At the end of the next season...

and does anybody actually still watch it? I never really got into it even at the start to be honest :zombie:

I catch it occasionally. I think it has run its course. What is that now, about 15 or so seasons?

I used to love it

Once Dr Greene died it was DOWN DOWN DOWN

The Abby years were just BLEAK

I used to love Alex Kingston. She was written out wasn't she. :(

what DOES she do now? I mix her up with Minnie Driver in my head sometimes which is odd as I hate Minnie Driver but sort of like Alex...

Oh no. :( Gutted. :( I still watch ER faithfully ever week (from January to April). I started watching it because Steve's Pool night used to be Thursday and there was never anything on tv on a Thursday. It's one programme that I am obsessive about (along with Lost). Yes, Strebor, Neela (Bend it like Beckham girl) is still in it.

I'm going to the bathroom for a cry now.

If nothing else, ER gave me a cat's name. I'll be forever grateful.

I like Alex Kingston. She seems like a right narky bitch, but in a good way.

Apparently she's in a couple of upcoming Dr Who episodes.

Alex Kingston was fabulous

She was amazing at giving all the other doctors a good DRESSING DOWN

GENERIC AMERICAN ER DOCTOR: 'I'm off guys! Have fun with the bowel problem in Curtain 5'
DR CORDAY: [with, like, a really snotty cadence] 'Oh DO SHUT UP'

I've started watching it from the beginning on DVD. Picked up the first two seasons in the HMV sale and got hooked. I do fear that I'll begin to hate it as soon as the original cast members leave. So far though it's excellent stuff.

Well it's not as if there's a scarcity of medical shows on US TV. I'm sure another one will pop along.

Holby always did have the edge for dynamic edge of your seat action anyway

15 and OUT!

they're bringing back a host of people for the final season. George Clooney has publicly denied it, but I'm thinking different :angel:

Bout fucking time! I only watched for the Keanu-alike Noah Wyle. Anthony Edward's final scenes were heartbreaking - the shark well jumped then.

I LOVE ER SO THIS NEWS IS LIKE THE WORST THING YOU COULD TELL ME :(

No, seriously, it IS my favouritist TV show of all time. I only got into it last year too, and I've got all the boxsets up to season eleven, which I'm currently watching. It was definitely the best in the 90's when it was all about Carole and Doug, but I REALLY love Abbey and Luka too.

At least I've got five seasons to still watch. I said to myself NOT to watch the current season, because I want to do it all in order.

Floppet, how are we gonna COPE? :(

Story of my life. Good stuff always goes wrong for me. :( Don't worry though Mark - we can help each other through the dark times ahead. There's another series yet though so I won't have to worry till this time next year.

Have you followed it from the very beginning then, Flop?

I'm jealous if you have. But then I feel for you ten times over because 15 years would be a LOOOONG time to be so devoted to a show.
