Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman (Season 4) 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 Cent ury 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 4) DVD features a number of dramatic episodes including the season premiere A New Life in which Dr. Mike and Sully return to Colorado Spr ings following their honeymoon. Now they must learn to adjust to a changing township which is marked by its first ever bank, built by Bostonian Preston A. Lodge III Other notable episodes from Season 4 include One Touch of Nature in which Dr. Mike struggles with the possibility that she may be unable to conceive, and Woman of the Year in which Dr. Mike is embarrassed to be nominated Woman of the Year (because she's shy when it comes to boasting about herself)
