Some Similarities to Spelling's Nightingales

Before Models Inc., there was Nightingales, the short-lived Aaron Spelling show from 1989. Both set in LA, Suzanne Phleshette was den mother to five student nurses sort of like Linda Gray was to her five best models. The five student nurses lived at Nightingale House, like Hilary's top models lived at the beach house. Kristy Swanson's character was an innocent from Missouri, Cassidy Rae's character was an innocent from Iowa. Each show had a token minority character, a sexy blonde (and a cool theme song) Just an observation.
