But yeah with the outback being so vast there are actual doctors that have to be flown into the community, so it is vaguely based on truth with that.

Yep, it's called The Royal Flying Doctor Service, or for short RFDS. They have bases in the different cities in the outback and I visited the one in Broken Hill when I was in Australia in '95. I think the show isn't only loosely based on the real RFDS, I was of the impression that it was authentic enough. Of course there was way more drama with character relationships on the TV show. And of course they usually only showed the medically "interesting" cases, and not how a bunch of farmers get treated for 'flu or tick bites. Kinda like with any medical show, really.

Looking at the show now, it seems so tacky, but, hey, it was the late '80s/early '90s. Shows were like that then.

Early Edition is one of my big loves. I even wrote a fair bit of fan fiction for it, back in the day. I've been waiting for CBS to release all four seasons on DVD. Season two came out recently, but I'd like to wait for a 4-season box, if that ever happens.

For Carol and anyone else who remembers the Jim Hutton Ellery Queen series, they are FINALLY putting it out on DVD this September, and they are including the pilot movie, which I saw once in 1975. So, I am really happy, I know what I'm asking for for christmas.
