I think this show is called the night shift, and I really enjoyed Freddy Rodriguez character in this show he portrays this character very very well. Keep up the good work. You’re acting is superb!
Yes, they changed the title of the show to “Night Shift” from its original title… And Rodriguez’s work, as usual, is exceptional.
