Real Doctor Reacts to CODE BLACK | Medical Drama Review | Doctor Mike 

Was the best video I enjoy the series you are amazing doctor keep up the good best series ever

Nurse jackie next please :)

Pleaseeeeeeeeee

Can you do private practice next

Well TV shows are entertainment first, so a lot of shows aim for drama or comedy and put that at a higher priority than medical accuracy. Doctors (and other people with medical knowledge) aren't the majority of the audience, so it's hard for shows to impress people by their educational value over their entertainment value. And sometimes it just takes a while for a show to develop an audience. Still, I appreciate the effort to make it as reasonably accurate as possible.

Well the good doctor is mostly accurate it really popular

BattleBearGamer isn’t scrubs the most accurate?

I loved that show... sadly the second season didn't really caught the audience here in germany.. it is such a great show and it got me so many times.... for notice i didn't enjoy greys anatomy or others except for scrubs... and code black just hooked me from the first moment... mama is the best :D

Wrath C-140 very true

same gurl, same

Wooo

Sameeee I flunked science lol

Have you watched mark rober?

Dewi Chen oh yeah he’s also good too although he does more physics and math

Ouch, I can't imagine being a doctor made that any easier

He doesnt say anything about that.

@@gort.4667 9:19 they're literally his exact words lmfao

@@gort.4667 oh nooo he was off by a few seconds. Welp I guess we gotta string him up and draw and quarter him 🙄

It's so frustrating to watch a medical drama and see all the staff constantly banging in the storage closet.

Yeah, if I watch a medical drama show, I want to see *medical* drama

I remember that they started some romantic stuff, like Angus having a crush and Savetti banging a surgical resident, but it was dropped pretty quickly, especially in the later seasons (Dr Ethan does have one later, but it was done quite well IMO). It was genuinely quite refreshing to have a no-nonsense medical show, since most of them are romantic dramas first, medical show second.

Totally agree. Too many shows these days get lost in the surface level relationship drama, that they miss out on the more contextual drama (I.E, medical emergencies, patient issues, etc) I completely avoided missed out on this show because I had assumed it would be just like those. I had no idea it was so medically accurate, and actually focused on the doctors as a family for a change. That is really cool. Too bad it was cancelled, but I'm definitely interested in watching what's there.

Exactly! I couldn't understand why the network would do that, it was a wonderful show with great characters.

Loved this show and I thought it was doing well...Amazing cast, and mostly accurate

Wasn't there a ghost or angel at some point? Edit: Don't get me wrong, I liked the show, too. And I'm just reading now that there was a thing about how some of the staff of the hospital they based it on believing there were ghosts in the old building that weren't in a new building they moved to, and that they needed the ghosts. So maybe that's accurate, too. I'm not saying people can't and don't believe in ghosts/angels, I just thought it was weird that the show seemed to be depicting them actually being there.

I remember watching this and it felt like it went off the rails after the first season. At least that was my thought at the time. I remember thinking it got increasingly fantastical and unbelievable. They had a child on a flying plane build a makeshift defibrillator because the mother was unresponsive for christs sake. There is only so much I can suspend my disbelief. Something changed over the course of the show and whatever it was, it lost its charme with it imho.

it doesnt matter if the people who watch it like it only how many people watch

AmeleyL that cracked me up too!! 😂

😂😂

Well she does have to wait for the placenta to come out before suturing. I have observed a lot of C sections, assisted in almost 30 and performed 3 as the primary surgeon ( under supervision ) and it takes 5 minutes posts delivery of child to deliver the placenta.

I was laughing so hard I started coughing damn asthma 😂😂😂

One of my favorites.

I don’t blame your dad! I would have punched that officer out!

And Cops wonder why people don't like them...

