Good question, Barb. They MAY have already filmed the first series, but if the thing's a hit like the homebuilding show, they just might go on into another round of shows. Didn't catch it from the beginning, so I'm not sure how it works in terms of how they get their patients. Perhaps they are already patients, and they are just asked if they want the experience to be filmed or something. I get the feeling that some of these procedures are pretty cutting edge stuff, but as I wrote before, I tuned in late, and then was distracted til it was over.

Missed the cardiac part in Houston/Tx.Med.Center. "Bud" (H.O. Frazer, M.D. of Jarvis pump notariety and other things) wasn't this patient's primary doc, but I thought I saw him discussing the case from behind a desk with the attending doc and another one, too. Don't know who the attending was, but Dr. Cooley has trained a zillion of em, so guess this is the fourth tier (generation) of em by now, at least. I would've at least liked to know what specifically they did for the patient and what his diagnosis was.

Perhaps someone else will come along who saw that episode, and knows the details we'd like to know.

Perhaps we can remind everyone next week, whomever remembers it, that is.

Yours, Luce
