ER

[Disco]

anyone watch last night? talk about drama. ER is still one of the best shows on television.

[Hartski]

*yawns*

I can't believe that show is still on. Chicago Hope was so much better and it was cancelled.

[Disco]

never watched chicago hope. couldn't have been better that ER if it got cancelled.

[Strangely Brown]

I just recently got into ER and I did somewhat enjoy the show last night, though I want them to get back to the darn hospital.

Chicago Hope was good too.

[Hartski]

Chicago Hope had THE hottest redhead nurse I've ever seen. Nothing ER has could match her.

[Disco]

one good thing about this show is that it can survive when a major cast member leaves. and each new member instantly becomes a major part in the show. everything is kept moving along no matter what happens. it's just started it's 10th season and is renewed for two more years.

[Gem]

ER must be good. It has such a huge folowing and has been on forever. I've never really gotten into it, but I can appreciate it must have a high level of writing.

[HalJordan84]

I saw it, it was good. I love ER. Been watching it for about three years regularly, and i used to watch the reruns on tnt, so ive seen almost every eppie ever done.

[vnea36kr]

I love ER!
wow! I'm glad it got renewed for 2 more years! Thursday's episode was really good....can't wait till next week!

[Jodie98deg]

ER is one of my fave shows...I can never miss an episode.

It's currently out of season here.

Disco and any other ER fan...what's your favourite ER episode or storyline? Mine would be Dr. Green's passing. I cried buckets. The whole setting, the music, everything ~sniffles~ Didn't think the show would be the same without him but it has remained up there for me.

It will be a sad day if/when it gets cancelled.

[vnea36kr]

The episode with Dr. Green dying was really sad...it was definitely one of the best episodes and one of the most memorable....but I didn't want him to die!

hmm...it's hard to choose just one episode. There's so many I like. I thought last year's season premiere where they were quarrentined in the hospital was really good. It was really exciting!

[MadCow]

The episode when Dr. Green died had me sobbing for an hour afterwards I was so emotionally invested in the character. After he had gone I couldn't really be bothered and then it turned into the John and Abby show and I switched off. It's a real shame because I used to be glued to it :(

MadCow

[keekee8000]

I really like ER too. I've watched it since the beginning. And I'm pretty happy Goran Visnjic (Luka) is still alive and gracing us with his hotness. (There was a scare in the season premiere)

[Jodie98deg]

I'm pretty happy Goran Visnjic (Luka) is still alive and gracing us with his hotness

Amen to that!! I don't like the way they changed his character last season though...it was too much of a change from the sweet caring guy he used to be. What were they thinking...GRRR!!

My fave episode was the Dr. Green one but the most shocking was the one where Dr. Romano lost his arm. I really wasn't expecting anything like that to happen and I remember as I watched I gasped and covered my mouth...totally shocking.

And yes I know it's only a show but sometimes these shows suck us right in haha

[Disco]

my favorite i think dates back to year season 1 or 2. i even remember the name of the episode. "loves labor lost" or something like that. it's the episode that had every pregnant woman calling her doctor the next day.
dr. greene had to help with birth of a baby. actually he was doing it alone. for some reason the OB's were busy. anyway the woman had something called pre-eclampsia (sp?) which dr. greene did not detect. the mother died during childbirth. at the end you see the father holding the baby sitting by the mothers bed. then dr. greene gets on the train. the last scene is of him crying.

[nexgod]

gah i saw ER and thought Endoplasmic Reticulum

but onto the show, my fave is Carter or that woman

[Disco]

or that woman, hahahaha which one hun??? you mean the one that likes him, Abbey. she used to be on the show News Radio.

[nexgod]

not Abbey :p

That Chinese woman :p yeh i dont watch it that often cos im far behind

[Disco]

ahhh ming-na who plays deb chen.

shhhhh...............click here (http://www.tvtome.com/tvtome/servlet/PersonDetail/personid-32263)

[nexgod]

yeh i was thinking Ling or Ming :D

Mulan 2?? good grief

gee 1995 lol!!!

