I made a post, but i don't know. . .it didn't go through.

My point was. . .

EWWWWWWWWWWW I really did NOT need to see what happened on ER tonight! I really think that they have gone entirely too far.

I don't wanna say what happened for those who haven't seen it yet. But I will say that I HIGHLY DOUBT I will watch the show ever again.

oh my @ Romano's arm GONE!!
I hate his character but what a way to lose an arm. I was

for a couple of minutes.

I'm almost too scared to ask what happened

when I saw his arm come off I just stared at the screen for a couple of minutes in shock!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I taped it and haven't watched it yet but now I'm not sure if I want to. Is it that bad?

It's pretty graphic, but go ahead and watch it so we can all be on one accord. :-)

Granted it was a little graphic but I won't stop watching the show. The part the got me was he was down on the ground and he turned his head and he saw his arm (I think) far away. That would so totally freak me out. But I;ve seen worst on shows. For example C.S.I. its show the cornonor doing a lobatomy (cutting the head,using the saw, and opening up the skull). Let me tell you that was nasty. I turned my head. I still say that old school anti-smoking comerical with the old lady with the hole in the throat and smokes through it, freaks me out even more than CSI or ER did. It gives me the hebbie jebbies..........

Was this on tonight? During my break, I was in the break room and on a show on CBS, they showed exactly what you described. It was very gross. I couldn't watch. And to think that for 15 years I wanted to become a doctor.

Hehehe, when I saw the little disclaimer at the beginning of the show, I knew it was true. I'm a diehard ER fan, and I heard the rumor that his arm was going to get chopped off by the helicopter, but I didn't really believe it in full.

It looked really real though, good special effects... I thought it was funny when he was like "Oh, God, I'm at County."

Romano's just your resident asshole...but damn, that guy didn't have to get his arm sliced off.

Great show tonight [even though I missed 20 minutes of it while I was outside watching the drug bust going on at my neighbor's house] and I can't wait to see the other episodes.

It's not the same without Dr. Greene though.

Fewdfreak · #12 09-27-2002, 04:30 AM

Yeah, I miss Dr. Greene. When he died that was the saddest ER ever... I felt sad for Elizabeth when she was reading that paper on selling her house...

This has absolutely nothing to do with tonight's episode, but I just wanted to mention something about that episode in Hawaii they filmed to show Dr. Greene's last days.

That old school looking red car they used [the one where he tries to teach Rachel how to drive] actually belongs to [deep breath] my chapter sister's BF's dad. They were paid $1000 a day just for use of that car.

I can watch that episode over and over and I still get chills everytime I hear IZ's song playing as he slips away.

I think ER went to far too. IMO, they appear to be doing this because they are "jumping the shark". In other words to get ratings, since ER is already 9 years old, ratings have probably dropped. To revive them, they needed something of shock value, i.e. Ramono's arm chopped off.

Except for the Mark Green has Died episode, we stopped watching it last year around the time the baby ate Ecstasy. Got too ridiculous, the show lost it's focus.
