Christy

[ithildin]

Finally, one of my favourite series is showing up on DVD. I was heartbroken when Christy was canceled to make room for Touched By An Angel -- apparently, CBS thought there was only room for one 'family' series on their schedule, and for some reason I still don't understand, picked the other one. No, I'm not still bitter. Bleah!

Anyway, I loved the book as a teenager, and Dr. Neil MacNeil (perfectly portrayed by Stewart Finlay-McLennan) continued my love affair for snarky men with lovely accents [g]

I can not wait to be able to watch it all over again. I had some episodes on VHS off the TV, but those have long since died.

I remember that show! At the time I utterly adored the main actress, and yes, the book was love.

Yes, Kelli Martin! She went to Christy after 'Life Goes On'. Excellent actress, and Tyne Daly, of course. She won an Emmy for the role. And the fact they actually filmed locations in the Blue Ridge Mountians made for a great looking show.
