Joel Fleischman had just graduated from Columbia University
Medical School and, at the age of 27, expected to spend
four years working in Anchorage to repay the state of
Alaska for financing his medical education. He was not
prepared to be reassigned to the tiny town of Cicely,
population 813. Life in an isolated town in the scenic,
but remote, Alaskan interior was not what this
lifetime New Yorker had in mind.
The town was full of eccentrics. Joel was constantly at
odds with Maurice Minnifield, a former astronaut and
president of the Cicely Chamber of Commerce. The biggest
incentive Joel had to stay, though neither of them was
really willing to admit it, was his developing relation-
ship with Maggie O'Connell, the feisty, independant, air
taxi pilot who owned the cabin he was living in. Among
the other offbeat townspeople were Holling, a retired
adventurer who owned the local tavern, The Brick; Shelly,
Holling's 18-year-old girlfriend; Chris Stevens, the
sexy, quirky disc jockey on Cicely's only radio station,
KBHR; Ed, Minnifield's young assistant who was fascin-
ated by tales of big city life; Ruth-Anne, who ran the
general store; and Marilyn, the imperturbable Eskimo
receptionist/assistant in Joel's medical office.
In 1992, Mike Monroe, a former lawyer who suffered
allergic reactions to toxic chemicals in the environ-
ment, moved to the outskirts of Cicely, where he lived
in a huge plastic bubble. He and Maggie developed a
romance, but when Joel declared him cured, he moved
to Russia. In 1993, Holling and a pregnant Shelly
got married. When her daughter Miranda was born in
February 1994 she became Cicely's 844th citizen.
The series was filmed on location in Bellevue and
Roslyn, Washington, not far from the locale
of Twin Peaks.
