Kay O'Brien is an American television series set at fictional Manhattan General Hospital, which aired for one season on CBS during the 1986-87 television season.
The series stars Patricia Kalember as Dr. Kay "Kayo" O'Brien in what could be best described as a Grey's Anatomy for the '80s. CBS had high hopes for this multi-racial medical drama, but it received low ratings and was cancelled after airing just 9 episodes.
Lifetime bought the rights to the entire series, and has occasionally aired all 13 episodes.
