Joel Fleischman is a nebbishy Jewish doctor from York City, and a fresh faced medical school graduate. Hes also about to begin the four year service contract he promised to the state of Alaska, who financed his education. But he just happened to forget reading some of the stipulations in his contract, that has assigned him to the small post of Cicely, Alaska. A town of 215 people that welcomes itsest resident with open arms. As he contends with the daily lives and rituals of these all too normal and trusting folk, Joel just might realize that Cicelys quieter ways are probably more civilized than the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. Made up of Cicelys various residents, patients and friends of Fleischman include wealthy former astronaut Maurice Minnifield; feisty pilot Maggie OConnell; Mayor and saloon owner Holling Vincoeur; his sweet, naive waitress girlfriend Shelly Tambo (whos old enough to be his daughter); intellectual ex-con and disc jockey Chris Stevens; Joels far wiser and very quiet receptionist Marilyn Whirlwind; kindly store owner Ruth-Anne Miller, and avid film buff Ed Chigliak.
