Life in a Northern Town

Has there ever been a show on televison that could make you feel as warm, or so aware of the human condition, as Northern Exposure? I contend that no show has ever made better use of music than Northern Exposure, particularly with the endings of many of the episodes. The music was very diverse as well, ranging from Irving Berlin to The Pretenders, from Enya to Willie Nelson, from The Talking Heads to Iris Dement. Sit back, watch these clips, and then try to tell me they didn't put a smile on your face.





Transmission out.