[Jodie98deg]

< Mulan >

Nexgod you're too funny http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/4_1_4.gif

[Dukegirl]

I looooved those five episodes of season 6, you know, when Alan Alda guest stars as Doc Gabriel Lawrence. Alan Alda as a doctor, that immedeately reminded me of his M*A*S*H days. My favourite characters are Carol Hathaway and Mark Greene - and now that both are gone I simply stopped watching!

[Disco]

was upset that alan alda didn't get the emmy for his guest appearance on the show. he did a wonderful job.


My favourite characters are Carol Hathaway and Mark Greene.
they were my favorites too.

btw the character dr. romano had his arm amputated. the other day they had an episode on and i could swear that the actor paul mcCrane was missing an arm. i even started searching the internet too see if it was true. well in this weeks TV guide they mention some of the special effects they now do in television shows. there is a company called stargate digital which has developed the technology to make his arm simply disappear leaving a little stump. i was completely fooled because it loods so real. in fact every outdoor scene showing the city chicago (where the show is to take place) is in fact fake.

[Oracle]

*giggles* Are you KIDDING, Disco? i watch it ALLLLLL the time, of course I saw it. It was pretty damn good wasn't it? Heh.. *pets it* Too bad this will more than likely be the last season...

Heh, as for favorite characters.. I'd have to say Dr. Weaver and Rocket Romano. heh.. McCrane's SUCH a good actor.. so is Laura Innes. *hugs her* I think she's so pretty.. heh.. *runs off somewhere*

in my opinion that nurse that came onto the show the other night far outdoes her and any female character er has ever had...just thought about it, i think part of the appeal was that she reminded me of chloe, you know kind of snarky....and she was pretty hot too.

[Disco]

actually i think the show is signed up for another two years for a total of 12 :)

[Oracle]

*blinks* Ruh-- REALLY??? :cool: YAAAAAAAAAAY! *runs off to check with her ER list just in case*

[Dukegirl]

The Mists of Avalon will be on TV this Friday, it is split up in four parts of sixty minutes and I'm going to tape them all. Julianna Margulies is Morgaine. I have the song featured in this movie, Loreena McKennit's haunting 'The Mystic's Dream'. It gives you the chills, really. Imagine endless green hills and meadows, fog and castles and you're in Avalon... I hope it's a good movie. Has anyone seen it? (Earlier this year I've seen Julianna in Ghost Ship). And Anthony Edwards is going to play Brains in the Thunderbirds movie - yippeee!

ER for 12 season or what? I do hope they let Alan Alda's character return for a couple of episodes!

[Disco]

gonna be a good one tonight. anybody watching?? somebody is supposed to die. any guesses??? i say it's going to be abby. not that i want maura tierney to leave the show :(

[vnea36kr]

I'm definitely watching!!

OMG!! someone's gonna die?!!!! nooooooooooo!
I'd say Dr. Romano

[Disco]

oooh, was just going to change my mind and say romano. especially since the recap was all about him.

wow!! how ironic was that. he goes outside to get away only to have it fall on him.

[vnea36kr]

whoa!! That was an awesome episode! Definitely one of favourites of all time! :)

yeah, that was pretty ironic how it happened. He gets off the roof to avoid the helicopter and then it falls on him.

[Disco]

the funny thing is that nobody in the hospital knows what happened to him.

[vnea36kr]

haha....I know! there were other staff that got hurt and nobody thought to find out where he is!

I still can't believe that guy (Morris?) just sat there the whole time! He's so useless!

[Oracle]

I haven't a CLUE.... But I think it could be that new Indian resident... MAYBE.. I dunno.. Her or... someone else. :lol:

[i luv tom welling]

lol, I've watched ER for the past 3 or 4 episodes (and sparsely before) and I don't think I can stomach it anymore :p I kept watching last night because I wanted to see everyone's reactions to Romano's death, but it never happened. Poor guy, he just needed to be loved :p

[Cole]

So it was ramono.
I thought it was him.
I only caught the tailend of the epi and when I saw them asking,"Wheres ramono?", I thought it was him.

[Oracle]

*nods* As soon as the story started and it started focusing on Ramano.. WOO.... I'm guessing the chopper charred his body to ash since they never pulled it out. *shakes head* It's a shame... I'm really going to miss McCrane...

[Cole]

In the last scene when they were lifting the chopper up it seemed like there was a body under it, but I may be mistaken.

