Bye-bye Lizzy! I liked her. I'm glad that Neela's coming back to County though. Did Susan loose some weight? She looks a little slimmer than before.

Neela's the Indian one, right? What's her story? She must have been introduced during last season, which I missed because I was abroad.

Yes, Neela's the Indian girl from the UK and was introduced last season. After med school, she was placed in Michigan and left before she could start because she wasn't really sure if she wanted to be a doctor because she kind of felt that her parents were forcing her to do so (this is typical behaviour for many children of immigrant parents). Her parents fly to Chicago to try to convince her to change her mind, but she wouldn't, so she ended up working at the convienience store across the street from County.

She is the girl from the movie "Bend it Like Beckham." That's a good movie. On ER her character wanted to be a doctor and then she didn't. Last I saw, she was interviewing at the mall for a job since she quit her job at County.

I haven't watched ER regularly since Anthony Edwards left the show so I am probably not the one to answer your question.

Wow, I've seen that movie but don't know why I didn't notice that that was her.

I did see last show, though, where it looks like she'll be back at County - Susan (I think) offered her a job.

Oh, and what's going on with that one woman with the kid, who in the last episode Luca offered to let them stay at his house? I guess they got introduced last season, too? Did she and Luca date, and did she work at County before?

I was sad to see Elizabeth go. She was one of my favorite characters.

She was introduced as the new nurse last season. She and Luca are still dating, I think, and he's grown closer to her son.

Okay, the intern following Abby around tonight (11/4) - is that Sara Gilbert (Roseanne & Melissa Gilbert's sister)??

I had just seen an A&E show on Melissa Gilbert and was surprised to see how much weight she (Sara Gilbert) had gained.

She certainly looks like Sara Gilbert, but I didn't see her name listed in the blurb on the NBC site.

Edited to add the word "look"

Doesn't look like she's in the credits, either. But there is another Sara...?

I missed last week and the beginning of this week...how did Neela end up back at the hospital?

Dr. Lewis is now the Chief of ER. One of her interns/residents had terrible OCD and quit. In desperation, Dr. Lewis begged Neela to come back to County Hospital and Neela agreed...

It was Sara Gilbert (aka Darlene Conner) on tonight, but she was following Neela, not Abby. Neela drives me nuts, and just watching her disturbs me.

It's so weird seeing all these new people and watching the core ones (Carter, Lewis, Weaver) fade away.

But hey, as long as my husband Shane West is on, I'm one happy camper. Just make sure Mandy Moore's no where to be seen.

Next week's epi with Ray Liotta looks good, hopefully it will be!

I'm wondering how long it's gonna take before Abby's little scheme with the medicine she gave away is going to last. Someone is bound to find out.
And yay Carter, for giving it to (Shane)----He's got no beside manner----hmmmm, kinda like Dr. Benton, ya know?
Neela is getting on my nerves a bit.....maybe she'll calm down soon.

I'm glad that I am not the only one that can't stand Neela. She whines too much and gets on my nerves. I was wondering if that was Sara Gilbert, I guess it was.

Yes...Sara Gilbert's name was in the opening credits of guest stars...she's looking great!

Wow, I had to go through all those threads to find an ER thread.
Does no discussion mean no one is watching?? I think ER is even better now in its 11th season than at the beginning. Other episodes that stand out are the ones that have dealt with the influence that pharmaceutical companies have over hospitals and testing new drugs.

The episode tonight, "Just as I am", with Dr. Weaver and her birth mother was great. Her final line was, "I don't want your love if it is not also acceptance." Great writing throughout the episode.

Next week Cynthia Nixon (from sex and they city) will be guest starring as a woman who has suffered a stroke and the whole episode will be from her point of view as the patient. Should be outstanding!
