Medical dramas are all the rage on TV right now!

If you’re looking for something new to binge-watch, Netflix always has you covered with new releases and April is no different. Whether you’re looking for the latest installment of the heartwarming docuseries “Love on the Spectrum,” a new batch of feel-bad from “Black Mirror” or the last season of “You,” here’s a handy guide to the best new shows streaming on Netflix in April.

“Love on the Spectrum” Season 3 Madison and Tyler in “Love on the Spectrum” (Netflix)

The heartwarming docu-reality series “Love on the Spectrum” returned to Netflix this spring. This season picks back up with fan favorites Connor, Tanner, Abbey and David, to name a few, and introduces the audience to some new faces, Madison and Pari. Season 3 even features the series’ first queer relationship. The hopeful singles make breakthrough discoveries, and the happy couples face tough decisions as they navigate the ever-confusing world of romance.

Danny Simms and Xander Phillips' controversial romance in Pulse has led to a much-talked-about human resources (Hr) report that raises the stakes for both of them at Maguire Medical Center. 

In Netflix's medical drama, which premiered on April 3, Dr. Danny Simms is a third-year medical resident who works under the supervision of Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips. Based on that dynamic alone, it is clear that the pair's relationship is not ideal. 

However, the strong feelings between Danny and Xander were too much handle for both of them, leading to an intimate relationship that ended in workplace controversy.

Following its first weekend of release on Netflix, the new medical drama series Pulse might already be losing pulses and in need of the paddles. On Tuesday, April 8, just a few days after the show's release on April 3, Netflix revealed its latest viewership analysis, which spelled some extra good news for the thriller limited series Adolescence but some middling news for Pulse.

Once again, Adolescence broke some ratings records by moving past two seasons of Bridgerton to become the fourth most popular English-language Netflix show of all time with 17.8 million views accrued in its fourth week to add to its current tally of 114.5 million views. That's quite the achievement for the UK thriller, and one that Pulse couldn't be further behind.

In its opening weekend, the first four days of availability, Pulse grabbed 6.5 million views, which translates to 52 million hours viewed. Now, that's not the worst debut that a new...

When Pulse viewers first meet third-year resident Dr. Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald), she’s having “a woman’s worst day at work,” creator and co-showrunner Zoe Robyn tells Tudum. Not only has Danny just reported her boss, chief resident Dr. Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell), to Hr for sexual harassment, but rumors about the delicate situation is quickly sweeping through their workplace, Maguire Medical Center. Danny is staring down a lot of questions — both from her colleagues and for herself.

“What happens if you’re in love with your boss? What happens if you also work in a very high-stress, high-pressure environment? What happens if you’re promoted to your boss’ position?” asks Robyn. “And if you’re also in a hurricane?”

Yet, by the Pulse season finale, Danny is smiling. Over 10 episodes, she manages to win the coveted title of chief resident, lose it to her best friend Dr. Sam Elijah (Jessie T.

Note: This story contains spoilers from “Pulse” Episode 10.

“Pulse” may have kicked off with a big focus on the complicated romance between Danny Simms and Xander Phillips, and by the end of Season 1 the messiness between them seemed to fade into the background thanks to a long-awaited apology and an admission of guilt.

After Danny (Willa Fitzgerald) rescinded her sexual harassment claim against her ex, her future at the hospital remained under threat by Xander’s (Colin Woodell) influential parents, who hoped to get her out of their son’s way. When Danny confronted the disgruntled parent of a patient of her sister Harper’s (Jessy Yates), Natalie Cruz (Justina Machado) told Danny that she now had cause to fire her from the residency program.

Natalie faced pressure of her own: either fire Danny or give up control of the hospital’s emergency room. In the end she chose her pupil,...

After the bomb that Xander dropped at the end of episode 9, it's almost impossible to just dive right into a new trauma, but that's exactly what Pulse episode 10 does. The season finale reunites us with Glenn, the ornery husband whose wife Kathryn brought their baby into the hospital in episode 8. You know, the father that Danny pushed in the lobby. They probably didn't expect to see this family back at the hospital so soon.

However, the family got into a car accident when Glenn attempted to beat a moving train. He was ultimately air lifted to Maguire after sustaining serious injuries in the collision. Glenn initially rejects care, but he's just worried about hie wife Kathryn and their son Benny, who also arrive via helicopter. Benny survived without any injuries, though Harper was right that he has pyloric stenosis.

