I can't remember if it was Trauma - Life in the ER or Untold Stories of Life in the ER but did anyone watch this last night. There was a segment where one of the doctors was removing a bug (cockroach I think) from a pt's ear. He apparantly had a bug-phobia and freaked out, stripped off all of his cloths down to his boxers just to see that everyone was laughing at him.
It was hilarious. :rotfl:
Love that show. :)

I dislike reenactments for some reason. I prefer watching "realtime" events. Just me I know.
There are a couple of amazing ER threads here that tell stories you would scarecely believe. I love reading those.

I agree, I love Trauma, life in the ER...but that untold stories show...I think its corny bad acting...and lessens the impact of the actual story being told...

I'm with SBE and mommatrauma on this one. I can't stand that acting.
Whatever happened to Trauma Life in the ER? It isn't on anymore.

I agree...the re-enactments are awfully corny. The stories are pretty good though! I would rather watch Trauma: Life in the ER. There is also a show called Life or Death on MSNBC every so often which follows nurses around in different areas. It's a great look at how nurses perform every day under stress.

i love diagnosis unknown (though it slways seems to end in a poisoning attempt) ane medical incredible. I also saw a show called nurses and i saw 2 episodes recently and i LOVED THAT SHOW. As a student it was educational and i wish they would air more of it. I like trauma lifei in the er and untold stories but don't watch them with any regularity.

I SAW IT!!! It was HILARIOUS!!! And I agree I really don't like reenactments although when I was little I enjoyed rescue 911. In fact I was annoyed my dad was watching it I like the real life ones but when the cockroach part came on I had to watch and it was the best part ever!

The one from 2day, I just seen a body builder drop his pants and there it was a HUGE BOIL on his butt, I want to be a nurse dearly..but, i didn't know what this show was about never seen it and it made my stomach turn...so, I turned the station and then turn it back like "ER" great..NEXT THING a bum off the street with maggots eatting his whole leg!!!! I'm sorry, but I just got done eatting 4th of JULY BBQ, I was not expecting this and like ever1 else said the acting was terrible and it made my stomach turn bad, I rather watch House.
