| Nurse Jackie | comment |
Nurse Jackie, to which some fans fondly refer as "Nurse House", is a Showtime half-hour drama/comedy about Jackie Peyton (Edie Falco), a nurse in an inner-city hospital in New York City who manages to be both a mega-bitch (with a heart!) and a life-saving Jesus in a skirt. Or scrubs, whatever.It attracted some overstated initial hype in the USA about how dark and edgy it was, although that is true only by comparison to more sentimental hospital dramas. The strengths of the show are the way it combines (often dark) humour with subtle drama, its rounded characters and how it avoids being preachy. Jackie is bitchy, cheats on her husband and is addicted to all sorts of medication, but is still a sympathetic character.Some other characters include Jackie's Gentleman Snarker English friend Dr. O'Hara; Gloria Akalitus, Jackie's mostly no-nonsense boss; Dr. "Coop" Cooper, a parody of the traditional supercool heroic young doctor who always seeks attention; Jackie's Naïve Newcomer protégée, Zoe; Eddie, the hospital pharmacist who was once her Hopeless Suitor drug supplier and friend but is currently playing a more neutral role in her life, and Sam, a nurse who was once a drug addict but doesn't know about Jackie's true nature. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: In one episode Jackie receives flowers from her dad. It is the center of much conversation, and she quickly and coldly dumps the flowers off. Her husband is equally shocked at the news of him sending her flowers. The most information we get about any of her parents is that they "are fucked up". This is never brought up again, and no reference or explanation to Jackie's family is ever made in the series. | |

Hospital Hottie | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_315a122 | comment |
Hospital Hottie: Averted with the nurses, in that they all wear practical shoes, have their hair short/tied up, and do not wear make-up, just like real nurses. This illustrates the difference in work between nurses (who work long hours on their feet) and doctors. Played straight with O'Hara and Coop. Specifically invoked when Coop is deliberately chosen for an advert for All-Saints, with the tag-line "If Looks Could Cure..." Taken even further with Dr. Roman, who provided the series' first topless scene. And goes into bra and panties often. | |

Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Jackie all the time, and, to a lesser extent, O'Hara. Zoey gets her first chance at doing this in season 4, when she ignores Cruz's orders and leaves to pick up a patient's husband at another hospital. She's thrilled to get the opportunity. | |

Downer Ending: The hospital is shut down, Eddie accepts a prison sentence for illegally selling narcotics, Dr. Prince accepts his days are numbered due to his cancer, and after alienating O'Hara, Eddie, and Zoey even further, Jackie overdoses during a farewell party. While the showrunners deliberately left it open to interpretation as to whether or not the OD was fatal, they later stated that everything she worked for was lost and she will never be a nurse again. | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Inverted, with a protagonist who does questionable things. Executive producer Liz Brixius even used the name Houdini to describe her. Understandable as Jackie is the main character, but nearly every season ends with her getting off scot free. In season two Keven and O'Hara find out she's an addict, but she's given near free rein in season 3 until her new supplier bites the dust. She then gets clean, but not by choice. Season 3 has Keven revealing that he had an affair because he felt distant from her, and Jackie planning to divorce him. Simultaneously (and unbeknownst to Jackie), Gloria tosses Jackie's urine sample in the trash rather than giving it to HR, getting her out of hot water at work. The tables are turned in season 4 when Kevin discovers about Jackie's affair and her drug use and sues for child custody. And near the end of season 4, Cruz fires Jackie, although not without taking Gloria and Eddie down first. The tables are turned again at the end of season 6 Jackie makes a serious mistake at work while under the influence, Zoey calls her out on her drug use, she's confronted by Akalitus and possibly has lost her job, and to top it all off, she's arrested when cops and paramedics find a suitcase full of pills in her car after an accident | |

Chuck Cunningham Syndrome | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_c33ba0a8 | comment |
Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Momo, who was a prominent character and one of Jackie's closest friends unceremoniously vanishes from the show without explanation after season 1. His role as gay confidante is replaced by Thor. After being a relatively prominent character for the first half of the show, Sam seems to quietly vanish. | |

Horrible Judge of Character | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_c5385ad9 | comment |
Horrible Judge of Character: Dr. Coop in regards to Dr. Roman. Dr. Roman has proven to be at least borderline incompetent, but, courtesy of an audio recorded liason with Coop, blackmails All Saints into letting her stay. Cut to the opening of Season 6, where Coop, while at least having the intelligence to know that he has to keep far and away from her, firmly believes that if she wasn't working with him, she would be a viable candidate for a relationship. | |

All Abusers Are Male: Averted; one patient is a man whose girlfriend beat him bad enough to crack his skull and kicked him in the chest out of anger. He hit her back in self-defense, but she had superficial bruises while he was vomiting blood. | |

Manchild | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_e150c4c7 | comment |
Manchild: Coop is bratty, petty, insufferable, and completely incapable of thinking beyond anything immediately focused on him. He is also utterly oblivious to how much everyone in the hospital hates his guts and is convinced he's the most popular person there. When his parents announce they're getting a divorce when he is nearing 40, he reacts with sobbing hysterics much the way a toddler would. | |

Karmic Jackpot | |
| Nurse Jackie / int_e3a7d2e6 | comment |
Karmic Jackpot: Arguably Jackie. She saves lives, is considered a good person by most of her co-workers, and as a result is able to hide her secrets almost flawlessly. Eventually averted as O'Hara discovers Jackie's drug problem, then Jackie goes go rehab. By the end of season 4 Cruz has fired her and Eddie and Akalitus for covering up her problem. They're all rehired at the start of season 5 | |
