<b>White hat:</b> Dr. Michaela "Mike" Quinn, played by Jane Seymour, leaves Boston in 1867 and heads West to set up her own practice, landing in Colorado Springs.

<b>Black hat:</b> This western drama featured no single black hat, but rather a series of challenges, usually in the form of disease or ignorance. Dr. Mike fights a flu epidemic and typhus infections, but her biggest adversary is perhaps the unwillingness of her Colorado Springs neighbors to accept a woman's expertise or advice.<br>
