ER - "Lights Out" - 4/26/07

"Lights Out"
Spoiler:
A busy ER is putting the pressure on Kovac to take care of the overflow of cases prior to being shut down for renovations. A lonely Sam befriends a terminally ill photojournalist with a negative outlook. Pratt gets a scare when his brother unexpectedly shows up in the ER. Meanwhile, the tension between Gates and his father hits an ultimate boiling point.

The first 36 minutes were good. Then the succubus known as Neela appeared. Thankfully, she made a very short appearance.

I find myself tuning out whenever Gates' homelife issues show up on-screen.

Sam taking care of the photographer was a little depressing as it probably hit home for my own situation (not the cancer part, the lifestyle part).

I wonder who'll get the promotion as ER chief now that Kovach turned in his resignation.

Morris scoring a lunch date after Pratt struck out was pretty funny

Yeah, Stamos annoys me too. Fitting that he's tied up with the succubus. Didn't like the Ray foreshadowing either, considering that i've read he's going to go psycho and have a physical confrontation with Gates that'll signal West's departure from ER. And I wouldn't even say I was a fan of Ray's.

Honestly, they'll probably bring someone in. I can't see any of the current cast of characters taking on the responsibility. Maybe Jerry'll come back?

See "ER" and "helicopters".

Bringing back Anthony Edwards from the dead would at least get more people watching and maybe get it back to the Hit it was in the ratings.

Yeah, Stamos annoys me too.
Who ever thought 'Uncle Jesse' from fricken Full House would be on ER?

I know his character died, as did my interest in the show.

Spoiler:
MY wife heard that Luca and Abby (the actors) were considering leaving the show this season, possibly making this the last season for the show. Has anybody else heard rumors along these lines?

I mentioned your spoiler in last week or the week before's thread. He's gone. She's got one more year on her contract, so she'll be back at least for next year. At least, that's what Ausiello said.

Bumping this thread up (since I'll leave the experts to handle starting a new thread) as a reminder that tonights episode of "ER" is a "supersized" one. According to last weeks preview and NBC.com, its going to start at 9:50 pm ET. (Your local paper like mine might have 9:53 pm ET listed as the starting time. Go with 9:50 pm ET - just to be safe. Luckly for me, the early start of "ER" doesn't ruin my taping as I don't have any 9:00 pm shows that I watch.)

LB...

I just tape the 9-11 block so I can watch 30 Rock as long as it lasts
