4. 2 pts- House
5. 2 pts- Nip/Tuck

6-10

6. 3 pts- St. Elsewhere

11-15

11. 3 pts- Hart of Dixie- This comedy-drama (which stars The O.C.'s Rachel Bilson as New York doctor who accepts a job in Alabama) airs on The CW.
12. 4 pts- City of Angels- This series, which aired on CBS  in 2000, was network TV's first medical drama with a predominately African-American cast.  The cast featured Blair Underwood, Vivica A. Fox, Hill Harper, Gabrielle Union, and a pre-SNL Maya Rudolph (pictured above)
13. 2 pts- Doogie Howser, M.D.
14. 2 pts- ER In his final appearance on the series, the character on the right unknowingly saved the life of what former colleague? 4 bonus pts- Dr. John Carter (played by Noah Wyle)
15. 6 pts- Cutter to Houston- This drama (which starred Alec Baldwin, Shelley Hack and Jim Metzler) aired on CBS during the first half of the 1983-1984 season.  A couple of players thought this was The Doctors, which is a good guess. The Doctors was Alec Baldwin's first major acting role and he appeared on the show during its final two years (1980-1982).