Makes sense 3 people were required to stop him after he heard that

That's horrific. Shame on the doctor that made that call and the police that handled it. Horrendous

i dont get people who mock other for that, if there anyone in this world you should have that amount of love for is your parents, i still have a mother gladly and i cant even imagine what i would do, i just know that i wouldnt be myself for a while

maybe it wasnt too popular

Being not too popular means less money from advertising and it’s always about the money. Who cares about quality anymore? I really enjoyed this show and the cancellation means I don’t watch network tv anymore.

300 likes

And for me, better stayed that way. Code Black is something most real doctors can learn from. Long running seasons tend to become less and less medically accurate in my opinion.

​@Mortisha the shows do cost money to make. So if a show is just breaking even or not even breaking even, the business side is what determines its future. Things like what's costing the most money are looked at, are these things crucial to the quality of the show, can any of those things be cut, if not, what other things are potential reasons for the show not pulling in the ratings it needs to maintain quality while also justifying continuation, etc. Just because a show is exceptionally good doesn't always mean it will have success. There's a number of factors, especially when it comes to network television. Day and time slots are huge. Sometimes a great show will come along that can POSSIBLY do better on a different day in a specific time slot, but all the prime time slots on the network on all days feature shows that pull ratings that far outshine the ratings of the struggling show, therefore it becomes impossible to try and see if that show will do better. Sometimes they'll put the struggling show on hold and air it in the prime time slots when the big ratings shows are off season, which can be hard due to the long seasons some shows tend to have, which lead to smaller off seasons for those shows. It's a combination of things, not just money, although money is in every single one of those reasons. To think that networks aren't thinking of the quality of the show or aren't proud of having a high caliber show on their network is just incredibly pessimistic. Networks tend to have to be a bit more cutthroat due to their limited window of figuring out the best course of action to save the show and land it in an area where it will find its audience and as we know, sometimes that just doesn't happen. That's why you see many safe choices on network television with sitcoms and reality TV shows because those are cheaper to produce while yielding results that allow those shows to continue and draw in advertisers. I'm not saying that networks don't completely fumble a show's life, but there's definitely more going on behind the scenes, all of which lead to money or are influenced by it. But that's the influence behind ALL types of media. It's a business. And nobody continues a business that doesn't make money in the long run.

My heart dropped when he said this

I started to cry when he said this. His voice was being professional, his eyes said different. I have so much respect for this man. This is what a doctor SHOULD be.

I enjoyed that lol

tara k same

Olivia Rose IKR

only med drama that is awsome just because of the real medicine and no cheap romances!

So there is a documentary called Code Black as well which comes from the residents in that hospital talking about the influx of patients

Cool! It’s sad they cancelled the show! I enjoyed this show realy!

@@SoftColdHearted THEY CANCELED THE SHOW? Smh. SO STUPID

Little to no fraternization? In a fictionalized confined intense environment designed as entertainment for the masses? Clearly you didn’t watch the show. The head of residents got involved with a first-year and two first-years hooked up...before she hooked up with the head surgeon....and that was just during the first season

That is severely cool. It's little tidbits like that that makes shows so much more enjoyable to me.

Gina Darling GINAAAA

Thanks for saying that Gina, it means a lot.

Gina,Sure his mother is very proud of Him(Dr.Mike).👩‍👦🏆💪❤️

rohde007 An accurate one

Infact there's not one sex scene in the first 10 episodes. And overall in the 3 seasons there are only 2 if I remember correctly.

I remember the first making out scene is in the 13th episode.

It actually doesn't happen that often . It has a code so that if it does happen they can lock down the hospital without spooking the abductor. It would (at least in most hospitals in the UK) be very difficult to abduct a baby

Hospitals usually have ID bands on 2 of the baby's limbs immediately after birth, befor they can leave the delivery room, so they can match it to the bands on the parents to make sure everyone has the right baby. Some hospitals even have electronic trackers now that will automatically lick down a unit if the tracker is sensed in a place it shouldn't be or stops sending a signal where it should be. Even with these security measures, though, they need to have a code they can call so nobody in the hospital panics and so they can discreetly look for the baby without anyone knowing there's an emergency, including the person who took the baby. It's a rare occurrence but there has to be a plan in place in case it does happen. It's like how you would still wear your seat belt and have car insurance even if you've never been in an accident.

