I have watched this show and for much of its run I have enjoyed it but lately it has morphed into a Firehouse soap opera and Social Justice lectures - not entertainment - certainly not a firehouse action show with a romance side bar. I watched the first 10 minutes of this show which included 5 different scenes of couples interaction with varying degrees of melodrama - I am sorry but that isn't what I had come to expect as entertainment from Station 19 - the Show runners have gone off the rails and have become infected with the evening news. And family melodrama
Station 19 isn't the only show who's quality and direction has been affected by the pandemic - it is just the latest of those that I used to enjoy. Netflix - here I come - this show is history.
An episode of errors

Warning: Spoilers
Season 1 of this show was great, S2 was good, S3 was ok...but this was the first that I've seem obvious technical errors. There were several, but I'll only cover the one that was like a running joke for 5 min:
At around 31:50 running time it looked like the captain and ex-capt were headed for another confrontation as he tries to mansplain to her why she's wrong when he jumps up, grabs a sheet and says "Trust me!"(and if you could find a woman who hasn't heard THAT before) before the scene fades.
The ep jumps to the B story, where the paramedic pats the unconscious guy ineffectually, yelling in his ear "Can you hear me!?" He doesn't respond, which is not a surprise, but it's the fact that this is ALL that he's doing seems very un-paramedic to me?(I've worked with more than a few, and the moment someone goes unconscious they go into overdrive, not stop to ask inane questions. Especially as they don't know how long he was unconscious before they even arrived on the scene? They should be checking breathing and blood pressure, checking for other injuries, moving dangerous paraphanelia out of the way, so many other things.
But then again they must have read ahead and realized in the next scene he wakes up from just smelling salts (after a drug overdose? Since when does THAT work?)
Anyway, back to the A story, which just ENTIRELY SKIPPED OVER that coming conflict? Obviously she lost whateveritwas.
Then the end of the ep there was more mansplaining why she needs to do things more his way, because she's young and female and therefore less able. And I don't think they ever did call the police on the twits that shot the arrow in their friend's head?
