The Original Cast of 'Chicago Hope'


Here's a list of characters who were part of the original cast of Chicago Hope, when it debuted on September 18, 1994:

Jeffrey Geiger
Aaron Shutt
Camille Shutt
Phillip Watters
Alan Birch
Arthur Thurmond
Angela Giandamiencio

Can anyone tell me how many characters are left by the time Chicago Hope was canceled in 2000?

Whatever it takes, I know I can make it through.

In the very last episode the only two left standing were Phillip and Aaron. Geiger was in the last series on and off, but the only two actors who went through the entire series were Hector Elizondo and Adam Arkin.

Mark Harmon came in season three and was on until the send of the series. Just before he guest starred on West Wing and JAG and then finally NCIS.

I liked Chicago Hope all seasons but i feel the 1st season is when they had the best Roster/Cast

reply

The first season had the strongest cast but it did well in keeping its quality despite the cast changes.


Its that man again!!

I think the best CH cast came in the first part of season 2. Alan Birch, Jeffrey Geiger were still there, and there was the added conflict from Kate Austin and Keith Wilkes. Season 2 was great, especially "Leave of Absence."

And you have reminded me of Angela - that was a fast, weird departure story. Does anyone know the real reason for her leaving the show?

reply

I think I once read that the left the show because she got a part in the movie "Disclosure" with Michael Douglas.

But I believe DEK fired her because he wasn't able to develope her character any further.
