Mercy Street - PBS Drama

[L Verge]

I watched the first twenty or so minutes until the bumbling Miss Green stumbled into the bed holding a soldier in traction. I spent two weeks in traction as a child, and I could feel the pain even though I knew it was just a movie. I also think they overkilled the blood and gore of the wounded. Not saying that it didn't happen, but most people who were tuned in probably already knew what the medical field was dealing with during the Civil War.

It's good and hopefully will get better. Especially good as a plug for learning about the Civil War - and a way to spend cold Sunday nights for the next few months.
