Lazarus Syndrome

By Patrick Mondout

The Lazarus Syndrome was a medical drama whose name comes from the notion that doctors are omnipotent miracle workers. The series was rather grim and had its share of fatalities. Louis Gossett, Jr. played Dr. MacArthur St. Clair, a tall, very dark, and bald Chief of Cardiology at Webster Memorial Hospital.

Despite the cool title, Lazarus lastly only slightly longer than patients at Webster Memorial, getting itself declared dead by ABC just over a month after it debuted.
