I love this is show, other than the fact that there are a lot of inaccuracies. For instance the medical students working in the hospital full-time. I'm in college for phlebotomy, then RN, then Nurse Practitioner, then Physician/Surgeon. You can't go to medical school and work in a hospital full-time too, there isn't enough hours in the day. Besides, that's what a residency is for.

You have to watch the Retrospective. I was so amazed that after years actors can cry while remembering a sad situation in ER. It's shocking bc I heard about actors who have to use fake tears and Alex literally started apologizing that she started crying during the talk about the scene when Mark died. 7 years later... Amazing.

Let me be the first to say I love ER, despite it's problems in later seasons. The first few seasons were pretty brilliant and ahead of its time.
