China Beach - Season 3

1990 | Drama | History | War

Sand dunes and scalpels, surfboards and shrapnel, blue sea and red blood, R&R and CPR... Welcome to China Beach. Part EVAC hospital, part USO entertainment center - this outpost of craziness and compassion introduces us to the Vietnam War through the eyes of the women who served there.

Season 3 explores the most unlikely relationship between nurse Colleen McMurphy (Dana Delany) and "entrepreneur" K.C. Kolowski (Marg Helgenberger. These most opposite women forge a comradeship through the year, starting in the first episode, "The Unquiet Earth," when both are held hostage in the notorious tunnels in Vietnam.

The season also introduces Holly Pelegrino (Ricki Lake): brings a wonderful excursion into magical realism in "Skylark," featuring Ruby Dee; takes Dodger (Jeff Kober) home' and jumps back in "F.N.G." to when new "guys" Dr. Richard (Robert Picardo) and McMurphy first arrive in country, and freshly wounded soldier Boonie Lanier (Brian Wimmer) encounters K.C.
