Believe it or not, this show was remade in ‘91 as Stat. Lasted about as long as the original.

>>>Stat (TV series)

The series centered on the staff of New York City's Hudson Memorial Hospital. The show was a remake of the 1977 sitcom A.E.S. Hudson Street.<<<

Stat even has a board here, but it consists of only one post asking for an episode.

It was the same creators again so I guess they thought they’d get it right this time. Obviously they didn’t.

Ok, with your mention of Tony Danza I think I see the confusion. You’re looking at Hudson Street from 1995. Totally different show. That’s a sitcom about cops starring Danza. Your facts above are about A.E.S Hudson Street. The remake of it in 1991 was Stat. Those sitcoms are about hospitals.