Pulse is a Netflix original medical drama unfolding amidst Miami’s lively urban landscape. Set in Maguire Medical Center—a Level 1 trauma facility grappling with nature’s fury—the series immerses viewers in a world where clinical emergencies intersect with tangled human affairs.

An imminent hurricane looms large over the city, and a catastrophic bus accident rattles the institution, creating an environment charged with relentless pressure and unforeseen challenges.

At the center is Dr. Danielle “Danny” Simms, whose bold move in submitting a sexual harassment claim against Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips sends ripples throughout the hospital.

This action ignites a complex series of events that tests both the medical staff and the ethical foundations of the establishment. The narrative paints a picture of a hospital in chaos, where life-saving procedures and urgent care scenes intertwine with the personal struggles and power shifts among its members.

Spoken exchanges in Spanglish...

Whether through a soap opera coating ("General Hospital"), the perspective of Hugh Laurie ("House"), or a long-running network procedural ("Grey's Anatomy"), the medical drama has always found tremendous success on television. Look at "ER," which ran for over 15 seasons from the mid '90s to the late 2000s. There's a built-in audience for these kinds of shows in which we come to know the patients that barrel though those hospital doors, in addition to the inner lives of the medical professionals themselves.

With that in mind, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise that the new Max Original series "The Pitt" has become a phenomenon and one of the most talked about series of the year so far. Even famed horror author Stephen King is raving about the show on social media.

"The Pitt" follows a rotating group of doctors, trainees, and other medical professionals during a chaotic 15 hour...

Following the dramatic ending of episode 8, Pulse episode 9 finds Xander back at work as chief resident and completing an online sexual harassment seminar. While Xander still has his offer for attending, there's now a chance that Danny could be dropped from the program. When Harper asks why she dropped the complaint, Danny explains it's not because it wasn't true but because she just needs Xander to apologize. She still loves him, even with everything that's happened.

The team doesn't have much time to unpack the latest developments between Danny and Xander. An after hours nightclub was engulfed in flames by a pyrotechnics misfire, causing a stampede and multiple injuries among partygoers. Xander and Danny work together well as Xander steps right back into his role as chief without incident. He even works perfectly with Camila, who...

If your mind is still spinning from Danny taking back her complaint, you're not the only one. Pulse episode 8 opens with Maguire's resident gossip queen Cole already yapping to Elijah about Danny's retraction. Their gossip session is interrupted by a mother named Kathryn, played by guest star Katie Leclerc, bringing her baby, Benny, who stopped breathing and now won't stop crying. Harper and Elijah care for Benny, and Harper's concerned that the baby could be malnourished.

Meanwhile, Danny and Xander see each other for the first time in days in the Hr waiting room. Human resources wants to know why she changed her mind about what happened between them at the retreat, and Xander does, too. Danny doesn't seem interested in rehashing the details. She just wants to tell Hr that they both agreed to drop...

If you have already finished your binge-watch of Netflix's new original medical drama series Pulse, you're probably still reeling from the 10-episode rollercoaster ride. From the very first episode, we're dropped into Miami's Maguire Hospital, where the staff reels from their chief resident's suspension in the wake of a sexual harassment allegation and an incoming direct-hit hurricane. As they say, when it rains, it pours, and it's a torrential downpour for this emergency room stuff.

Between saving the lives of patients in critical condition (and losing a few along the way) and their own interpersonal relationships, the Maguire staff has a full plate. Throughout the season, we learn what happened between third-year resident Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald) and chief resident Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell) that led to Danny reporting him to Hr for sexual harassment. She's promoted to...

Before you check out the list, here’s Netflix’s official description of the show, which focuses on the daily happenings at Miami’s Level 1 trauma center Maguire Medical Center and the lives of its staffers: “As a hurricane barrels towards Miami’s busiest Level 1 Trauma Center, third-year resident Dr. Danny Simms (Willa Fitzgerald) is unexpectedly thrust into a promotion when beloved Chief Resident Dr. Xander Phillips (Colin Woodell) is suspended. Amid the worsening storm and an onslaught of trauma cases, the hospital goes into lockdown, and...

The medical drama Pulsequickly ushers you through its emergency room doors, introducing the vast cast of doctors, nurses, and other essential staff who make up Miami’s Level 1 trauma center, Maguire Medical Center. Series creator and co-showrunner Zoe Robyn knows that no one ever wants to be in the hospital. “But if you were in the hospital — this is the one you would want to be in. You want to be in the care of these people,” she tells Tudum.