[Disco]

morris is his name?? what the hell is he doing there?? he does absolutely nothing. he doesn't even know anything. why doesn't anyone just throw him out?? what a jerk.

have to feel bad for romano. he had a good heart but just didn't know how to show it. i think he had fears of being rejected or something so he just didn't get close to people.

[queenbess]

I haven't watched my tape of the episode yet, but I was spoiled, so I knew about Romano. I will really miss the character and Paul McCrane. He always brought the snark. And I always wanted at least an exploration of the Romano/Corday relationship. :(

[funmedic]

It was a total shock when Romano died. Man he has bad luck with helicopters! I'm sad to see him go. I just don't know why they killed him off. He was one of the last really good characters on ER. They should have killed off one of the boring med students.

Just think... If Romano hadn't busted that guy for smoking pot, then he would have already been in the hospital when the plane crashed. I guess timing is everything.

[Oracle]

Man... you've said it!

just another reason to get rid of morris. he killed romano.

ROMANO DIES!!! OMG this is shocking!! :( We don't get the new season until next year so I didn't have a clue.

[Clarkie76]

I was so disappointed and shocked that Ramono was the chosen victim for this past espiode. I mainly watched ER because of him. I loved his blunt and realistic candor that irritated others. I don't think I'll be watching ER after the next eppy. Poor Ramono. He was a lonely man who really wanted others to be the best they could be without being dependent on others to solve their problems, and understand that life isn't fair or peachy keen. Frankly, all the other doctors bore me. The only other character I like is the flight nurse who is married to Lewis.

[Oracle]

*nods* I agree with you. I don't think I'll be running for the TV on Thursday nights so much anymore.....

Oh well...

[vnea36kr]

Did anyone watch ER this week?
Pratt was absolutely hilarious in that episode, I couldn't stop cracking up! :)

But I did feel bad though, no one seemed to care that Romano's dead. Everyone seemed so happy that he's gone. Poor guy, I'm gonna miss him, but I still love the show.

[rumpuso]

What'd you guys think of the episode a few years back where Kelli Martin's character and Dr. Carter were stabbed - Kelli Martin's character died? That was a creepy, powerful episode.

[MisterSpider]

Personaly, I think that the show will be better without Ramono, I did not like him, I disliked him so much that as soon as I saw him walk outside the hospital I was like.. "The chopper is gonna fall on him" (because in the previews they show the chopper crashing in the Ambulance bay, so I knew it was going to fall atleast) and then when I see the chopper fall right at him I couldn't help but go "It does fall on him!" and my mom were laughing so like 5 minutes, we are evil people, I know, haha.

That was an intense episode. I was completely shocked when it happened and was sad to see her get killed off. I sat there with my mouth hanging open for quite sometime.

[Disco]

i rmember that episode. was also in shock. but my favorite by far is an episode called "loves labor lost". i think it was either the first or second season. i might have already talked about it on this thread. anyway its the episode where Dr. Greene had to deliver a baby and he misdiagnosed something which resulted in the mom dying. the episode ends with him sitting on the train and crying.

[Disco]

the end of tonights christmas episode had me crying. the poor kid. he may never wake up. the giving of all those christmas toys was very touching.

[vnea36kr]

yeah, the part where they decorated the place and gave out the gifts was very nice. It really is fustrating though to see Carter trying so hard to help that family, but in the end, he couldn't help the boy.

[SWJaggy]

Last night's episode of JAG was awesome. I cannot believe that Carter is going to be a father!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Disco]

poor abbey. she never wanted carter to leave and now he's coming back with another woman who is carrying his child.

[Vatusia]

Speaking of Romano, I remember when Kellie Martin's character was dying of a pulmonary embolism (even diagnosed herself, bless her lil heart!) she expired immediately after Romano came in and told her, 'Don't worry - we've got too much money invested in you to let you die!' :p :lol: One of those darkly comic moments that Romano did so well.

I missed his demise - I hope I get to see it in reruns instead of having to watch Greene's death over and over and over (what a depressing storyline that was). :(

[Disco]

remember "the letter"?? when they found out the dr. greene died by reading the fax that was sent.

[vnea36kr]

omg! the letter! that was so sad!!
I was crying that episode when he died.

