Netflix's Pulse Medical Drama Premieres April 3

Netflix is launching its first English-language medical drama, 'Pulse', premiering on April 3. Created by Zoe Robyn and co-showrun with Carlton Cuse, the series unfolds in Miami's busiest Level 1 Trauma Center during a hurricane. Dr. Danny Simms, portrayed by Willa Fitzgerald, is unexpectedly promoted after the suspension of Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips, played by Colin Woodell, amidst personal and professional turmoil. The narrative explores complex relationships among the hospital staff, intensified by the life-or-death stakes presented by the storm and the ER's lockdown. The show aims to combine medical drama with interpersonal dynamics, akin to 'Grey's Anatomy'. 'Pulse' is part of Netflix's strategic move into cost-effective procedurals, following a trend seen with other recent medical dramas.
