The read

A Balasaur Score of 64 out of 100, drawn from IMDb 6.6/10. The series ran 7 seasons across 170 episodes and has finished, so there is no cliffhanger risk.

Synopsis

Widowed pediatrician Harry Weston is a miracle worker when it comes to dealing with his young patients, but he's more challenged by the other people surrounding him: daughters Barbara and Carol; his wisecracking office assistant, nurse LaVerne Todd; and obnoxious neighborhood mooch Charley Dietz. Thank goodness he always finds a friendly shoulder (and a warm, wet tongue) in Dreyfuss, his enormous dog.
