I've long since stopped watching. trueunicorness still watches it and has also expressed frustrtionbut she still watches it nonetheless.
I don't know who Ray is but mentioning the two legs reminded me of an episode I did see, in which a woman loading something into the back of her SUV along the side of the road when a cracked out guy in a station wagon came barrelling into her, resulting in the loss of both of her legs.
I too haven't watched in years. I miss the original characters, and while that my reflect the changes in staff at a real hospital, it doesn't make for good TV. I just don't have the ability to become emotionally attached to the new folks, it seems.
I had forgotten completely about ER, having been in Poland for the last 8 months. I've been on and off with the series. Some years, I watched it religiously. Others, I got too far behind with various committments to catch up. I haven't been impressed with the need to shock that the show seems to have. Seriously, how dramatic can one hospital ER area continue to be. Over the many years of the show, how many gunfights, missing limbs, miraculous births, murderers on the loose, and love triangles are really possible. Most hospitals never experience any of these things, even once, let alone every season.
