	fantastic

	According to Judith Harper (now Melnick), chiropractors are not doctors (yes, I remind that Two and a Half Man ep. It was one of the best) Anyway, good quiz

	Show and character switched for private practice.

	Joey Tribbiani is accepted for Drake Ramoray. You guys are awesome.

	NPH makes yet another appearance in Sporcle!

	How about Dr. Spaceman from 30 Rock?

	debbiedoesnothin:	May 7th, 2009 at 06:12 GMT	1 point
	I had such a huge crush on Dr. Kiley. Still do. His son looks just like him but doesn't have the charm.

	Only 10% got Bones? I'm...stunned. I know the original Star Trek is from the 1960's, but...seriously, 10%? Hopefully that'll go up. Anyway, neat quiz. I got all the answers from shows I've watched, so I'm satisfied.

	Mark Sloan is a popular TV doctor name then, as McSteamy in Grey's Anatomy also goes by that name.

	@Edge: Probably alot of people, like me, that just couldn't get it spelled close enough to correct to count.

	milkmeister:	May 7th, 2009 at 07:14 GMT	3 points
	@GaidinBDJ: You only need the surname, and I can only think of two ways of spelling Kell(e)y.

	jaspa:	May 7th, 2009 at 08:39 GMT	5 points
	Uh oh... might need to update the Grey's Anatomy character after tonight.

	cocky:	May 7th, 2009 at 11:46 GMT	6 points
	I think he meant Bones from Star Trek, not the show bones. I couldn't believe only 79% could name the actor on the Cosby Show.

	chambers:	May 7th, 2009 at 11:58 GMT	4 points
	this was a perfect oppurtunity for some green wing characters. best show ever...

	el_barto:	May 7th, 2009 at 12:28 GMT	8 points
	I love how ''NPH'' is always accepted...thank you Harold and Kumar.

	ChipTaco:	May 7th, 2009 at 13:00 GMT	3 points
	I didn't even bother trying Tribbiani for Drake Ramoray as I figured Leblanc was correct, but I was planning on complaining. Thank you sporcle for being all-knowing.

Comment below threshold: show it

	I only watched X-Files a couple times, but I never realized that Scully was a doctor.

	What about Doctor Who?

	Linz:	May 7th, 2009 at 15:08 GMT	2 points
	I would have liked to have seen Dr. Ben Casey (Vince Edwards) and Dr. James Kildare (Richard Chamberlain), two heartthrob docs from long ago.

	Drake makes it but not Ross Gellar PhD??? No love

	Lets not forget Dr. Joe Gannon Chad Everet Medical Center .Man did he look good in those tight scrubs

	The friends one was awesome.

	AntieAnnie:	May 9th, 2009 at 04:59 GMT	2 points
	Lots of fun. Really liked that Drake Ramoray was included :)

	When I saw the Friends one I decided to put in Joey Tribbiani and then make a complaint if that wouldn't work. I love you Sporcle :)

	crazylegs:	Jul 11th, 2009 at 18:42 GMT	2 points
	How did 18% of people miss Cosby? Its in the name of the show.

	Edge:	Sep 25th, 2009 at 02:17 GMT	2 points
	I've created a sequel to this quiz http://www.sporcle.com/games/Edge/tv_doctors Though I change it up a little and have you name the character, given the performer

	CheekyMunky:	Nov 28th, 2009 at 08:56 GMT	1 point
	I'm disappointed with myself on this one, but Drake Ramoray made it worth it. Laughed my way through the rest of the quiz.

	AnotherSchmoe:	Feb 12th, 2010 at 00:59 GMT	-1 points
	Only 12% of quiz-takers got DeForest Kelley from Star Trek? What a sad, sad world we live in. LOL. =) Nice quiz!

	JimAkin:	Mar 13th, 2010 at 01:01 GMT	1 point
	Thanks for taking "Joey" for Drake Ramoray. I'd have come up with LeBlanc, but that saved me time. :)

	Todd1952SF:	Apr 7th, 2010 at 21:04 GMT	2 points
	You know you're getting on towards 60 when the first TV doctors that come to mind are Drs. Kildare and Gillespie from "Dr. Kildare," Ben Casey and Dr. Zorba from "Ben Casey," Drs. Gannon and Lochner from "Medical Center," and Drs. Welby and Kiley from "Marcus Welby, M.D." Funny how those shows all featured the formula of wise, old doctor and young, bold and courageous doctor with a lot to learn. (I think that formula was adapted from the B-movie series featuring Drs. Kildare and Gillespie played by Lew Ayres and Lionel Barrymore, respectively.) Of course, the young doctor in all those TV series had to be handsome -- also part of the formula.

	alan isnt a MD in 2 and a half men

	Doggygirl:	Feb 22nd, 2011 at 02:53 GMT	1 point
	Thank you for Dr. Reid and Dr. House! Scrubs and House are my two favorite shows, and I don't really know many people who know Scrubs.

	TimeLordess:	Mar 12th, 2011 at 09:43 GMT	1 point
	i really think that you should have Fitch 'Coop' Cooper out of Nurse Jackie on here

	IM_WoodgerC:	Oct 9th, 2011 at 17:40 GMT	1 point
	A good one for Friends would be Dr. Jeffrey Rosen (Noah Wyle), I know it would be less well known but the character is a doctor rather than a TV doctor.
