From my lips to George Clooney's ears

Well, not really. I've been a fan of ER since the first series back in 1994 when Dr Ross melted our hearts and then broke them when he left the series a few years later. Now, I'm watching the 15th and final series of ER. It's had its ups and downs but I've stayed true. ER isn't on my list of favourites because, like George, I've moved on but it will always be on my list of all time favourites. Back in the day the groundbreaking series (which your folks probably watched once you were in bed) was Hill St Blues, not ever to be missed and it was some 13 or so years later that Messrs Spielberg and Crichton gave us ER.
Last nights tear jerker was about organ transplants and dear Dr Ross in a small way contributed to saving Dr John Carter (remember him, we were with him through his drug problems, stabbing etc. etc.)
Well, I shall miss them when they're gone, four more episodes to go. More Emmy nominations than any other series - 124 - well deserved I say and in my dotage I may buy the entire 15 years and sit and remember when.
