So, did ya’ll watch ER last night? Of course you didn’t, because you gave up on the show three years ago…even though I’ve been telling you what you’ve been missing out on for the past two.
Anyhoo, last night’s ep did reunite us with Nurse Hathaway, Dr. Ross, and Dr. Benton. Apparently, Susan Sarandon was also on but…does anyone care?
What did we find out last night?
- Peter and Cleo are still together. I will admit, it took a full thirty seconds for me to remember who Cleo was.
- Sam and Neela went to the University of Washington Medical Center for a heart and kidney because as we found out an hour earlier, Seattle Grace still doesn’t seem to have anyone on staff who can do heart surgeries.
- Carol and Doug are still together, and spoon in bed at night. Aww.
- Carter and Kem are still together. Dammit. I can’t stand Kem.
- Izzie has melanoma, which has spread to her brain, the ABC network, and the entire Disney empire. Wait, wrong show.
- Hospitals still use corporate jets to move transplant organs around. Hmm…wasteful much? They need to behave like Motor City Fat Cats and drive their hybrid vehicles from Chicago to Seattle! Yeah! Get off my lawn!
- When Jerry left Boston Legal, he went to med school and wound up at Northwestern. Go figure.
After all of that, I started thinking about how Dr. Doug Ross could get a crew together of 10 of his buddies, and they could knock over Indian casinos in Washington.

I was VERY disappointed by this episode (which I watched last night). First of all, Neela knows Carter, and JUST SAW HIM. So did Sam. She knows he was around long before she got there. So she meets Dr. Ross, they start comparing names and she doesn’t say, “Hey, you know who just stopped by? John Carter – did you know him. Hey, he needs a kidney – wonder if this one is going to him?” Yes, I know that would have ruined the whole “some doctor got the kidney” thing at the end, but still. Hated that disconnect. Also, why not ask about the nurses? A couple of them have been there since DAY ONE – and Ross doesn’t ask about them? That’s exceedingly insulting considering he IS LIVING WITH ONE OF THEM (they never confirmed if those two got married and I didn’t look for rings).
George Clooney’s eyebrows are kinda large, aren’t they? I never noticed that til last night. When he’s 80 years old they are gonna be outta control.
