That was Sunday night, as per always, on Showtime--including the first four seasons, of which I was ignorant. The most recent touching episode has stayed with me, however, even through two great Detroit Tiger ballgames, football (OK, soccer) replays on YouTube, and an unexpected two days of bachelorhood. There is a lot going on with Jackie's addiction to pills, of course, and I can nearly relate, though it's been 36 years since I had a drink. And, her relationship with the oldest daughter can grind at your gears if you've ever had an adolescent in the house, let alone an adolescent blaming you for divorce. But the heart-rending aspects of the show usually emanate from the Emergency Room and this episode was no different. I won't spoil it in case some may wish to catch up. But, Nurse Jackie has taken the place of House, for her ability to reliably jerk my tears.
