Nurse Jackie: Season One(TV) (2009)Comedy | Drama ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Jackie Peyton is a nurse trying to survive the chaotic grind of saving lives in a hectic New York City hospital. Sharp-tongued and quick-witted, Jackie's a woman of substance who knows how to handle it all. With a white lie here, a bent rule there, and a steady dose of pain relievers for her chronic back pain, Jackie does whatever it takes to get the job done. For more details about Nurse Jackie: Season One on Blu-ray, see the Nurse Jackie: Season One Blu-ray Review Nurse Jackie: Season One Blu-ray, Video QualityPresented in 1080p utilizing the AVC codec (at an average bitrate of 36Mbps), Nurse Jackie looks unremarkable for a production shot within the past year. Matters improve somewhat after the initial series pilot (which seems overly hazy), but even the later episodes fail to generate a striking level of clarity. I’m not concerned with the use of DNR since the image still retains a fine level of grain, but the lack of distinct texturing (in most scenes) prevents the transfer from reaching the upper echelon of Blu-ray quality. Digging into the coloring of the show, the cold atmosphere of the hospital setting doesn’t lend itself to a vibrant palette, but there’s still decent variance within the available spectrum, and the occasional outdoor sequences add much-needed life. On the positive side, the bright setting of the well-lit interior shots allows contrast to shine, and I never found a shred of weakness in black level depth. I wouldn’t diagnose this as a weak entry on Blu-ray, but those interested in adding the series to their collection shouldn’t expect more than an average presentation. Nurse Jackie: Season One Blu-ray, Audio Quality![]() I hate to complain when a studio offers a lossless 7.1 audio track, but the nature of the material doesn’t allow for a dramatic improvement through the incorporation of surround separation. The dialogue is crisp and distinct, but remains firmly planted in the front sound stage, with only occasional environmental effects emerging from the rear speakers. Each episode tosses a musical entry in the mix at some point (usually toward the end of each episode), allowing a much needed opportunity for the entire sound field to come alive, but those fleeting moments of immersion simply remind us how plain the rest of the series remains. I wish I could expand further and paint you a better picture, but given the singular nature of the audio experience, most viewers will find it just as uneventful as I have.
