A somewhat diverse main cast, held the promise for storylines centered on that diverse cast.
But most(nearly all)of the main storylines were centered on the white, mostly male actors. A real missed opportunity.

It took them three seasons to realize they should use Denzel Washington more.

It's still quite good for 1983. Just wish that the writer's room mirrored the diversity of the initial cast.

Look at what just arrived! I’ve been searching for the #vinyl of #GnarlsBarkley #StElsewhere for a very looong time. The album is full of great songs, and CeeLo Green is such an expressive singer. Of all the songs, “Just a Thought” is definitely the most powerful, a beautiful, agonizing soul and a cry for normality complementary to the outstanding “Crazy”, probably his most famous song. My score: 8/10
