Doctor, Doctor and possibly Shakey Ground?

After "Max Headroom: Twenty Minutes Into the Future", Matt Frewer had two TV series.

"Doctor, Doctor" featured him as a doctor trying to keep a human touch in his practice while being partnered with friends from med school who all were more concerned with the bottom line. Meanwhile, his character also did a medical segment on the local morning news (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJxypBonTSA) which was a perfect vehicle for Frewer's comedy.  CBS moved it around too much and it eventually was cancelled.  Know you can't always trust what you see on website's message boards (ahem) but nearly every post about this show on imdb.com is "Where/When can this be bought on DVD?".

He then got a show on Fox called "Shakey Ground" which Bob Saget ripped off for his new sit-com, IMHO. It was basically "Father Knows Nothing".  Also notable in that the daughter was played by Jennifer Love Hewitt (only she was going by Jennifer Love back then).

If you guys would consider at least "Doctor, Doctor" it would be most appreciated.



I did it for the kicks!
