About

St. Elsewhere is an American medical drama black comedy television series that originally ran on NBC from October 26, 1982, to May 25, 1988. The series starred Ed Flanders, Norman Lloyd and William Daniels as teaching doctors at an aging, underrated Boston hospital who give interns a promising future in making critical medical and life decisions.

This blackly humorous drama was set in St Eligius' Hospital, Boston; an institution so looked down upon by the medical establishment that it had been given the derisive nickname of 'St Elsewhere'. Characters included kindly Dr Donald Westphall (Ed Flanders), irascible Dr Mark Craig (William Daniels) and the roguish Dr Ben Samuels (David Birney).

The final episode of the series revealed that the entire series had existed entirely in the imagination of Tommy, the autistic son of Dr Westphall. As the series had crossed over with so many shows - including Homicide: Life on the Street, which was itself connected to many TV series - it could thus be construed that all the connected series exist inside Tommy Westphall's mind. Hence this website!
