It's not even a 1. I'd give it a negative score if I could.

This season, the lowest rated of all ER seasons, had to be an embarrassment on the major character's resumes. Except Stamos', I'm sure he reveled in the last chance he had. It was obvious throughout his entire ER stint, he was only working to make a paycheck. He either mailed in so many profanely, Pratt level performances or he is just a really bad actor. I firmly - FIRMLY - believe in the latter; he was a pretty boy, with minuscule musical talent at best, hence the Full House gig. I still can't believe the shows exec's we're so desperate to hire him in a last ditch attempt to save the Titanic that was ER. All it did was confirm the inevitable. Add Pratt's ghetto, marble mouth homeboy to the mix and it's GAME OVER.

Now that Luka and Abby are gone, it is disgraceful to me that the legacy of Greene, Lewis and Carter are carried on by these people -Gates, Pratt, Sam, Neela- who are actors because they were once considered attractive by the industry. They weren't concerned about their worth as actors, only that they looked good or had a money making movie. These are the dregs of the acting world left to carry and blemish the torch of the greatest prime time drama to ever grace the small screen. The proof is in the scene with Morris shocking himself. A scene which was supposed to funny, but wasn't.

What does it say about a drama in which scenes meant to add comic relief are dull and scenes meant to be dramatic are so poorly acted they can't help but be laughed at? This is the ER of season 14
