It’s finally here, ER’s 15th and final season finale. The Blot has been equally looking forward to and dreading watching one of my favorite shows come to an end. You just never know what you’re going to get with a planned series finale, but I have a feeling it’s going to be a good one with lots of returning cast members from the show’s rich history scheduled to appear.
I’m just hoping there are no more deaths of beloved characters, something ER has come to be known for over the years. For some reason the writers off ER just can’t let exiting characters ride off into the sunset, they always have to kill them off in some cockamamie way. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if a bomb went off in Chicago’s County General while all of the show’s past and present characters were in the building. That way the tradition of killing off the character of an actor exiting the show would still hold true.
NBC’s farewell to ER begins at 8/7c with an hour long 15 Year Series Retrospective followed immediately by the two hour ER Series Finale at 9/8c. I hope everyone shows up for the party!
