I loved last Thursday's storyline about the retired doctor...kinda like "my job here is done...and now my story ends."

I think these episodes just keep getting better and better, what a way to go out

Just yesterday it was revealed that George Clooney would be appearing in the finale season of the hit medical drama "ER." Now, "The Insider" has breaking news on another "ER" alum, Julianna Margulies!

A rep for Julianna confirmed to "The Insider" that the actress would also be on the show's final season.

The final episode of "ER" will air Thursday night, April 2 now that NBC has extended the season's run by three extra episodes. A one-hour clip show retrospective will run just before the final episode airs.

I read online somewhere, a picture was shown of George doing his filming and he was wearing a wedding band. So the "guess" is that Doug and Carol married. Woo Hoo. Too bad it couldn't have happened on screen since I loved those characters together, hey they're still together. me happy. LOL.

I read this too maybe a week or two ago. As psyched as I am, I almost wish that we didn't get these spoilers or news stories. Remember when Carol went out to meet Doug...no one knew that Clooney was going to appear. I remember crying, laughing, cheering. Some of that is lost now that we know people are coming back. But as a fan since episode #1, I am beyond thrilled that the writers are choosing to close up the loose ends and that the actors signed on to appear! Get ready for the tears!!

I totally did the same thing! At first I was like "oh its someone who looks like him", but when I realized it was him I shrieked and started crying. LOL.

I am so embarrassed! I read this and burst out in tears of joy!

I remember being shocked, then the tears started flowing after he turned around on the pier. I too wish there weren't so many spoilers out there, because it seems that no matter how hard you try to avoid them - you can't.

ZTABullwinkle · #**249** 02-20-2009, 12:29 AM

Wow, Carter looks OLD! I wonder if he is lying about Kem though. Why wouldn't she be with him in Chicago while he is having dialysis treatments? Didn't Kem's mother die way back when? I know she was sick, and he rushed off to be with her in Paris.

Jerry, I will always love you. He played his last scene perfectly! I cracked up as his hand slid down the door. "Call me!"

Damn, Morris can't catch a break when it comes to the ladies. Not liking the previews one bit! Took me awhile to realize her boss was Steve from "Sex and the City." What an ass!

Anyone else think Noah Wyle's eyebrows look weird?

ZTAMich · #**250** 02-20-2009, 12:48 AM

So great to see him back. I wish these "end of the show" episodes could last forever!

honeychile · #**251** 02-20-2009, 01:29 AM

Is Dr. Carter really getting dialysis? I know when I had to go to an infusion center, you'd be next to people with renal disease, cancer, leukemia, AIDS - and I felt kinda weird about being there just for the rabies series. Was something said that it was kidney?

And yes, I was sure that, when Kem's mother was ill in Paris, didn't she go off with her ex-boyfriend? I thought for sure she & John were finis.

At first, I thought he looked old. Then I realized he was looking sick. I'm just glad he'll be around for a few more weeks.

I am so going to miss this show....

PeppyGPhiB · #**252** 02-20-2009, 03:03 AM

That sure looked like a dialisis machine he was hooked up to at the end. Can one get kidney failure from AIDS? He has been working in Africa, after all. Obviously something is awry with his relationship with Kem, because he got visually upset when Neela mentioned her toward the end of the episode. I don't remember if she went back with him to Africa, but if so, perhaps she died of AIDS?

I hope they don't kill Neela off. I can only handle so many of the doctors dying AT the hospital!

ZTABullwinkle · #**253** 02-20-2009, 10:41 AM

He didn't lost his kidney after the stabbing. Drs. Benton and Anspaugh were able to save it. I can recall the angst (ooohhhh, big word!) of Benton during the surgery, and Anspaugh calming him. I wonder if you are on to something PeppyGPhiB. Who is to say that Kem is still alive. If her mother did pass away and was buried in Paris, that could explain the comment about Kem being with her mother in Paris.

I would hazard a guess that something happened to his kidneys while he was in Africa.

I don't think that was Neela shot in the previews, that was Archie's new girlfriend.

Do you think TPTB could try not to kill off or seriously injure a fan favorite again on this show?

I was assuming chemotherapy but I've never seen a dialysis set up before.

If you looked closely, you could see the "blood" in the tubing going to his arm. Many chemo treatments go through a port inserted in the patient's chest.
