So it is closely following the book? Good to know. I thought it was but wasn't certain. Thanks.
So far, yes. I have seen the first three eps.
The lead of Northern Exposure wanted a raise around the fifth season
Oh yeah, NX was a mess from start to finish. Afair, he already wanted a raise after the first season, but didn't get it. But his contract was such that he also couldn't quit (yet), so he had to come back anyway. So even after the first season already there must have been major cracks between him and the rest of the cast. And one of the other actors also kept away from the rest. I remember that he didn't participate in the Q&As that were organized for the fans, for example.
I didn't know about the writers/showrunner conflict, it seems to have been an even bigger mess than I thought. O_O For all that, it was really well written, especially the first season.
Television is a really tough and frustrating medium to work in.
Ugh, yes. I'm very frustrated with what went on with Doctor Odyssey this season, too (and I suspect so was Ryan Murphy).
