INTRODUCTION

What is MERCY POINT? There's no shortage of opinions and good guesses about future episodes. Some say it's ER in space. So far that seems right on. The cast and crew seem up to those standards at least. Others predict a 23rd century General Hospital. UPN's spots say they're 'the sexiest collection of doctors in primetime - not to mention the galaxy' reinforces the futuristic soap theme. Some of the cast members do have a soapy background - 6+ years for Wilson alone. Still other folks say it's merely a thinly disguised Star Trek: Mercy Point (STMP). The last view is perhaps supported by one of the UPN's own promo spots that called it 'Deep Space 9-1-1'. Hardcore sci-fi fans already have filled the chat rooms with comments that it rips off this novel or another. You can read those if you care to.

By all accounts the show is very much inspired by Trey Callaway who both produced and wrote the first episode. It was originally billed as Nightingale One; a name which was mercifully excised. By some media reports Callaway wants MP to be more bloody and realistic when compared to those pristine, tranquil Trekian medical rooms. So far they are making this distinction stick.

On the gender front what we do have is three female doctors very central to the story and a female nurse android. However the closed captioning referred to Dr. Haylen Breslauer as 'Nurse:' in episode 1.1 - so the old biases are not entirely gone. Haylen, Dru, and ANI are clearly cast and written to be a very sexy team and that doesn't seem to please everyone. On the other hand, Nurse Tobitt exhibits hard work, competence, and professionalism with nothing more than good acting.

The show has also been spun in the media as being the first medical drama with an African-American doctor truly being in the lead. Already there are already some murmurs about him portraying a dysfunctional black family; but one can accurately say the pale Breslauer clan is not entirely normal either. Dr. Rema Cook, an African-American woman, is portrayed as a very accomplished scientist whose Dru admires. She and Dr. DeMilla seem to be the doctors with the least baggage so far. Lieutenant Salasaw, another woman of color, makes her appearance in command of a band of mostly white males and having a prominent white male doctor as a beau. Also on the interracial theme is strong tension between Grote and Haylen which Haylen's date (Steven) mentioned to her. No matter how the show develops these racial and interracial associations are going to get attention from many fronts.

Trek and Babylon fans will enjoy the mix of aliens and humans and all the humor and tension those working relationships provide. Early reviews suggest Mercy Point is likely to gather some award nominations for the alien makeup and effects if for nothing else. Batung has already immerged as a fascinating character worthy of careful development.

The October 3rd TV Guide ad headlined the show as 'Saving the universe one lifeform at a time'. We can perhaps expect more of the interesting species-specific medical fascinations that the Star Trek series only began to explore.

Overall the show has high potential and has demonstrated superb standards in both acting and production. The characters are genuinely interesting but will the public pick them over those on Spin City and Felicity? Maybe not, so the show probably will need to move at least once.

Can a balance between the Star Trek formula and evening medical soap be fine-tuned and kept steady over time? Yes, but the mixture of first rate technology and romance is never been a very easy one. If that balance can be acheived some have asked: Should a sci-fi-soap hybrid be attempted? Yes again. It will broaden the show's appeal and perhaps finally we'll have something that both men and women can watch together without compromising too much. We think they've got the ideal team to accomplish it with plenty of fun, intrique, wizardry, and believable emotion.

What are we trying to accomplish here with this site? The enyclopedia format will present information in topical, alphabetical order for easy retrieval.

• Haylen and Dru are born 5 years apart.

• Seems worried about her psychological evaluation which which may underly her past. Our guess is that abandonment by both mother, C.J., and to some extent Haylen may be a root cause.

• Dirty Work at Mercy Point by John Walsh of TV Gen (TV Guide).
• Seattle P-I.
• Mr. Showbiz.
• NY Post.
• Aside from the forementioned formal reviews dozens of chat room comments have appeared since the first episode. Those in the sci-fi community were perhaps 80% negative. Criticisms centered around the believability of a computer virus infecting humans, derivations of plot from Trek or B5 shows, soap opera like lines, and the form of alien species. The more biting lines include such things as 'What's the Point?' and 'Let's have a Mercy killing'. Still a few feel the show needs time to show itself as distinct from others and develop the alien characters as more than just curiosities.
