(CBS Primetime, 1969 - 1976)
[although medical dramas had been a staple of radio and TV
from their earliest days, this series began a trend toward
showing physicians more in the context of their professional
lives with an ensemble cast; rather than focusing on one hero
like "Doctor Kildaire", "Ben Casey", "Marcus Welby", et al;
The cast included TV veterans James Daly and Jayne Meadows
along with newcomer Chad Everett]
