Northern Exposure
Dr. Joel Fleischman (Rob Morrow) graduated from Columbia University medical school where he attended thanks to a scholarship from the state of Alaska. Though he was slated to work in Anchorage, instead he gets assigned to be the General Practitioner of the tiny Alaskan town, Cicely, to pay for his education. The location is remote, the people are weird and quirky, and Joel wants to return to New York. The show thrived on the "will they or won't they" dynamic between Fleischman and Janine Turner's Maggie O'Connell.
The townspeople try to cheer up Joel after his fiancee dumps him.
Ed goes on a spirit quest to find his parents; Chris loses his voice and must sleep with the most beautiful woman in town to recover it; to that aim, he invites Maggie to dinner. When Joel mocks her charm, Maggie takes on the challenge.
Maggie purports Joel to be her boyfriend to gain her father's approval; Holling comes to a very personal decision.
A charming replacement and Maggie's premonition of death make Joel reconsider his trip to New York.
Holling picks fights with patrons; Ed seeks a once-a-year kleptomaniac; Maurice falls for a trooper.
Everyone except Maurice welcomes a vacationing Russian; Holling has nightmares; Ed falls in love.
Rick's death by falling satellite further enhances Maggie's reputation; Maurice meets prospective hoteliers.
