I worked 9 years in a very large state psychiatric hospital, and 26 years with a county psychiatric emergency/intake team. I only saw a few episodes of Wonderland before it disappeared. It captured the essence of my job in a remarkable way. Just like cops hate cop shows for the ridiculousness, all psychiatric based movies or shows are just plain stupid. This was an exception. Now, 20 years after it left, I would love to see it again, to see if my initial impression was correct.
