Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman (Season 2) DVD Review
Nominated for 19 Emmys and 5 Golden Globes, including Best TV Series - Drama, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman experienced the rare double victory of audience loyalty and widespread critical acclaim. Premiering in mid-season (January 1993), the hour-long CBS original series illustrated American frontier life like few other shows before it. Like the smash hit Little House On The Prairie, Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman vividly portrays the hardship, struggle, and community kinship endemic to the era. One of the first Western-themed shows to cast a female doctor (as the star of the show nonetheless), Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman enjoyed a successful five-year run, marked by two highly-touted made-for-TV movies… Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman follows the exploits of Dr. Michaela "Mike" Quinn, a female doctor living in 19th Century America when that sort of thing was unheard of. Working for years as an assistant in her father's New England medical practice, the death of her father prompts Dr. Mike to answer a want ad for a doctor in the thriving American frontier town of Colorado Springs. When she arrives, the town is taken aback, having expected she was a man. But Dr. Mike quickly endears herself with the townsfolk and expands her family by adopting three orphan children - Matthew (Chad Allen), Colleen (Erika Flores/Jessica Bowman), and Brian (Shawn Toovey). As the show progresses, she eventually marries local Byron Sully (Joe Lando), and the final seasons focus on the lives of their nuclear family. Sporting an assorted cast of loveable, and sometimes eccentric, characters, the town is never short of excitement or drama… The Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman (Season 2) DVD features a number of dramatic episodes including the season premiere "The Race" in which Snowbird gives Dr. Mike a pony as a gift to thank her for her work on the reservation. Dr. Mike decides to enter the horse in the lauded Territory Stakes Race, but official rules prohibit women from competing. When Dr. Cassidy, a neighboring township's doctor, arrives on the scene, Dr. Mike tries to enlist his help, but he refuses. In the end, Dr. Mike disguises herself as a man in order to participate in the race… Other notable episodes from Season 2 include "The Offering" in which Mike and Sully unwittingly convince the local Native Americans to accept government blankets infected with typhus, and "Just One Lullaby" in which Reverend Johnson falls in love with Colorado Springs' newest schoolteacher, Louise Chambers, while Dr. Mike worries about her reliance on corporal punishment… Below is a list of episodes included on the Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman (Season 2) DVD: Episode 17 (The Race) Air Date: 09-25-1993
