Yeah... I agree. It was a real shame that Rob Morrow left. It did change the dynamics of the show a lot, especially as he was one of the main characters. My favourite character was also Chris
but I always dreamed of being Maggie, getting to fly that little bush plane! 
And as for Holling Vincoeur...well, I could just listen to that voice all day!

Never heard of it in my life. Obviously, I was busy doing other things in the 90s. Can't remember what though

I loved that show. Watched it every week. I would love to see reruns of it.
One of my fav episodes was when the poor old guy had SAD and went around with a light on his head....because that's me in the winter.
However, I haven't figured out to hook the light on yet without electrocuting myself.

Oh yeah!! I faintly remember that one! Hope it was a "daylight" bulb!! By the way folks...if you look on Amazon.co.uk or Amazon.com or Play.com you may be able to buy the seasons cheaper than in the shops. I have the entire boxset, but due to lack of finances, only bought one season at a time. Considering how many episodes you get in one season, it really is good value for money. I have already watched the entire series twice! Probably will start it again this winter...it's nice to turn off the lights, light some candles, get the fire going (even if it is an electric "pretend" log burning stove
) and be transported to Cicely, Alaska ------ This thread is Archived ------

Hi L
Long time, no see!!
You should definitely check it out. It was a wonderful show.
Basically, here's the premise:
"Joel Fleischman is a nebbishy Jewish doctor from New York City, and a fresh faced medical school graduate. He's also about to begin the four year service contract he promised to the state of Alaska, who financed his education. But he just happened to forget reading some of the stipulations in his contract, that has assigned him to the small post of Cicely, Alaska. A town of 215 people that welcomes it's newest resident with open arms. As he contends with the daily lives and rituals of these all too normal and trusting folk, Joel just might realize that Cicely's quieter ways are probably more civilized than the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. Made up of Cicely's various residents, patients and friends of Fleischman include wealthy former astronaut Maurice Minnifield; feisty pilot Maggie O'Connell; mayor and saloon owner Holling Vincoeur; his sweet, naive waitress girlfriend Shelly Tambo (who's old enough to be his daughter); intellectual ex-con and disc jockey Chris Stevens; Joel's far wiser and very quiet receptionist Marilyn Whirlwind; kindly store owner Ruth-Anne Miller, and avid film buff Ed Chigliak"

I had to admire the one liners from the Indian lady I think she became a nurse in the programme but she had complete wisdom ....
