Good, hopefully it will get better

Warning: Spoilers
Season 2 started with a shooting involving Alex and Charlie. Not injured the both rushed to help those around them. The next hour revolved around the main players helping the patients from the shooting or a story that connected to the shooting in someway.

Things I enjoyed included - the relationship between Alex and Charlie. We saw some sweet moments. I also loved when Charlie went to see Shahir in hopes of getting an MRI - Charlie: "You want me to see a Psychiatrist?" Shahir: "Charlie, you were in a coma for three months. Your brain is fine, but you're acting weird and I don't do feelings."

Things I felt didn't work so well were Alex working with Maggie and all the buddy, buddy going on between them. Also, why is Charlie giving Maggie the time of day? He hardly new her in season one. Dawn was pointless in the episode and only tried to stir things up, and not well.

Things I would like to see - Charlie learning more about his abilities. More natural relationships between the staff (sometimes these seem forced). Story lines that are a little less contrived.

Overall, a good episode, but I do hope that it improves as I did enjoy last season and I didn't think it was there yet.

At least CTV had the smarts to renew this
"Saving Hope" is NOT the best TV show in history. That being said, I'm hard-pressed to find a better current show. I'm not one to get emotional over a TV show, but last season had some episodes that I watched 3 and even 4 times. The combination of plot, acting, and the background music hit chords that rang solid emotionally. I was elated when he came out of the coma, and I was happy for her that her life could continue. Then, NBC cancelled the show (or at least didn't list it as renewed for 2013.

Now, it pops up on CTV. And the first episode picked right up emotionally where last season ended. It's appropriate that he has some new abilities, and this could become an even better show. I'm back to awaiting each new episode. Let's hope it can continue.

This show is not to be missed.