At the forefront of the action in Pulse is Dr. Danny Simms (Fall of the House of Usher’s Willa Fitzgerald), a third-year medical resident whose tempestuous personal life is rivaled only by the hurricane barreling toward Magic City. Danny is one of several members of the emergency medical team, and the seriesalso features surgeons, nurses, and first responders she works alongside daily. Maguire is a bustling hospital with plenty...

“Pulse” centers around the complicated relationship between an emergency medicine resident and her chief, a power dynamic imbalance series creator Zoe Robyn said was inspired by instances in her real life.

The Netflix medical drama, which stars Willa Fitzgerald and Colin Woodell as doctors Danny Simms and Xander Phillips, kicks off as the medical team at Miami’s fictional Maguire Medical Center prepares for the arrival of Hurricane Abby. A metaphorical storm has also hit the hospital though, as it’s revealed that Danny filed a sexual harassment suit against Xander — as flashbacks show that the pair has been seeing each other in secret for a while now.

“When I was writing the pilot, I didn’t really set out to write a medical show or a hurricane show. I was wanting to write the story of this Danny and Phillips relationship,” Robyn told TheWrap. “I was kind of drawing...

Picking up after a cathartic but traumatic episode for Danny, Pulse episode 7 begins with her attempting to smooth things over with Harper. Their father is back home and doing better, but Harper's not open to talking to her sister just yet. Trying to maintain a generous spirit, Danny gives Elijah his pick of two traumas coming to the hospital. It's crunch time for them since the academic year has ended and Cruz will be making her choice for next year's chief resident soon. She's keeping a close watch on them.

Elijah cares for a patient suffering from an alligator attack to his face. He's bloodied and in a lot of pain. When Cole arrives to help prep for surgery, he undercuts and overrides a decision Elijah made right in front of Cruz. Meanwhile, Danny cares for a...

For over 20 years, Grey's Anatomy has dominated as the most popular medical drama and one of the most popular drama shows ever. As a result, any new medical drama is benchmarked against it. Shows in this category are seeing a resurgence as streaming platforms develop their takes on it, and for Netlflix, that comes in the form of Pulse. Set in Miami's business Level 1 Trauma Center, the show explores the challenges of the medical field amid workplace drama. Even if the creators don't want that, Pulse has been compared to Grey's Anatomy. However, the show has not received as much acclaim from critics or the audience. On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, Pulse Season 1 has earned a measly 53% critic score. The audience side is not better at just 54% percent. The show has brought critics and viewers together, who normally don't see things from the same perspective. In contrast, Grey's Anatomy...

This post contains spoilers from Netflix's Pulse episode 6 from this point forward.

Yes, this is the same show. Pulse episode 6 opens on doctors we haven't met before performing surgery and it's going south. We'll surely meet back up with them later, but Danny wakes up thinking about four months ago when she joined Xander in the shower. She's beginning to freak out because at over five months, it's her longest relationship. In reality, she reaches over at the empty side of her bed.

Danny's day begins with a visit from Harper and a breakfast delivery. She knows she's buttering her up to join her to check on their father. It's not the only breakfast delivery of the morning as Cole brings Nia her breakfast. She tries to slowing their attraction down since she's a patient, but he points out that she won't be a patient for much longer. It's...

Pulse is a new medical drama series streaming on Netflix that does not manage to bring out the nuances of the genre and restricts itself to the typical tropes of a romantic drama about troubled and confused souls. Based in a private hospital in Miami, the series follows Danny Simms and her friends and colleagues, all of whom have to deal with complications in their personal lives, all while treating patients who are rushed to the emergency room. Overall, Pulse does not add anything new to the table, and neither does it execute the basics of the genre too well, making it a very mediocre watch.

Pulse begins with an introduction to the characters who are going to be integral to the 10 long episodes, who happen to be doctors, residents, nurses, and medical students at Maguire Hospital in Miami. At the center of this set of individuals is a young 3rd-year resident named Danny Simms,...

Netflix’s 2025 presentation, the medical drama series Pulse, is nothing we have not seen before, but it can still be interesting to some because it is set entirely in a hospital and presents the (highly exaggerated) lives of the doctors and interns working at the place. At the center of its plot is a 3rd-year resident, Danny Simms, who has to deal with the many struggles of her personal and professional lives while treating patients who are rushed to the emergency room at Maguire Hospital in Miami. Overall, Pulse is a mostly mediocre series that will be appealing only to those highly interested in the medical drama genre.

After the all of the fireworks that blew up in Danny's face in episode 3, Pulse episode 5 opens with Danny bringing Harper a peace offering muffin and an apology. The sisters quickly bury the hatchet, and Harper invites Danny to a party the residents are throwing. Danny doesn't want to go, and who could blame her?

