I saw the episode you mentioned on Chicago Hope. Both my wife and I saw it. Our first reaction was that we hoped my mother-in-law, who has PD, didn't see it. She is in her 70s and also a very strong Catholic. She prides herself in being a grand and great grandmother. I'm not so sure about any "advertising" being good advertising. I've watched a couple of episodes of that show and can totally understand why ER is ahead of it in the ratings. If it were a real hospital they'd probably be closed down by now from all the malpractice suits. Only an opinion.....