JustGame I recently gave birth and before I did, the nurse went through all the precautions they have to avoid it. Such as the color of the name tags of the people working in the birthing unit (so another employee can’t pretend they work there and take the baby). They have the ankle bands to match with the parents. They also have a tracking device on the umbilical clamp that sounds an alarm if it goes near the exit doors or elevators. At least now they make it very difficult.

I would like him to make a video about this!! That's literally my bf's biggest fear so I told him if we ever have a child, we will get a midwife so he doesn't have to worry. I wonder if Doctor Mike ever experienced this.

I'm so terrified of this happening to anyone but all 3 of my kids look like me cloned so I'm good!

9:22

This might actually surprise you, but medical people especially doctors don't usually insist in keeping their families alive when it's due. A CPR more than 30 mins is a sign. Some really old age we don't even allow them to even initiate. Sometimes the best end is a peaceful end. And we have seen a lot.

they still have to do CPR right? unless the patient had sign the durable power of attorney or the DNR.

Leidy Barrios not always if your unable to make medical decisions your medical proxy ( normally a spouse or child unless other paperwork has been filed) is allowed to make the decision to discontinue medical treatment. So if you just show up at the ER no paperwork on file they will do their best to keep you alive until they either find the paperwork or ask you family what they want done.

Rebecca Regan ooh ok, I didn’t know that, thank you.

Estelle Pieterse that’s so awesome of you! My blood sucks. A positive lol

My blood is red!

Stay Hydrated and Mind Your Business Your blood does not suck, it saves lives. Yes, O- is an universal donor, but for each person their own blood type is the best, as well, O- would run out fast, if no other blood group donated. I’m AB+, my blood can be given to only others with AB+, I can receive all blood. However, by donating my blood, I contribute to AB+ getting AB+, and thus not using other type of blood. Blood rules, donate! :)

Thanks to everyone in this thread for donating

@@fooxy13 Donating as an AB blood type is great because even thought O Neg is the universal donor for RBC, AB is the universal donor for plasma since you don't have any of the antibodies that would attack A,B, or AB blood.

MedusasLover168 When I was reading it, he said those lines at that very moment. What a coincidence!

I died lmao

@@Daniii27 OMG go to a doctor. I heard diying is a serious health risk.

Pahu i’m frfr crying right now might be cause i’m on my period and overly emotional but who cares

Naielle Nunley tmi..

PureHits that’s literally has much information as if i said i had a cold

PureHits hush up

Naielle Nunley No it’s not. Having a cold is a common thing that happens and affect the whole body. It’s normal for people say “I have a cold”, no one gives a fucking shit if you are ovulating are not, and it’s more uncomfortable to talk about. If it’s normal, go walk up to someone on the street and say “I am on my period” and then do it again saying “I have a cold”, see the results.

Jennifer Ly MEEEEEE!

🤙*me*

*MEEEEEEEE*

Too bad it has been cancelled

Jennifer Ly I ammmmmmmmmmmm. I can watch an episode 3 to 4 times. I'm obsess. Lol

i had not realized that until i read your comment. I went and checked out all of them, really funny jajajajajaj

That is pretty funny 😂

I honestly never noticed that until your comment; guess I was clicking away too soon. Hilarious!

I hadn't noticed that and now I cant stop laughing haha!

😂😂😂😂 I cracked up real good! 👏👏👏 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 had to go back and watch

I know right? I was so confused when Code Black had no bombs :o

They had code black with the gun man too

"Code black" can in fact mean the threat of an explosion, terrorism, an active shooter, etc. Not everyone uses the term the same way.

Claire Marie Collis different hospitals have different meanings for some codes. Code blue is pretty universal, but others may vary

haha same

It's literally his job to know...

If you talked about, wrote about, and did something as a job 12 hours a day for years on end, you’d also know all of this as well as he does.