[Disco]

great epi tonight. still one of the best shows on television. they sure have gotten a lot more graphic than they used to be.

[vnea36kr]

yeah, the part with the kid's arm was really cool.
I feel really bad for Pratt though.

[luthorsmentor]

i would feel bad for pratt if i didn't think that him getting played by gregs sister was so funny...on the kids neck, he should have waited though.

[rumpuso]

Would someone mind giving me a "cliff notes" version of the episode? My daughter isn't feeling well so I missed this episode.

[Disco]

HERE (http://www.nbc.com/ER/episode_guide/214.html) is the official episode description. more spoilers below (you have to highlight them with the mouse)

in the end dr. pratt had to insert a breating tube in the osteoperosis kid and accidently broke the kids neck in the process. the missing valium was found in dr. weavers lab coat. dr. pratt is dating dr. gallants little sister.

[Vatusia]

Wait! Why don't I remember the letter? Tell me what happened?

[Disco]

dr. greene takes his family to hawaii for a vacation just before he dies. he faxes a letter to the ER. i think it's dr. carter to reads it to everyone who is around.

Dear ER gang,

So, here I am, out on the beach at 5:30 in the evening. Elizabeth is sitting with me, drinking juice, but I'm all about the Mai Tais. The sun's going down. Rachel is dipping Ella's toes in the ocean, as they head off on a quest for the perfect seashell. And weirdly enough, I find myself thinking, you know what would make this moment complete? Some jogger dropping to the sand short of breath, so I can swoop in with a piece of bamboo to perform a nice, clean intubation, fix the guy up and send him off with a good, simple dispo. Which I guess is my way of saying that I miss you all and that dingy place. Lots of times I thought I should have chosen a different career, or gone into private practice - something easier, less grinding, more lucrative, but since I've been gone, I realize that outside of what I'm doing right now - sitting on this beach with my family - staying at County all those years, doing what we do on a daily basis, was the best choice I ever made. I know what you're thinking, but trust me, it's not so hard to appreciate once it's over. As much as part of me would like to believe that the ER can't go on without me, a smarter part realizes that you're an incredible group of doctors and nurses, who approach every day with such skill, compassion and thoroughness that, when it comes to patient care, I know my absence will hardly be felt. As for friendship and camaraderie - well, that's another matter. In order to leave, I had to go the way I did, but I wouldn't want any of you to think that that meant I didn't value each of you and the years that we worked together. Or that I didn't have things of a more personal nature to say. Most of you, I think, have an idea of what those things might be without me writing them down, but still...

Ella is laughing and waving for me; Rachel's found her shell...

they thought this was the end of the letter until dr. carter finds a second page sent by dr. corday.


Mark died this morning at 6:04 am. The sun was rising. His favorite time of day. I sent this on so that you might know he was thinking of you all and that he appreciated knowing you would remember him well.

Elizabeth Corday

[Anya]

aww!! now that was soo sad!!!! :(

[SWJaggy]

Thanks for that letter Disco.


Yesterdays ER was sad, seeing all of those babies in the NICU. I think its great that Carrie and Sandie had a son. Abby is going to make one hell of a doctor.

[Disco]

looks like we're in for some good episodes. all new ER :)

[SWJaggy]

We sure are in for some good episodes of ER. I have seen the trailer and I can't believe that Susan is __________ (don't want to spoil it for those who don't know)
But I think that its good for her.

I love this show. I think part of the reason why I decided to choose a career in the medical field was because of it.

[vnea36kr]

yeah, I saw the commercial for it and I can't wait to see it!!
4 new episodes starting tonight...woohoo!! :)

[vnea36kr]

another great episode tonight. I felt really bad for that family though and the man who had the heart attack.

Sam was great in that episode! haha...the way she handled Morris was great! and I loved the look on Kovac's face when she hit that guy! :D

[Dukegirl]

I think I'm developing a crush on dr Kovac :p
What should I do next?

[vnea36kr]

haha...watch more ER :p

[Disco]

my favorite right now is abby.

[Dukegirl]

I like Abby too! :D My list of favourite ER characters (no particular order)

Mark Greene
Abby Lockhart
Luka Kovac
Kerry Weaver
Lucy Knight
Dr Pratt
Dr Gabriel Lawrence (I know he was only a guest star...)

