- A Country Practice was one of the longest-running Australian television drama series. It ran on the Seven Network for 1,058 episodes from 18 November 1981 to 22 November 1993. It was produced in ATN-7's production facility at Epping, Sydney. It also ran from April to November 1994 for 30 episodes on Network Ten. The Channel Seven series was also filmed on location in Pitt Town, (outskirts of Northwest Sydney) while the Channel Ten series was filmed on location in Emerald, Victoria. Though sometimes considered a soap opera, the storylines of the show's two one-hour episodes screened over any one week formed a self-contained narrative block, so it did not have the open ended narrative of a traditional soap opera and so was technically a series . Nevertheless many storylines were developed as sub plots for several episodes before becoming the focus of a particular week's narrative block. Overall, the programme "so emphasised the ongoing storylines of its major characters as to make the distinction between series and serial more or less meaningless" . In addition to being broadcast in Australia, it also ran on the ITV network in the United Kingdom, as well as in many European countries and Hong Kong. It was also carried on a variety of Canadian stations, both during the show's lifetime and after. It was estimated that at its height, the show received a worldwide audience of five to six million each week. The show followed a medical practice in the small fictional New South Wales country town of Wandin Valley. The show's stories focused on the staff of the practice and the hospital and their families, and through weekly guest characters - frequently patients served by the practice - various social and medical problems were explored. The series examined such topical issues as youth unemployment, suicide, drug addiction, HIV/AIDS, and terminal illness as well as Aborigines and their place in modern Australian society. A Country Practice also became well-known for a number of guest stars appearance, including Baz Luhrmann, Smokey Dawson, John Meillon, Sir Robert Helpmann and even the Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke. The series is also the third most successful series in the history of the Logie Awards having won 29 times. Brian Wenzel was the first actor to win such an Honour for his role as Seargent Frank Gilroy. By the end of the series Brian Wenzel and Shane Porteous were the only original cast members.

Ook op France 3 werd de serie uitgezonden. De afleveringen werden opgenomen in een studio in Epping. Telkens vormden twee afleveringen één verhaal. Daardoor kwam de show nooit tot een einde. Toch werden soms meerdere afleveringen met éénzelfde richtlijn gemaakt. De show draaide om de staf van een medische praktijk in een fictief Nieuw-Zuid-Wales en had thema's als werkloosheid, zelfmoord, verslavingen, HIV/AIDS en terminale ziektes.
- Hverdagsliv var en australsk dramaserie som gikk på Seven Network fra 1981 til 1993. Den ble også vist på TV 2. Handlingen var lagt til et sykehus i den oppdiktede australske landsbyen Wandin Valley der vi følger livet til både ansatte og pasienter.