Lol he did that with his house review video too. What a savage

Finnaly someone else noticed

I did

Hahaha no I didn't notice thanks for pointing it out lol

Also at the end of the video

I think he is the kind of doctor, i want to become one day. :)

Shay Singh He does it in his other reaction vids too 😂👌

Shay Singh where?

Abigail Andrews The Grey's Anatomy and The Good Doctor. Even the Resident reaction vids. He got the edited poster at the end of his vids.

hyeraine oh lol I was looking for his name somewhere! 😂 thanks

He's in the Scrubs one too, in Dr Kelso's spot.

He means 100 percent oxygen in a mask

Yeah hes not referring to just breathing normally. Controller pure oxygen is needed

Tøp Billion hi! it is true, the antidote to carbon monoxide poisoning is literally breathing 100% oxygen. You know how oxygen reaches your organs? It actually attaches to a part of your blood called the hemoglobin. However, oxygen wont be able to attach to your hemoglobin since carbon monoxide steals away the hemoglobin (like a love triangle where the other woman steals the hubby). Therefore there will be little to no oxygen that will reach your tissue organs. Sooo, in order to reverse that. You need a hella lot of oxygen! I’m actually a 3rd year medical student I also found it weird, confusing, and funny before! Life is so silly 🤣

100% oxygen 😉

Nikki Cruz isn’t hemoglobin the star dust in your bluish veins?

@@nashs.4206 Nice one

@@juliaspoonie3627 Thank you for your lovely comment. Since I posted this, the UK has now changed to an opt out system like in Austria. Hopefully more lives can be saved now

@@generichuman2044 Same in the Netherlands. Opt-out organ donation saves lives!

Finland has had the same opt-out system since 2010, working well. I don't see a reason why any country would not do it that way, as long as organ transplants are not against the majority's culture or religion.

I just turned 16 recently and I've known for a while that I'm going to donate my organs just because of it possibly helping other people live an improved life.

The country I live in recently put in place an 'opt out' system, so unless you actively choose not to be an organ donor, for whatever reasons, then your organs are used for donation. Everything, including, eyes, skin etc. and I think its a really good idea. It means that many people who don't really care either way or don't bother with organ donation are still donors, so there isn't a shortage of donors, but everyone still has a choice and it is easy to opt out.

Never thought about it that way... wow

I'm sure it was done for aesthetic and dramatic license reasons. Realistically it would be a lot more brightly lit.

It’s probably a combination of how they lit the scene and the color grading in how they edited the film. They definitely have full lights from above but I think they have accent lighting from different angles to cast shadows for dramatic effect.

We turn on dim lighting for night shift at my hospital so it's easier for patients to sleep

no its usually brighter

En Venezuela si los hay.

reed900 in a nutshell

LMAOOO

I love their relationship too. I have relationships like this with people at my work. You don't understand unless you work in these type of stressful situations in the medical field. I work in a very busy office, we see around 200 patients in 8 hours some times more. It can get pretty crazy. I had a patient ask me today how I could handle seeing all these sick, terrible looking people every day because it was sad. My answer was you build a tolerance to it. It becomes normal.

Haha I think there was some Romance but no SEX! Yay =]

Anthony Cantos Yeah I was glad😮lol

Probs too good and they thought most ppl can't handle

Precisely

I think Kong Allen meant “probably too good and they thought most people can’t handle it”

Most aren't realistic like this, super accuracy doesn't mean everyone is going to watch it. Personally I don't like cop/Doctor/etc shows because they are so stylized while trying to come off as authentic it feels stupid and hypocritical. Scrubs I liked cause while it felt believable it was also suppose to have a surrel feel to it

Not enough sex and relationship drama for the plebs.

Those types of memories really do stick with you throughout your life. The best thing we can do is to use those moments to become stronger, more empathetic humans.

There's a few small ones here and there in Code Black but not as much as the other ones he's reacted to :')

well hollywood injected some drama in there so they definately injected a couple sex scenes too just for shits and giggles :P