[vnea36kr]

Sam Taggart is a great character too

[sb2]

I have a strong feeling Carter's pregnant girlfriend Makemba will get killed in the Congo.

[Disco]

yep

[vnea36kr]

oh well, I don't really like her anyway :p

[Miss Lane]

The helicopter crash episode has just aired in the UK and last i saw of Remano was the copter hurtling down towards him. Talk about bad luck. So did he manage to dive out the way in time or did he get squished? It wasn't made clear weather he was killed or not. Sorry but i have issues with patience and even though he wasn't the nicest of people he was still entertaining and i didn't want to see him written out.

[Disco]

the helicopter fell right on him.

the character of romano was very well acted. will miss him.

[Miss Lane]

Thanks for clearing that up for me :) . It was repeated again last night and only then did i notice the rescue people looking at what was underneath the copter with interest and a few camera's were flashing too. Wasn't much left of him from what i saw. The person i was watching it with said they refused to ever watch it again now he's been killed off :\ Romano was his favourite character. Oh well :cool:

[Dukegirl]

Yeah I'll miss him too - last night there was the episodes "With A Little Help from My Friends" and the best line of the episode must have been Romano saying "Has anyone checked whether there are medical schools in Croatia?" after a disgruntled Kovac left the M&M room.
Ahhh his sarcasm, that's what I'll miss most.

[Disco]

Noah Wyle might be leaving the show.

[Oracle]

well, we know now he WILl be leaving the show.. *sniffles* his last season. I'm so sad... :(

[Summers]

Lucy Knight


i cried my eyes out when she died. Lucy rocked well so did Kellie Martin. i've been a fan of her since her time on Life Goes On. it was so sad when Romano actually showed some emotion, and he keeps trying to bring her back but he cant. and he's left w/ mending her :(. love that episode when Carter and her go out to help someone, and Carter falls hurting his arm. Carter and Lucy had the best chemistry that was just so funny and cute.

Shane West is on joining the show now too. i saw in E! News Live, and he was wearing black nail polish. he's still the cutie :).

[Disco]

i cried too. that whole stabbing scene left me in shock.

[Summers]

i know me too. i mean you never saw Lucy stabbed, but we see all that blood around her when Kerry comes into the room. there was just so much blood. i'm trying to remember wasnt the guy who stabbed her and Carter schorphernic(k, i know that is definitely spelled wrong...sorry)?

[Disco]

yes... he was... and i have no idea how to spell it either :lol:

he comes back in a later episode.

[Summers]

i thought he came back the following episode? when they were doing surgery on Carter and Lucy.

[Disco]

Ok... I have not watched this whole season. But I hope I don't forget to watch tonight. I saw the commercial and my hear skipped a beat. Something is going to happen to my beloved Abby... is Myrna (sp?) leaving the show?? :(

[LilWonderWoman]

nothing is going to happen to her, but it will make for interesting tv

[Disco]

i did spell her name wrong.. it's maura.

yeah... i see now from the commercial that the guy didn't shoot straight at her.

i wonder if they are going to leave it as a cliffhanger and we don't know what happenes until next week.

so... carter is with yet another woman?? goodness :rolleyes:

never mind.. she wasn't even in that commercial scene... they shot the cat that was run over.

[LilWonderWoman]

i was a bit offended by that hispanic panic comment

ray's an ass-paragus

anyway did you think that big black gun comment was corney

and i dunno if i could pee with two guys staring at me, that's crazy!

[Disco]

ray's an ass-paragus

:lol:

i actually like the big black gun comment. it's was the safest thing for her to say at the moment.

i gotta say...wow!! now i remember why i watched the first 8 seasons or so without missing an episode..... this show still rocks.

[Summers]

so they killed Abby? I heard during premiere week that someone was leaving the show.

[Disco]

no... she's alive!!!!!

it's carter that's leaving... this is noah's last year on the show.

[LilWonderWoman]

i loved this eppy but i wanted to see what happened when she ran back into the ER

i dun care too much for the cater story line

and Nila forgetting the patient that much be hard for that poor husband

[Summers]

oh, they did good editing on the episode trailer. Its like if you want to leave the ER you are going out in a death scene. Noah is the one leaving. That guy been there since the beginning. I had such a crush on him.

