Final Episode of ER
Anyone watching? I haven't really watched it the last five years, but I thought I would check out the last episode.

I used to watch this show all the time for the first 5 years or so.
My personal ER finale was 10 years ago.

brideowanian is enthralled...been worrying about tonight for the entire season.
Personally, I thought it was played out 5 years ago, but this show ending is a big deal to my wife and apparently to my sister. |

Boring finale but cool to hear the original theme at the end.

Add me to the used-to-watch-it-for-the-first-few-years group. I tuned back in for one episode a few years ago just out of curiosity and there was not one medical case in the entire hour. Hospital shows are usually disguised soaps, but at some point E.R.'s mask must of slipped off.

Yep, I thought it was kind of boring too. Not boring in the sense that I thought the 2 hours dragged on, but I guess I expected more. Where was the explosion, helicopter crash, or gunman shooting up the ER?
I mean, I know they were going for the "life goes on" theme to end it, but they've done such big stunts in the past that it was a little underwhelming. |

So many shows have a shelf life as the cute kid becomes an awkward teen, or 'high schoolers' start sporting gray hair, and so many long running shows [CSI, L&O] depend on formula while the players are interchangeable. Outside of The Waltons one is at a loss for another show that deals with people maturing longterm and becoming organically something other that what they started out as. I still see so many of those actors from ER and think of them as Pratt or Dr. Green, or Neela, or even Abby, rather than their real identity, and they feel like people you actually know, rather than players presenting a dramatic story.
