On this day, September 19, 1989, “Doogie Howser, M.D.” premiered on ABC! This groundbreaking show introduced us to Neil Patrick Harris as Doogie, a teenage prodigy who navigates the challenges of being both a doctor and a regular teenager. The series ran for 4 seasons, delivering 97 episodes that blended drama and humor in a unique way.

Fun Fact: “Doogie Howser, M.D.” was one of the first sitcoms that didn’t have a live audience or use a laugh track, setting it apart from the typical TV comedies of its time and allowing for a more natural, narrative-driven experience.
