"Northern Exposure" is an American comedy-drama Northern television series that ran on CBS from 1990 to 1995, with a total of 110 episodes. It received a total of 57 award nominations during its five-year run and won 27, including the 1992 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series, two additional Primetime Emmy Awards, four Creative Arts Emmy Awards, and two Golden Globes. Critic John Leonard called Northern Exposure "the best of the best television in the past 10 years".

The real "The Brick" is actually named "The Brick Tavern", built in 1889, and is "Washington's oldest continuously operating saloon." Before "Northern Exposure", The Brick appears in the 1979 film "The Runner Stumbles", starring Dick Van Dyke.

The great majority of exterior scenes were shot in Roslyn, Washington. A (now long-gone) wall mural of the Roslyn Cafe is featured in the show’s opening credits and almost every episode. Producers integrated a Roslyn into Cicely’s “history”—introduced as one of the two women who founded the town in 1908—and added an apostrophe and an ’s’ to the mural.
