'The Resident' is tackling real-world medical issues
CNN
According to "The Resident" showrunner and executive producer Andrew Chapman, there was a time when the medical drama took some heat from those in the field.
"We were really the first show to show problems in medicine and to really attack them and we took a lot of flack from doctors all across the country saying, 'Why are you doing this?' Doctors are heroes, et cetera, et cetera," Chapman told CNN. "And we said, 'Yeah, doctors are heroes. Absolutely. But there are issues out there and you have to deal with these issues.'" Now about to air the finale of their fourth season on May 18, Chapman said that's all turned around.More Related News
