Synopsis by Judd Blaise
This pilot episode of the innovative television series St. Elsewhere introduces the troubled Boston hospital and its imperfect staff. The series was well-known for its mixture of a realistic, unglamorous look at an flawed medical system, intense life-and-death drama, and a cutting sense of dark humor.
