Fun Stuff

Trivia:
Out of all the numerous celebrity guest stars on the show, only Sally Field and Ray Liotta have won Emmys for their roles. more
Goofs:
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Doctors and nurses frequently wear their stethoscopes backwards - with the binaural pointed toward the back of the head rather than the face - while listening to heart or lung sounds. In reality, this would not allow the listener to hear ANYTHING, as sound would be transmitted into the skin at the back of the outer ear rather than down the ear canal. more
Quotes:
Dr. Kerry Weaver: The food was terrible, the music stinks, the drinks were watered down, but you sure know how to throw a party. more

Excellent drama, incredibly thrilling., 29 April 1999
9/10
Author: Starbuck-13 from Bamberg, Germany

It took me some time to get hooked by E.R.. It was only during the preparations for my exams that I discovered the daily reruns of E.R., and after some five episodes I decided to have my lunch break every day when E.R. was running.

I really love the show today, especially because of the strong, realistic characters and the thrilling action in the hospital (where time is always running low). I think this is one of the best TV series ever made. Though the newer seasons were a little worse than the first three ones (what a tragedy when Doctor Lewis left, sniff), it is still worth watching.
