly on a clinical level, rarely deeper.

A pedestrian medical drama that sparks to life near the end of the pilot.

The declining but not yet flatlining EKG of their relationship is captured very nicely by Williams and Matchett, both giving strong, stoic performances. Everything else is too quiet, though. [25 Jun 2007, p.41]

Despite “Heartland’s” obviously good intentions and Williams’ likable presence, it’s difficult to find a pulse in this workmanlike drama.

It is every organ transplant storyline you've ever seen before on "ER" or "Chicago Hope" or elsewhere, told in the most unimaginative fashion possible, acted out by a competent group of actors not given much to play.
