I was talking with my brother and cousins the other day and the issue of professions depicted on TV came up. My brother's a lawyer and has Boston Public, my cousin's a social worker and has Judging Amy, my other cousin's an internist and has ER and Scrubs, and I had...?
Lately though I've noticed some pharmacist characters on TV shows. Law and Order the other night had a pharmacist who ended up being the murderer who was diluting the cancer medications of a patient to make money to donate to his church. Desperate Housewives has George the pharmacist who was dating Bree and later switched the heart medication on Bree's husband Rex after Rex said that "Classy and beautiful ladies like Bree don't marry pharmacists, they marry doctors..." I also remember a pharmacist character on The Family Guy on an episode where the kids' dads came in to discuss their jobs. The pharmacist was busy talking about the embarrassing illnesses that the other kids' parents had, and then the kids were like "cool! I want to be a pharmacist too"
Anyone see any other pharmacist characters on other TV shows?
