As I was Watching ER tonight(tv show)....

[snowbiggie]

Here is the play by play.

A pt. coughed up some vomit on a new graduate nurse working in the ER, and immediatly afterwards, the new grad took over her gloves and stated that "I did not go to nursing school for this, I QUIT" and walks out.

I was laughing histerically at the depiction of this. I'm not saying that it never happens, but seemed to dog on nurses a little bit, or at least some of the stereotypes of the field.

[i wonder if there is a website where we could check out the highlights of the shows?

Try going to http://www.nbc.com and scrolling to find ER. Then there should be an episode guide that lets you choose each season and episode. Hope this helps.

I won't be able to stand it if Abby goes back to med school, bot with that great speech she gave about why she loved nursing, and didn't want to be a doc.

I'll have to boycott the show.

I am getting scared now... Carter is in the Congo (right?), Abby the nurse is now going back to med school to become Dr. Abby, and a new nurse character is coming on to "replace" her. Is Abby's character coming back to County's ER as a med student ----> replacing Carter? Does this mean the end for Carter working in County's ER? He has been there since the beginning of the show! I hope no more people leave. It is getting hard to keep track of it all some days. I :kiss ER!

If you want a good re-cap of ER (in excrutiating detail), go to televisionwithoutpity.com. In the upper left corner, select ER from the Pick a Show menu box. They re-cap a lot of shows, but sometimes it takes a few days after the show has aired.

Actually, "Carter is in the Congo" because in real life, he and his wife just had a baby. He is taking a sort of FMLA for 6 weeks and the show just "put him in the Congo". He WILL be back!!!

There is going to be a new nurse coming to ER. Its the same actress that played Velma in Scooby Doo the movie. Check out the NBC website and you'll see her picture on there. I think it said that she is going to be playing a single mother.

I missed a few episodes a little while ago. Somebody PLEASE tell me what happened to nurse Carol?

[Paleobug]

If these characters love their profession so much, then why do all of them look so miserable all the time?

lol..I haven't watched ER since George Clooney, and Julia Margales (sp??) w/the brown curly hair was on there.
