Netflix Just Added All 7 Seasons of One of the Best TV Dramas (And There’s a Sequel Series Coming Soon)

by

TV dramas are incredibly captivating, and Netflix offers a wide variety of them. You can find everything from popular shows like *Grey’s Anatomy* and *Shameless* to Netflix originals such as *Bridgerton* and *Monster*. These shows are full of interesting characters, compelling conflicts, and emotionally charged storylines. If you’re looking for a new drama to watch, a highly-rated series has just returned to Netflix after being unavailable for five years.

I’m so excited that all seven seasons of *Nurse Jackie* are now on Netflix! It was getting hard to find after being available only for purchase, and with talk of a revival, it’s a perfect time to rewatch or discover this amazing show. It follows Jackie Peyton, a seriously flawed but brilliant emergency room nurse in New York City, who definitely bends the rules – and has a secret. Created by Liz Brixius, Linda Wallem, and Evan Dunsky, it originally aired on Showtime for 80 episodes and was a huge hit – it racked up five Emmy wins and consistently got great reviews, with critics giving it an 81% score and audiences loving it even more at 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. I can’t wait for everyone to binge it!

Why You Should Watch Nurse Jackie

I absolutely love Nurse Jackie, and I think you will too! Whether you’re already hooked on medical dramas or just searching for your next binge-worthy show, this one needs to be on your list. It’s so real in how it portrays the challenges and emotional strain of being a nurse, but it manages to balance that heaviness with a really clever, dark sense of humor. It’s a fantastic mix of funny and heartbreaking, and honestly, once you start watching, you won’t be able to stop!

The show’s biggest strength is definitely Edie Falco’s performance. In her first significant role since playing Carmela Soprano on *The Sopranos*, Falco is captivating as Jackie Peyton, a complex character who is both flawed and caring. The series powerfully explores themes of addiction and pain through Jackie’s story, which follows her struggles with drug use, a difficult marriage, and a high-pressure career. The supporting cast, including Merritt Wever, Paul Schulze, and Peter Facinelli, also deliver strong performances.

What Do We Know About the Nurse Jackie Revival?

Good news for fans of : a continuation of the series is coming to Prime Video! The new show, written by Liz Flahive and Abe Sylvia, will pick up a decade after the original ended. Edie Falco will reprise her role as Jackie, who is now trying to navigate life without her nursing license. According to sources, she’ll be facing new challenges as she attempts to do the right thing, even when it’s much harder – and less appealing – than doing wrong. This revival was first announced last May, though another planned sequel to has since been canceled.

I’m still waiting to hear who else will be joining the cast, and honestly, I’m really hoping they announce a premiere date soon! We’re all eager to find out when we can finally watch it.
