All Saints is a popular Australian medical drama which airs on the Seven Network, and various international networks. The programme debuted on 24 February, 1998 and soon became one of Australia's highest-rating dramas. All Saints also achieved popularity overseas, particularly in Ireland and the United Kingdom.

The series is set in a fictional Sydney suburban hospital, All Saints General Western Hospital. Its stories originally focused on the lives of the nurses of Ward 17, which was also known as the "garbage ward" because it took the overflow of patients. In 2004, after a year of low ratings, producers drastically overhauled the series, shifting focus from Ward 17 to the Emergency Department. A new set was established, many old characters were dropped and many new ones introduced. With this change, the series also came to focus more upon the lives of the doctors, as well as the nurses as it had in the past.

All Saints has featured popular Australian actors and actresses such as John Howard, Georgie Parker, Libby Tanner and Erik Thomson, as well as international actors such as Chris Vance who currently stars in popular USA drama, Prisonbreak. Judith McGrath, who plays nurse Yvonne Ryan and whose character is nicknamed Von after the character in Von Ryan's Express, is the show's only remaining original cast member.

The progamme is frequently listed in the top ten most-viewed shows each week in newspapers such as The Sydney Morning Herald and the Melbourne Herald Sun, averaging approximately 1.4 million viewers nationally. It is currently in its 11th season, which premiered on 12 February 2008 at 9:30pm on the Seven Network in Australia and on 27 February 2008 at 8pm on TV3 in Ireland.

All Saints' Day, All Hallows, Hallowmas is a feast celebrated on November 1 in Western Christianity, and on the first Sunday after Pentecost in Eastern Christianity in honour of all the saints, known and unknown. In terms of Roman Catholic theology, the feast commemorates all those who have attained the beatific vision in heaven, while the next day, All Souls' Day, commemorates the departed faithful who have not yet been purified and reached heaven.

All Saints is an exciting drama series centred around a busy hospital, with an unusual spin on the highly successful genre of hospital drama. Because All Saints focuses on the lives of the people who carry most of the responsibility, the nurses manly, not the doctors, this show delivers stories from the frontline. The nursing staff in All Saints are closer to their patients than anyone else night and day. They are often forced to make crucial decisions, but don't have the power or authority of the doctors. From their point of view, we get to know the patients stories as well as those of the main characters, through the close relationships and bonds that develop when lives are on the line. The men and women on the nursing staff not only work hard, they play hard too. They're not always saints some days they are cranky, disillusioned, angry or frustrated. The strength and appeal of the series lies in its focus on a group of diverse characters who are instantly easy to relate to: we share their friendships and their relationships. Humour is crucial in such an intense environment, and the overall atmosphere of the series is warm and upbeat, with a strong feel-good factor. Interwoven with the frenetic pace and high-octane drama of life on a hospital ward are the more personal stories of a hugely compelling cast of characters who will be instantly engaging to viewers all over the world.