Before the residents finally get to leave the hospital after the longest shift ever, they jump into helping the victims of a car accident. They presume the male and female victims are husband and wife, but there's much more to the story. Based on the evidence of their injuries, the doctors deduce that the man was performing oral sex on the woman while she was driving when they crashed. Luis also reveals they aren't married to each other.

Netflix’s new medical drama “Pulse” has officially landed on the streamer, and it boasts a vibrant cast that’s ready to clock in for their shifts.

“Pulse,” which was created Zoe Robyn with Carlton Cuse serving as co-showrunner, focuses on the daily happenings at Miami’s Level 1 trauma center Maguire Medical Center and the lives of its staffers.

This post contains spoilers from Netflix's Pulse episode 4 from this point forward.

As Pulse episode 4 begins, Hurricane Abby has finally passed and left Miami with some sun. Danny enjoys a quite moment on the roof of the hospital. In spite of the episode 3 cliffhanger, Vero didn't die. She's still fighting for her life in critical condition, but she's stable. Cruz looks at her daughter with guilt as Soriano comforts her.

Danny jumps right into her next case as a helicopter brings an airlifted volunteer firefighter named Hank to the roof. He was hit with debris on the way out of a house fire and took in a lot of smoke. The hospital is now overflowing with patients with the hurricane gone. Danny leaves Hank in the hallway until he can get scans and a room opens. She's juggling a lot of patients and also dealing with the chatter about Xander's reveal.

The 2025 medical drama on Netflix, Pulse, ends with quite a few twists, although none of them were particularly surprising. The protagonist, Danny Simms, faces a difficult time in both her personal and professional lives, as it is unclear whether she and Xander Phillips will get back together and also if she will lose her job at Maguire Hospital after Natalie Cruz warns her of such an outcome. Pulse’s finale also clarifies what exactly Xander had done at his previous workplace, while a slight window for a possible 2nd season is seemingly left open in the end.

Hurricane Abby continues to rage on as Pulse episode 3 begins, and Danny stands outside the hospital and watches as a lamp post falls on a vehicle. The heavy lamp post crushes the front of the car and traps a man in the driver's seat. Danny grabs a boxcutter and some extra hands. As the men try to lift the lamp post, Danny slashes the tires, which decreases the car's height and allows them to get the man out.

Danny happens to enter the staff locker room to change at the same time Xander's changing, too. She catches a glance at him shirtless, and even though he asks if she wants him to leave, she keeps the peace. He hands over his chief resident badge and they agree to a truce. It's a far cry from nearly a year ago,...

Hurricane Abby continues to intensify as two paramedics, Nia and her partner, take the last call of the night. Pulse episode 2 opens with them stumbling upon a woman asking for their help. A tree fell on her house with her children still inside. They rush to her aid in spite of the great dangers.

Danny and Xander begin working together again, and it's inevitably awkward. But she wasn't going to make a fuss with Dr. Cruz and risk patients' lives during a hurricane to make her shift more comfortable. She's finding it difficult for others to respect her authority and decision making. They're still looking to Xander for his approval.

The hospital staff gossips about Danny and Xander, and they come to an agreement that Xander isn't a "perv" and Danny isn't a "liar," as they say.

Before we get to know the hospital's staff, we join a high school coach and his team on a bus. Due to low visibility from the rain, the coach swerves to avoid colliding with an accident ahead and crashes off of the bridge and into the ocean.

Before the staff learns about the bush crash and gets to work on helping their onslaught of new patients, Pulse pulls us in with some drama among the staff.

Well, they seem to know, but as Harper insists,...

Netflix seems to have checked the audience’s pulse for what the genre of the year is and is coming out with a medical drama to compete with Grey’s Anatomy and The Pitt. The streaming platform’s first foray into the genre will be the drama Pulse, which is set to premiere on April 3, 2025, and will see an emergency crew deal with hurricane victims.

Are you a fan of Grey's Anatomy and are looking for something new to obsess over? If so, you'll be glad to know that Netflix is set to release its own medical drama that looks to be just as addictive. In fact, the show is already being referred to as the streaming service's take on Grey’s Anatomy. That's a pretty big claim, but early buzz suggests it might just live up to the hype.

The show is called Pulse, and it's the streamer's first-ever English-language medical series. That being said, there's a significant amount of anticipation surrounding its release, and people are eager to see if it can capture the same magic that made Grey's Anatomy a global phenomenon.