Sherry Stringfield is back.....right? I heard she got custody of her niece little Susan.

[Disco]

well Nila has always had problems getting more on a personal note with her patients. i'm sure if that lady was someone elses patient they would have remembered since it supposedly wasn't too long ago that she was in the hospital.

can't stand carters storyline... they can't find anything better for him then yet another "love' interest??!!

i also want to know what happens to Abby when she walks back in. i imagined her in total shock... maybe shaking a bit with a far off look in her eye. at first they would treat her as normal asking where the hell she's been until they see the blood on her and then notice that she doesn't look too well.

yeah... my crush was split between noah and george. but ultimately my favorite has always been anthony.

yep... i think sherry came back last year or maybe even earlier... can't remember. i think her sister just gave the daughter to her. can't remembe what happened to her sister either....

[LilWonderWoman]

Weaver story line is going to be good!!!

sissy spacek has something to do with it!

i like Nila though, that other doctor, not pratt, Dr. Gallant

like her but then he went away to war i think

i love Carter story line with Thandie Newton (Kem) with the baby...so sad

[marisol]

I hope I hope I hope Gallant and Neela get together. Now that Hawaii went south, I hope they will bring Sharif Atkins back to the show.

And based on spoilers it looks like Noah Wyle is going to popping into the ER on occasion in future seasons, since he (and Kem?) are starting an HIV clinic stateside.

[Smallvillenews]

The Abby getting taken episode is about to air in the UK on Sunday night.... can't wait to see what happen's after those little snippet's of info ^^ I like Abby, so I hope she doesn't die!

I love Noah's character Carter. He's been in it from the beginning, he'll be really misssed from the show. I agree with you Disco that the new love interest is a bit of a dumb storyline... he just lost his baby with Kem, he wanted to marry her and she say's not yet and woah... suddenly he's flirting about with someone else??? That's just so wrong somehow.

[Disco]

ER possibly continuing after season 12...... until 2008.

Saw the episode... wow, that was good. I was really worried when they turned up that dirt track and all that scene was just awful... :( Poor Abby, she always has bad things happening to her one way or another. I'm also curious as to what happened when she went back to the E.R. I had visions of her about to get a yelling at for walking off the shift, until everyone sees all the blood and dirt on her uniform... it would have been good to see that kind of ending.

I don't know why you never knew I was from the U.K.?? I thought you knew :) But yes, I am from sunny :p Grande Britannia :D Almost right in the middle of the map in Staffordshire, in the area known as The Potteries, because it's the heart of the British pottery industry. All that clay in the soil you see... has to be good for something I guess :D

[Disco]

Sounds like an interesting place.

I also wanted to know what happened to Abby when she got back into the hospital. Was a good episode and glad she wasn't physically hurt in any way.

[staceysue145]

I never got to see the episode when Abby got "kiddknapped" and the one after or before it....my cable seems to get screwed up on thursday nights at 10...its soo anoying LOL

[Disco]

Welcome :)

Well.. she came out ok physically... just a little emotionally shook up.

I think the episode title is "Skin". You might be able to find a transcript of what happened somewhere on the web.

[Smallvillenews]

Hi Staceysue :) If you go here, they have good review's of what the episodes were about and what happened. Just click on the links for the epi's you missed.

http://www.erheadquarters.com/episodes.htm

[Shell3283]

This show has gone down hill ever since Carter went to Africa. I am happy that Luka and Abby are together and have a new baby, at least that is some excitement.
I can't believe John Stamos is on the show now, he is looking old.

My favorite is Dr. Ray Barnett, what a HOTTIE!

I totally agree, Shell. I used to be obsessed with the show. I think I've seen part of one episode this season. I'm having trouble getting into it. Carter is irreplaceable. It's not ER without him.

[Shell3283]

Hopefully, Carter (Noah Wyle) comes to his senses and make a major return to ER, that is the only hope in saving the show.

[Imzadi]

I'm really loving E.R. again since season 12. I'm actually glad, that Carter left. They did almost everything to him they could. It's like a fresh start und I like it.

