Side Effects



First Aired in 1994

Medical drama set in Toronto at the Kingsview Family Clinic. Capone played the level-headed chief doctor; Schultz the unctuous, callous doc; Ziegler the crusader; Pappas the resident, killed off at the beginning of the 2nd season; and Sy the good-hearted doc who sometimes had trouble relating to people. Harris played the administrator. Dale was added in the 2nd season as the somewhat manipulative head of the clinic. Sheppard played the experienced receptionist and Mortil the novice. Dane cropped up as the hostile Chief Administrator who worked for the hospital that ran the clinic.
This TV series premiered at the same time the U.S. unleashed two big-budget, critically acclaimed medical series, "Chicago Hope" and "E.R." Ironically, CBC's earlier hit Street Legal (which featured some of the same producers) aired the same year as "L.A. Law". Side Effects, though, faired less well in the comparison. The stories were often flaccid, having trouble stirring up the emotion needed, with largely tepid characters. The cast was O.K., with the actors growing into their parts, but none of them were (quite) strong enough, or charismatic enough, to electrify things...even an ensemble drama needs one or two interesting actors to anchor things. Still it evolved into a watchable, if unriveting, series. Created by Brenda Greenberg and Guy Mullally. Two seasons of hour long episodes on the CBC.
