   You didn't watch the best drama series ever on TV: St. Elsewhere.  In    
   the final sequence we see the St. Eligius hospital is actually a    
   miniature building inside a snow globe sitting on top of a TV and we    
   learn the whole series has been imagined by an autistic child who later    
   was cured and became Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman's son or something like that.   
      
    From IMDB's bio of Chad Allen:  As a boy, he played the autistic    
   character Tommy Westfall on the TV series "St. Elsewhere" (1982). At    
   first a minor character, Tommy took on great significance in the final    
   episode when the entire series was revealed to have taken place inside    
   his head. This has given rise to a fan theory known as the "Tommy    
   Westphall Universe Hypothesis," which states that numerous shows that    
   are connected to St. Elsewhere through character crossovers or dialog    
   references have also taken place in Tommy's mind. For instance, the show    
   had a crossover with "Cheers" (1982), and several characters from "St.    
   Elsewhere" were featured in "Homicide: Life on the Street" (1993). From    
   those links, the program can be linked to at least 280 other    
   non-animated shows, ranging from "I Love Lucy" (1951) to "CSI: NY"    
   (2004) (as of 2007).