[look_ma_no_pants]

They did do a lot with his character over the years, I can't think of anything they could have done next. But honestly, I didn't really care too much what he did, I just liked looking at him. I was in love since his first day at the hospital, tailored lab coat and all. He was the only doctor left from the original cast and I feel like I've lost the connection to the show.

[Chlollie]

Did anyone happen to get the new trailer. If anyone knows where I can fine please do tell.

[WickedJenn]

Wow, I cried like a baby during the premiere :o

[Soulja]

I can't believe they killed Pratt. I understand Mekhi wanted to leave the show but did they really have to kill him? Why couldn't they just have him leave and go to Northwestern like he planned on?

I know, I was miffed they did it like that. I didn't know they were going to kill him off completely :\

I read somewhere that they wanted to kill him off because the show hasn't had a death as impacting on the viewers since Dr. Greene's death.

I'm glad that Anthony Edwards is coming back though, even though I have no idea how they are going to put him in there since he's been dead for 7 years. I've heard flshbacks but you never know.

I always thought they should end ER the way they started it, with Dr. Greene sleeping or something.

[Chlollie]

Tonights episode should be great.

[WickedJenn]

Wow, I mean wow! I was sooo happy with tonight's episode, everyone that I really wanted to be there was.

I won't spoil it yet, but man, one of the best episodes ever of this show.

I sure missed the Carter/Benton. They had an awesome dynamic on the show.

[Chlollie]

The episode was great. Looking forward to next weeks,

[Mars Investigations]

We got "The High Holiday" in the UK last night. Good episode, but I really don't like Gates.

[KSiteTV]

I've *gasp* never seen a full episode of ER, but watched last night's to see what the hubbub was about, and I loved it.

I think I need to see more - particularly, the older stuff. I really liked the returning characters. And it was cool that they were listed at the start of the episode rather than just as "special guest stars."

[CallMeClark]

OMFG! He's back! :lol:

It may seem like a lot, but I say start from the beginning and slowly work your way through. The boxsets are relatively cheap, and although it naturally has some creative lulls, overall it's a fantastic series.

[KSiteTV]

I've pre-ordered ER Season 1 from Amazon... at $16.99 with the Amazon Prime shipping deal I've got, not having sales tax, you can't go wrong:

I hope I like it!

I guarantee 100% you'll love it. I've watched this show since it first aired in '94. In the beginning it got nominated for tons of Emmys. I admit for a while as lots of the main cast left, it got a bit stale, but this past season especially has been nothing short of amazing, and it had better get some recognition next year.

[KSiteTV]

I find it interesting too that this thread was pretty dead for a few months and then last night's episode is bringing people out of the woodwork. A testament to how good the episode last night was, I think.

[WickedJenn]

Last night was such a present for old-time viewers, I was giddy.

[Imzadi]

It was a wonderful episode. And George Clooney was right back as Doug Ross. It was greating seeing them so happy together after all those years. Its been 9/10 years (!) since he left the show.

E.R. was great in the frist 6 seasons. And even after that is was far better than any average TV show. I almost stopped watching in season 9, but with the end of season 10 I was back in love again with ER.

[Vergon6]

I watched Thursday's episode on Hulu last night. It was definitely nostalgic. I kind of gave up on ER after the first few seasons. It just didn't capture my imagination and attention anymore. Seeing the old dynamic between you know was fantastic. I wasn't surprised that they had the other two not realize what Doctor in Chicago they had helped. What's weird is I think Ross didn't even mention Carter when he was listing off the names of people that had been at County.

I always assumed that ER was shot in LA. I'm assuming they just do second unit filming in Chicago, right?

It was even weird watching a few epiodes on TNT a few months back from like 2001 that I had not even seen.

I wish they wouldn't have changed the theme though.

[Chlollie]

New episode this Thursday. Anyone going to watch it.

[Imzadi]

Sure, I watched for the last 15 years. Not going to stop now :)

[WickedJenn]

I can't wait. It's crazy that there are only 3 epis left...I'll miss this show.

[Chlollie]

I'll miss it to. Wow been on for 15 years. This is like the longest running show, for a 1 hour program.

[WickedJenn]

Ugh what is with me and tearing up at this show? Every episode this season practically. This one was also very good.

