Tonight’s second episode of this year’s NY Med, ABC’s excellent medical documentary miniseries, is the one that first made me cry when I previewed the batch of new shows. Watch for yourself, and you’ll see why – and it’s not because of some terrible fate befalling some patient. It’s because of the love and dedication demonstrated throughout the hour. Tonight’s cases include a couple victimized by a brutal home invasion, and a young Marine who makes it through boot camp, only to encounter an even more daunting set of obstacles. Doctors profiled and followed tonight include a returning “featured player,” Dr. Debbi Yi. For a full review of this series, see Bianculli’s Blog.
