Summary: DOC is Awesome!!!
Review: Doc is a good family show. He plays such a great part as a doctor. He's senitive, warm, gentle, he feels one's pain. He shows so much feelings in so many health problems. He's concern. Sticks his neck out for his patients too. Some of our doctors should watch this show.

Summary: Just as Good as ER!
Review: Doc is a very good medical show about a down to earth country doctor from Montana who moves to New York City and winds up working in an HMO clinic. The doctor is named Clint Cassidy and played by Billy Ray Cyrus and I think he does a great job playing the caring doctor with the great bedside manner who has to deal with burreaucratic red tape, etc. I highly recommend Doc, it's a down to earth medical drama that is filled with wit and charm that makes it very appealing!

Summary: DOC ROCKS!!!
Review: DOC is one of the best shows on TV!! It can make you laugh, which we all need these days, and at the same time it can make you cry. It has Christian values which is very rare on TV these days. You can watch DOC with your children and not have to worry about nudity or bad language. It is a very up lifting and GREAT show and I applaud PAX for putting it on the air!!

Thanks!!!

Summary: A tear-jerker that you will fall in love with
Review: I don't know what to say. This was the best series on television. The technical quality may not be quite like Law and Order or other major network shows (though it wasn't noticeably bad), but the writing is outstanding.

This is a tear-jerker series. Beware: you'll really get involved with the characters. The show promotes family values to the core. Not a single episode had a single thing that might be considered objectionable. This is cleaner than some G-rated Disney movies.

The premise is that Clint Cassidy, a country doctor from Montana, moved to New York City to pursue his relationship with a journalist who had stayed in Montana with him. He begins work at a Manhattan HMO, complete with rules, regulations and politics -- things he's not used to. While Cassidy (played by Billy Ray Cyrus of "Achy Breaky Heart" fame) brings a fresh air of humanity to the otherwise impersonal HMO, there's some troubles along the way as he adjusts to his new life and the new way of doing things.

Like in any series, season one is a little on the cheesy side, but it's nonetheless charming. The characters develop much more fully in later seasons, but season one definitely explains a lot of the things that experiences in later episodes are based on.

Unfortunately, the series was canceled in season 5. The foreign distributor pulled funding (it was filmed in Toronto) and they had to stop making episodes.

After I watched the series finale, I wrote the following letter to the cast (I don't know if they ever received it). I'd like to share it here just to show you how much the show meant to me and how it'll grab you as well!

(Spoiler warning)
Dear Doc cast and crew,

The series finale. Wow. I can't believe it's already here. When I saw the ad, I thought it said "Season Finale." I thought that the middle of December was an odd place to take a season break.

As I watched the last episode, I found myself getting teared up as I realized that not only was the season ending but the show was ending as well, and I'm not a really emotional person. I feel like I've become a part of your family, and seeing you all say goodbye made me feel like I was leaving, too. At the end of that scene, I was literally crying a river. They were tears of joy -- finally, Clint and Nancy were coming together (I had been relentlessly cheering that subplot on for the better part of the last season) -- but also tears of sorrow. I will be missing you guys and your characters as much as you will be missing each other. You all have become like family to me as your struggles and victories, your emotions and your lives been mine. You have built a powerful emotional bond between us and you.

Thank you Billy Ray, Andrea, Derek, Ron, Richard, Tracy, Tyler, Paula, Ruth and all the others who have made this show the truly unique thing that it is. While I am truly sad to see you go, I wish you all the best in each of your pursuits.

May the characters you've played and lived over the last five seasons live on in your and everybody's hearts. As you have taught us to do, treasure each and every moment as a gift from God as he writes the story of your lives. And like Clint said, I can't wait to read the next chapter!

Truly yours,
Chris

P.S. Make sure you guys do a Doc reunion show!
