	I love Grey's Anatomy : ) Very nice quiz.

	billmann1:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:29 GMT	2 points
	It's not taking Quincy - it's saying that Jack Klugman was in the Doctors

	iurewhiuerw:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:29 GMT	1 point
	is it just me or is Quincy not working? tried several spellings with and without M.E. and still doesn't work :(

	tcalleen:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:30 GMT	0 points
	Somehow, Jack Klugman now says The Doctors, instead of Quincy.

	nuclearjew:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:30 GMT	1 point
	Yeah, it should be Quincy, not "The Doctors". Also, where's Nurse Jackie?

	ShveLaSoul:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:31 GMT	-3 points
	NURSE JACKIE!

	Kirby:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:33 GMT	-3 points
	Nurse Jackie???

	YankeesJets2310:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:37 GMT	0 points
	Shouldve been Quincy for Jack Klugman. Not too many old shows either.

	lparker:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:42 GMT	7 points
	What about Chad Everett and Medical Center?

Comment below threshold: show it

	Geek_Girl:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:44 GMT	0 points
	you've got Casualty but not Holby City

	HPZ:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:44 GMT	6 points
	I think "Nip/Tuck" is the show's proper title. You can put a "/" in a Sporcle answer by typing a "\|" when you enter it. "Nip\|Tuck" would show up as "Nip/Tuck" when it appeared.

	shani3:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:45 GMT	5 points
	The name of the quiz' contributor gave me a clue to a somewhat glaring omission..but then again, that show's probably way before his time!

	mungar:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 18:51 GMT	3 points
	What about MTC: Monkey Trauma Center?

	biskit67:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:09 GMT	7 points
	Wasn't there a show back in the 70s called Emergency? It starred one of the great show biz names Randolph Mantooth. He was an ambulance driver.

	jmw1122:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:20 GMT	7 points
	jaymc- Scrubs hasn't actually been cancelled. It'll be on ABC in midseason.

I don't think Dr. Kildare, with it's 191 episodes spanning most of the 60s should be counted out...

	jaymc:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:30 GMT	0 points
	My mistake. I seem to remember lots of talk about the show ending in May.

	ras0723:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:33 GMT	8 points
	seriously, no "Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman"?

	drn211:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:45 GMT	6 points
	@ras Dr Quinn is there as a bonus answer

	demonstah:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:48 GMT	2 points
	These bonus answers, when there is no clue that in any way points to them, are getting ridiculous. That said, I agree with the above posters - way too heavily weighted toward shows that could be canceled in a month.

	wartank777:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 19:54 GMT	0 points
	mash being there makes me grin.

	Inyro:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 20:11 GMT	6 points
	Should I assume the USA series "Royal Pains" isn't medical enough for this list?

	Omni314:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 20:48 GMT	1 point
	add english ones (casualy, holby city ect.) or add a us on the end

	Finally, a quiz where there is Third Watch. One of the best shows too bad they don't show re-runs anymore they just recently stop showing them.

	Tom Riddle:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 21:05 GMT	5 points
	I see Dr Kildare and Dr Quinn have already been mentioned... also should consider "Emergency" from the 70s and the brief flop "AfterMASH"

	tikigirl:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 21:16 GMT	7 points
	Ben Casey kind of started it all for this genre...started in '61.

	VeGates:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 21:35 GMT	2 points
	@match, he was on longer than any other character/actor

	lwfc:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 22:23 GMT	2 points
	what about casualty and holby?

	awesomegerbzy:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 22:33 GMT	1 point
	Isn't Nip/Tuck written out with a slash between the two words?

	SixFootFive:	Oct 26th, 2009 at 22:38 GMT	6 points
	Fun quiz. How about Becker? Shouldn't a clinic count as a medical setting?

	Rifsun:	Oct 27th, 2009 at 00:11 GMT	3 points
	What about that classic show from the eighties, Garth Merenghi's Darkplace? After all, it starred the brilliant Doctor Rick Dagless, M.D. and took place in a realistic hospital setting.

	BasketCase3000:	Oct 27th, 2009 at 00:45 GMT	1 point
	@Rifsun. And such quality lines as: "As I rounded the corner I felt muscular and compact; like corned beef"

	LordDrakh:	Oct 27th, 2009 at 01:02 GMT	3 points
	What about China Beach? Nurses working during the Viet Nam War. To TikiGirl--how could I forget Ben Casey?!? Nice catch!
