St. Elsewhere is not trying to be everything to everyone, and that focus is exactly what makes it work. Character-driven storytelling at its most effective — St. Elsewhere earns every emotional beat it goes for. St. Elsewhere is an American medical drama television series that originally ran on NBC from October 26, 1982 to May 25, 1988. The series starred Ed Flanders, Norman Lloyd and William Daniels as teaching doctors at a lightly-regarded Boston hospital who gave interns a promising future in making critical medical and life decisions. William Daniels and Norman Lloyd lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. 6 seasons (1982–1988) gave the story room most shows never get. The performances in St. Elsewhere do a lot of work in the silences between the dialogue. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Viewers drawn to character-driven storytelling will find plenty to sit with in St. Elsewhere. Fans of Casualty will recognise the sensibility here immediately. 6 seasons is a lot, but the quality holds all the way through. William Daniels's work here is the kind that gets referenced in career retrospectives. It makes everything else feel thin by comparison.

St. Elsewhere wrapped up in 1988, created by Joshua Brand, John Falsey, John Masius and Mark Tinker — and 6 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
