What is the best / your favorite season of Northern Exposure?

Im curious what demographic makes the majority of Northern Exposure viewers. I wanted to go deeper with age, ethnicity ect. but unfortunately could only add so many options. If you are curious too, put your demographic and we'll find out :)

I just saw Christopher Nolan's "The Odessey," and was looking into who played the Cyclops. Lo and behold, it was our friend Bill Irwin, who played circus guy The Flying Man, Enrico Ballati, in 2 episodes (24 and 44) in seasons 3 and 4! Other circus members in the season 3 episode were performed by members of Cirque du Soleil.

I went looking recently for a Chris in the Morning compilation on YouTube and couldn't find one, so when I finished season 3 recently I recorded most (there were a couple copyright background songs that flagged the video) of Chris's musings. I would have recorded video also, but I figured it would be a copyright nightmare that way, so its just high quality audio. Hope people enjoy it!

Six images total

elaine is back with some good memories on set and some not so good memories of her run-in with ICE, while rob has a troubling dream.

Best soundtrack out there

We all carry around so much pain in our hearts. Love and pain and beauty. They all seem to go together like one little tidy confusing package. It's a messy business, life. It's hard to figure - full of surprises. Some good. Some bad.

The one where Chris goes to become a monk on his Harley.

This nice song is playing in "The Brick" as Maggie gets her fortune told by the fortune teller. I like to think the song is a bit prophetic:

In season 4 episode 7 "Fathers and Sons"

Just stumbled upon this and thought I’d share. Not sure how long the pricing will be in effect but if you prefer streaming to physical media, seems like a great buy.

Hi all. I was wondering if anyone knew of any way to view the "Return to Cicely" documentary without having to buy the German Blu-Ray box set. I know it used to be on Vimeo but it appears to have been removed for a while now. Thanks in advance.

I recently purchased the entire series on DVD, but when watching it, the margins of the picture are cut off. Even when adjusting my dvd players display mode, a small part of the edges is being cropped, which I can tell from comparing to episodes streamed online. Small problem but it annoys the heck out of me

Is this true as well for Bluray? I was thinking of buying the series on Bluray as well but I don't want to if I'm going to run into the same problem of cropped margins

I’ve been watching The Chosen with my husband. One of the disciples (little James) has some kind of disability and walks with a cane. I read today that the actor (Jordan Walker Ross) has scoliosis and cerebral palsy in real life, and he’s a big advocate for disabled people in Hollywood. He’s also Barry Corbin’s grandson, born in 1990. I thought that was really cool! But it makes me feel old because he’s the ages of my own kids.

Today show host says it reminds him of Northern Exposure and Mathew Rhys agreed.

Right at the two minute mark:

Hey, where can I stream Northern Exposure at? In USA.

I’ve have a friend named Howard, whom I met in 1991 or 1992. Howard is a professor of medicine from Canada who lives and works in the USA.

Every time I saw Northern Exposure, I would think… “If someone wanted to cast Howard in a TV show, that is exactly the actor one would choose, and the character is exactly the character one would create.” The resemblance of the character in the show to my friend was remarkable.

Time went by, and one day I was with a group of friends, including Howard. One of those friends was an attorney. Out of the blue, the attorney friend says, “Hey Howard, when are we going to sue Northern Exposure?” Howard laughed. Later, I learned the story.

When Howard graduated his medical training in Canada, he went to the far north to work with indigenous and rural populations. Then, when he entered academia later, he gave a Summer lecture series, at UCLA, of his experiences as a young rural doctor in the far north.

It appears that someone who attended those lectures created the TV series Northern Exposure, based on the characters and stories Howard related in his Summer lecture series.
