The Resident will be greatly missed.
This was one of the few remaining network shows I kept up with. I'm biased, but it's honestly one of the best medical dramas out there.
When it first aired, I remember thinking, "Wow, this is different." Then I kept watching, and I just fell in love with all these characters and their stories. Episode after episode I got sucked into these very relatable stories and medical cases of the week. Till today, the episode that still gets me every time is S02ep20 (episode title: If Not Now, When?). That episode was personal for me. That was when the show became more to me.
That's what the show is about at the heart. It's relatable, it's current but still very high stakes. I always rooted for Conrad to diagnose his patients on time before it was too late, and it hurt when he couldn't. which I appreciated because as much as this is a fictional show where we want everything to have a happy ending, these characters are human and there is only so much one can do. Whether it was an undiagnosed patient for Conrad, or a bad surgical outcome for the ever brilliant Dr. Austin AKA the Raptor, we got to see the human in these characters.
We got to see these characters grow and enter into different life stages. We saw the good, the bad, and the ugly. I will never stop giving credit to the character development of Bell. I would never have thought that this character whom I loathed so much in the beginning became one of my most loved. And even after some main characters left, they still found a way to balance the show without disrespecting anyone.
I truly love the show, and even though I'm sad it's ended, I'm even more grateful it ended on a good note for all of the characters and not on a cliffhanger. I would have loved that the show got a final season as opposed to a cancelation, but the characters got closure in the end. At least I'm not in some limbo thinking about how these characters' stories should end.
Our main couples, Kit/Bell, Billie/Conrad, and Leela/Devon, all got their end game. And even though there was nothing explicitly said, you can actually picture what their future would be like, both in their personal lives and their professional lives.
Even though most of us saw this cancelation coming, it doesn't negate feelings of sadness or disappointment. Whatever the case, I'm glad that the show had a good run. With six seasons, they also got to their 100 episode mark. Not many shows nowadays can boast of that.
So cheers to The Resident ❤️

AJ took a familiar seat at the bar when he spotted an attractive brunette,causing something inside him to awaken. He knew right then and there he had to talk to her, fortunately for him she only sat a couple seats away from him .
"You new to Atlanta?" AJ called out to her causing her head to swivel.
The wavy haired brunette turned his way as if assessing him, he wondered if he passed her test."Is it that obvious?"

I talk alot about Conllie but can I also say how much I love the friendships they've built with others.
Conrad and Devon of course, Conrad and AJ, Billie and AJ, Billie and Kit, Billie and Leela.
I love how much of a family they all are.
One particular moment that comes to mind is in S05ep14. I love how everyone rallied around Billie to support her. Conrad, AJ, Trevor and especially Kit/Bell.
I love this show y'all 🥹
