ER Season Premiere

Did anyone catch the season premiere last night of ER?

SPOILERS BELOW

I was watching ER last night while scanning some of my purchases for the week and submitting them over the phone (I belong to AC Nielsen's HomeScan panel; I scan all the things I buy and they get recorded to my demographics), so I was watching, but not paying a lot of attention. I looked up just as the clipboard fell and when Romano started raising up I had time to think, "Oh no! They're not...." and his arm went flying off. I literally gasped and couldn't believe that they had just done that on network tv. I was really shocked.

It was a hell of an opening to the season and I believe that this season is going to totally rock. I hope Abby comes to her senses and starts letting Carter help her with her drinking problem or there is no way they're going to last. I really like them together, so the tension between the "I'm just trying to help you" versus "You're trying to fix me" should be interesting. I wonder what's going to happen to Romano. I can't see any way for him to stay a surgeon and that just sucks. How terrible to spend your whole life focused on one thing, be incredible at it, and then have it all taken away in a heartbeat. I'm also glad Corday is coming back. I like her and I want to see her continue on the show even if Mark is gone. I can't wait to see this season plays out!

Brad and I had the exact same response to this episode. I think it'll be a very good season.

Kim and I are always ignoring the folks who say ER stinks these days. Sure, I wish Green had gone into private practice instead of dying, but his ending was extremely well-done.

Except for Pratt, I like all the characters on the show, and I guess that's why Pratt is there, eh? :)

My guess is Robert will become even meaner as he takes aim at everyone for anything since he won't be a surgeon any longer. Poor Lizzie . . . she'll be in his sights, for sure.

I literally fell off my bed and yelled "No fucking way" so loudly my neighbor started pounding on the wall. That was nuts.

Yep... and one hell of a way to "jump back into the season." YIKES! And to think I was kinda behind in last season too... well, I'm hooked again!

I have to agree.. I was screaming "Oh My God!" over and over.. you would have thought I was having sex! LOL
I was totally shocked that it happened and I guessed this was his way of leaving the show.. but figured when they could save his arm, he's going to be one mean ole pisser this season. I think Carrie is going befriend him in the end.
Is Carter not a better looking hunk every year? I really cried when Dr. Ross left, then Dr. Greene.. but the minute Carter goes, I'm out the doors with him. He is such a cutie putie. :)

I was eating a late dinner when I saw that scene ... couldn't believe it. It takes a lot to shock me but this one did it. I've got a feeling though that Corday and Romano will be getting all hot and bothered for each other. I've got renewed interest in ER now.

Heh... I guess I should have kept reading back in your updates before my last comment about ER. :)

I was actually thinking about Romano too, and wondering what he'd do... but he does still have his "winning personality," and he's a good leader, it seems, so he could always be a hospital head honcho. I'm thinking they'll definitely be keeping him in the show, since they just took the character to a whole new level by suddenly making him vulnerable.

They really did a good job with that scene - the moment of focusing on the clipboard was just long enough to suddenly give you the idea that SOMETHING was about to happen, but it was fast enough to still leave you reeling when it actually happened.

I love ER!
