Nurse Jackie - 2015 Season 7 ***spoilers to date***

I think she's trying to save her nursing license. Suing perhaps to muddy the waters.

 

By the way, this is Nurse Jackie's final season, according to Entertainment Weekly

 

I like this show, it's (almost) always entertaining... but it's time to go. I'm ready to check out of All Saints.

Agreed.

I wonder how they'll end it? Uplifting and hopeful seems unlikely. If it weren't for her kids, I could see her going to Guatemala or someplace where she could continue to be a nurse.

Coop and the blonde is as tedious as ever. But I did enjoy her messy, rented apartment.

This season has pared back. No more British friend. No more love interest for Zooey. No policeman boyfriend. No more sponsor (although would love to see her come roaring back).

 

Well, this season should be different, in some ways, than the others now that she's pretty much been busted with everybody.

That was pretty crappy the way the jail officer put some pills in her personal effects.

Unfortunately, I cannot remember how the last season ended in terms of where she was going, why all the meds, did pharmacy dude set it up for her, and what papers was he signing Akilitus' name to. Can't find the episodes on SHO On Demand or Netflix, or I would just watch the last ep of the previous season again.

 

I am not so sure we can say it's pared back based on one episode.
The Brit friend has been gone for ages.
I believe the cop boyfriend (I thought they broke up) and sponsor (didn't she get framed into going to mandatory rehab?) both resolved at the end of last season.
As for Zooey's BF? Too soon to say.

 

She was leaving town for Miami iirc. She got all the pills from Eddie (pharmacy dude). He forged Akalitus' name on a requisition - I guess to cover all the missing pills (even though in RL that would never work)

One thing that has always bugged me about this show (ftr I am a nurse for 25 years) is all those multi-colored capsules they use for the pain meds. Most, if not all, pain meds are tablets and most of them are white.

 

But the multi-colored ones looks so purdy when they fly through the air!

Thanks, Daniel. Clearly, I had memory-lapsed quite a bit from the end of last season.

 

Older daughter turned around too fast. Looks they'll head to a rosy finish, with "diversion" (that isn't a thing is it?) working and she cleans up. I suppose I'd be ok with that as an ending. But this week's episode was just a little dull.

 

I'm really enjoying this last run. It's fun to see them write like there's no tomorrow.

Eddie has loved Jackie from day one. Does it make sense? No, but what's sense got to do with it? Glad to see Coop is getting out alive.

No need for spoiler tags, the header says "spoilers". How many episodes left?

 

Did Carrie fake the pregnancy? I don't remember that at all. IIRC it was a real pregnancy that ended with a real miscarriage that she didn't tell Coop about for a while.

 

Yes, that is how I remember it also.

Not much to say, but I am rather enjoying the relative sweetness of this final season. I was so glad in this last episode that Jackie resisted drugs which were literally under her nose. I hope they end the series with her somewhat in control. I like Tony Shaloub and kind of wish his character had shown up earlier.

 

Agree. This last season has brought some much needed revitalization to these characters. I feel like a story is being told, and we're headed somewhere, as versus so many previous seasons when I felt like wheels spinning.

 

'Nurse Jackie' Ends As TV's Most Honest Depiction Of Addiction

This isn't a spoiler for the last episode. It a description of the series, to date, prior to the final season. It does provide us with why we, as viewers, both loved and hated Jackie and were so frustrated with the roller coaster ride of addiction.

I will grieve the loss of Nurse Jackie. It was a great show!
