I thought I was the only person who loved and remembered
Medical Center. It is
great to see I am not alone. I loved Michelle's story - I have that episode on
tape and have watched it probably 100 times. I thought it was so funny that Dr.
Gannon was trying to write this speech through this whole episode, and everyone
was making fun of his speech. That was one of my favorite episodes. I also
enjoyed the one where some kid named Kyle stole money from his parents and he
turned out to be deaf because his step mother, played by Estelle Parsons got
drunk and came on to him, and he could not live with the memory of her doing
that. And lets not forget about the girl who was blind - Fright and Flight -
because she walked in on her father having an affair.
Back then, they
left something to your imagination on TV. Those were the good old days. I also
loved the episode with Cameron Mitchell when he had a daughter named Alicia, who
fell in love with Dr. Gannon. She could not walk because her father came on to
her, also in a drunken state, and she could not live with it. Dr. Gannon was so
good to her, trying not to break her heart. I could go on and on, but I wanted
to thank Michelle for her wonderful story.
