SERIES PREMIERE: This is a warning, not a recommendation. The actors starring in this new medical series, Marcia Gay Harden and Luis Guzman, are very good. In other things. But even they can’t elevate the script to tolerable levels here, in a show about a hospital so constantly overstressed it occasionally goes into the patient-care equivalent of cardiac arrest. If Harden, in particular, makes you want to tune in, in this case I’d advise against it.
