Starring Melina Kanaka.
Dr. Sydney Hansen, a successful Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, returns to her New England roots in this warm family drama, a surprise hit for NBC when it debuted in 1999. 'This isn't cutting-edge television,' says creator John Masius. 'It's the idea of going home again.' And Sydney does just that, finding fulfillment in her work at a clinic and reconnecting with her family, headed by her widowed veterinarian father. 60 minutes- TV-PG, USA
