Produced by Witt-Thomas- Harris Productions in association with Touchstone Television, the series was created by Susan Harris. Joining series regulars Arnetia Walker, Stephanie Hodge, Ada Maris, Mary Jo Keenen, Carlos LaCamara and Kip Gilman are David Rasche (“Sledge Hammer ’> and Markus Flanagan (Biloxi Blues”), wnose characters are constantly at odds wi'h the nursing staff. In “N l rses,” Jack Trenton (Rasche) is a totallv uncooperative addition to Annie’s (Walker) crew. He is a former businessman who is paying for a white- collar crime through endless community service hours at the hospital, and hating every minute of it! Like Fitzgerald’s (Flanagan) brand of kamikaze paramedics earned him a bad reputation on the streets. In order to calm down, he has been reassigned to the hospital as a nurse. Annie (Walker), the charge nurse, is trying to wade through hospital bureau­ cracy, manage her semi-cooperative staff, and still function as a wife and mother. Caustic wit is Sandy’s (Hodge) trade­ mark. Still angry from a bitter divorce, men are not her favorite species and she doesn’t hesitate to let them know i t Gina (Maris) is on the brink of becoming a new citizen in the coun try she has grown to love, and she wants to figure out how to make America better. Julie (Keenen), a very eccentric individual, is constantly being misun­ derstood by co-workers who think she’s dingy, fortunately her professionalism outshines her quirks. Dr. Kaplan (Gilman) is a financially troubled M.D., and Paco (LaCamara) is an orderly who keeps his finger on the pulse of the hospital. The ex ecu tiv e p ro d u cers of “Nurses” are Paul Junger Witt, Tony Thomas, Susan Harris and Tom Straw. Michael Kagan is suppervising producer and Bob Berlinger directs. touchstone Television is part of Walt Disney Pictures and Television. fessionals. Up to 3 basic listings FREE of Charge.
