Doc

I stumbled upon "Doc" after watching "Little House..." on the Hallmark Channel and was pleasantly surprised. This show worked for Billy Ray and I found it believable. The show was well written, the cast was well suited, and acting decent. TV needs more of this type of programming, that makes one feel good and is positive. Watching this show made me feel refreshing, invigorated and reminded me to believe in the goodness of people. It was nice to watch this uplifting, positive story and not the hateful, violent, cynical material and bad screenplay and writing that now fills TV programming in recent years. TV these days caters to the youngest TV audiences and sacrifices quality in favor of sensationalism and violence.

The show is the only one I like that my dad also likes, for what ever reason he's not as fond of Sue Thomas. My mom likes both but doesn't watch them very often. I do as much as possible. If a book series ever comes out or they come in completely (all seasons) on DVD I want to collect them as soon as possible, for both Sue Thomas and Doc. My only problem is I wish Clint and Nancy would get together and get married and then we could see some of their life as a married couple (maybe it shows something in the last episode?).Also how Clint proposed, a wedding, any kids(if there are any of these), and info into what each of them do. Like does Raul become a doctor, cop, teacher or what and does Ms. Dewit ever marry, what do the Doss's do, etc. The only clues I have to the end aren't entirely reliable, besides I don't want to know until I watch it. (But I'm curious). Also is Doc based on a true story (?), I know the same people to put it together also did Sue Thomas and thats based on a real story.

A couple of years ago, I went to Delaware on vacation, and nothing was on TV one Sunday night. So, I watched a show I had never watched before...Doc.

Since then, I have been watching obsessively. I love love love the show, my favorite character is Nancy, she kind of reminds me of myself. I'm always ready with a comeback. I also love Tippy. Gotta love a blonde. Thanks to PAX for making such an AWESOME show! My mom is thrilled because most of the things I watch aren't great for my younger sisters to watch with me. Its great that on a Sunday night, there is something I can watch that my mom isn't mad at me for.

My whole family loves this - from the 5 year old to Dad!! We all think it's great and are SO grateful to have a quality show on TV that we all can enjoy! The characters actually have "character". They are more realistic and wholesome than most any other characters you see on TV. Thank you PAX!

Is it earth shattering TV? Not really, but it has great, gentle, loving characters and stories. Shows like this that show characters that have a good moral compass, are a dying bread. In my opinion shows like this are needed more now than ever - what's wrong with showing life and people the way things COULD be if we all tried a little harder to be nice. If you need some inspiration and "uplift" for your soul, watch this.
