Now that one was just plain bad. Plus I'm not sure whoever he's working for now would let him do that now. Twenty, thirty years ago absolutely.

Though with modern tech, it could show how to actually prefrom a CW era amputation without ever really preforming one :P

Actually, medicine might make a good special or maybe a series of a few episodes. It is an area that doesn't seem to get as much attention unless you're interested in medicine to begin with. Can remember going to a re-enactment about ten years ago or so and one of the re-enactors took the role of a Federal doctor. Turned out in real life he was either a modern doctor or an RN. Or was it an EMT? It was something I never really gave much attention to until then. I know there's books and such on the subject, but it's one of those areas that doesn't seem to get much focus. Maybe that's just me.