[Chlollie]

Anyone see the episode? Was it good?

[Chlollie]

Great episode.

[Imzadi]

Thank god. I'm a big Ray & Neela fand. I was almost deüressed, when thoy chopped Ray's legs off and left. So im really happily that they finally found each other. And I hope to see more of them in the final episode. Perhapy they will show Neela pregnant, as Parminder Nagra is very, very pregnan.

[Chlollie]

Who will be watching the last episode of ER.

[Vergon6]

Who will be watching the last episode of ER.
I probably will just to see how it ends, but I'm not sure if I will watch it live or not.

[Chlollie]

Two Hour ER, so going to watch it.

[WickedJenn]

Alexis Bledel!

[Vergon6]

Is it two hours? My TV just says 9-10 pm (CST). I am watching right now. Oh crap it said 8-10 actually. Well I will catch the first hour on Hulu.

----- Added 29 Minutes later -----

Good ending :). They even brought back the old theme music.

You didn't miss much, the if hour was the actors talking about episodes, then again its sometimes nice to see the talk about the show.

[Chlollie]

Wow so it was three hours long.

[Tabularasa]

So naturally, I spent years not watching ER, every now and again I would catch it. And now I want to watch from season 1, lol. But knowing what I know about the show, I think it ended very well. Props to NBC for giving this show the whole night to go out on top.

[EternalTwilight]

Alexis Bledel!

Yeah, when did she join ER? I haven't watched all the episodes this season so I guess I missed her entrance. I really miss the old days of this show.

[Chlollie]

She was just in the series final.

[EternalTwilight]

She was just in the series final.

Oh, strange...thought they'd give her a bigger role. I tuned in halfway through the episode and saw lots of new faces so it made no sense. Loved seeing Rachel, though. Is she a doctor? Pre-med?

[Vergon6]

I didn't recognize than I realized you must have been talking about that girl from Gilmore Girls. I never watched that show but I recognize the actress. I wonder why Shiri Appelby from Roswell wasn't in it. I noticed her in one of the episodes, and saw that she had been in about 10 episodes.

Do you mean Dr. Green's daughter? She is supposed to be Pre-Med I think. Carter was referring to her as a med school applicant.

[EternalTwilight]

I hated Gilmore Girls but I know the actresses and recognized her right away. She's very beautiful, easy to spot.

Did they mention Lucy at all? I know it's unlikely but she was one of my favorite characters from back in the day.

I didn't like Gilmore Girls also.

I didn't like Gilmore Girls also.

I think I might have given it a chance if they just stopped talking once in a while. That and the weird music. I tried watching it a few times and got a headache.

She is? Oh, good for her. Long way from her rebel days. I thought I heard Carter refer to her as "Dr. Green".

[Imzadi]

He did. But that was more like a hommage to the old days.

[Vergon6]

Right. He saw potential in her, and was trying to encourage her by calling her "Dr. Green". Today they repeated the series finale. I still missed the first 15 minutes, but it established that Rachel Green was now 22 and going to Duke University. She was one of many students from around the country doing a tour of County who was interested in going to med school.

I also noticed in the first hour they had Sam Jones III there ;). I know he was on ER in the past, but I don't remember how long ago. I had caught some random re-runs on TNT. I think it was when Eric La Salle was still on the show. And it was revealed in one episode that Sam Jones' character on the show was gay. I hope I am remembering that right.

Oh wow, he has been in some recent episodes. But the most recent seems to be from December 2008 until now. IMDB has not been updated to reflect the fact he was in "And in the End..."

So it was after Eric La Salle already left. That's right, he was Dr. Pratt's son. Did I read correctly that Dr. Pratt had died? I have only seen probably a dozen episodes in the last several years of ER.

[Tabularasa]

Regarding Pratt, I know the event that killed him happened in the season 14 finale, but it was confirmed that he was the one who died in season 15 premire.

I just started watching ER, but I heard a friend at work talking about it, so I think that's right.

Sam Jones also played a gay intern in bones, just noticed that the other day.

It was Intern in the Incinerator, it was a good episode.

He was Gregs Brother, not his son. Both learned only ~ 3 season ago, that they are brothers. Danny Glover played the father, he abandoned Greg and his mother when he was a child and had a new family.
