So, the other day I wanted to watch an episode of ER. It turns out the goddamn show is nearly impossible to find, despite the fact that EVERYONE has seen tons of it.

After a long and arduous search, I finally found some episodes, and my god. The show is everything I remembered. I never saw any of the early seasons when it was apparently "good," and so I only know ER as THE SHOW THAT BRINGS THE EPIC DRAMA. Because it does. Without fail. Every episode.

Anyway, since the last time I watched (four or five years ago), apparently Carter moved to Africa, Weaver went away, Abby and Luka got married and had a baby (WHAT), and Uncle Jesse from Full House became a doctor. Also a doctor? Parminder Nagra who played opposite Keira Knightley in Bend it Like Beckham. I am so trying to find more episodes of the show with her in it, because she's pretty brilliant. And because the show is VERY DRAMATIC AND PREACHY. Oh man. I learned so many important life lessons from that episode. Wow.

lol. ER. What a show.

oh, man, you make me want to get into ER. I've never gotten into medical dramas (have never cottoned onto Grey's Anatomy references). crime and courtroom stuff is my thing usually...hmmm. the only other time I've thought about watching ER was when I was going through my (thankfully brief) "OMG George Clooney is SO HOT" phase.

It's pretty awesome if you like to either tear up and/or giggle at RLY DRAMATIC DRAMA SCENES. Or if you like hot guys. I like all of those things, so I think it is kind of a genius show. I am currently digging on season 13 because it has Goran Visnjic (HOT), John Stamos (HOT), and Parminder Nagra (also HOT, but I'm more interested in her general awesome, and the HOT is only a tangential benefit).

And, btw, with Grey's Anatomy you're not missing anything. I've seen a lot of it because my former roommate and quite a few of my friends are/were into it, but it's pretty lame imo. Everyone is too weepy. The only other medical show I actually like is Scrubs.

My class exists because of that show.
