A Square Peg In A Round Hole Chicago Med
Okay, let's be real. We all love Chicago Med. Drama, doctors, and daring rescues. What's not to like?
But I've got a confession. A maybe-slightly-unpopular opinion simmering. Someone feels a bit…off.
That One Character…
I'm talking about a character who just doesn't quite fit. A square peg desperately trying to squeeze into a round hole of the Gaffney Chicago Medical Center.
Must Read
They're not bad. Not inherently. But something about them just rubs me the wrong way.
Is it Just Me?
Maybe it's their backstory. Maybe it's their bedside manner. Or maybe, just maybe, it's the way they dramatically deliver every single line.
It feels like they're auditioning for a Broadway play, inside the emergency room! A tad much, perhaps?
Don't get me wrong, the rest of the cast? Gold. Dr. Choi brings the intensity. Dr. Manning, the heart. Sharon Goodwin, the unwavering leader.
They're all perfectly seasoned ingredients in this medical drama stew. This one character? A rogue chili pepper. Unexpected. Potentially overpowering.
The Drama Quotient
Chicago Med thrives on drama, obviously. But there's good drama. And then there's...forced drama.
This character seems to constantly be seeking the latter. Always involved in the most improbable, over-the-top situations.
It’s like they're actively searching for patients with the rarest of rare diseases, or the most complicated of complicated ethical dilemmas.
Meanwhile, the rest of the doctors are, you know, treating regular illnesses. Broken bones. Flu season. You know, doctor stuff.
The Relationship Rollercoaster
And the relationships! Oh, the relationships. This character's love life is a rollercoaster designed by a caffeinated squirrel.
One minute they're passionately in love. The next, they're screaming at each other in the hospital hallway. The next? Back in love, apparently.
I need a Dramamine just watching them!
Meanwhile, other characters manage to navigate complex relationships with a modicum of sanity. Impressive, really.
A Call For…Something
Look, I'm not saying this character needs to be written off the show. That's far too dramatic, even for me!
But maybe…maybe dial it back a notch? Let them have a quiet day. Give them a patient with a simple cold.
Let them just…exist. Without causing a hospital-wide crisis. Is that too much to ask?
Because honestly, sometimes less is more. Especially in a show as already packed with drama as Chicago Med.
So, am I alone in this? Is there anyone else who feels this particular square peg just isn't fitting so snugly into the round hole of Gaffney Chicago Medical Center?
Or am I just destined to be forever annoyed by their overly dramatic pronouncements and improbable romantic entanglements?
Let me know! Misery loves company, especially when it comes to slightly-too-intense TV characters.
