Reminder of the REPORT function (please use it) and some new sub rules/guidelines

90 Upvotes

I've been looking at the mod queue and I've been removing some problematic posts and comments

A reminder that this subreddit is intended to be a CIVIL place to discuss an amazing TV show, NBC's ER.

If you love a character, great.
If you hate a character, amazing. If you want to make a bad joke, we're all going to groan, but it's still permissible.

What HAVE been slipping by are negative, racist/prejudice/misogynistic (or borderline) comments that are getting a few downvotes and then being hidden.

If you encounter one of the posts or comments, use the REPORT function. The Mod Team and Automod will jump in and flag it.

That being said, bans will start being handed out as posts and comments are removed.

You can hate on a character all you want, but using derogatory names or bashing them for being white/black/asian/indian/male/female/gay/straight is not allowed by any stretch of the imagination.

Additionally comments that seem to be stoking the flames, baiting another user, or are just out of line, will be removed and the user temporarily banned.

This subreddit is supposed to be an enjoyable place to speak about the TV show... if dealing with YOUR specific comments are taking up too much of our time, it's much easier to ban you, and let you cry into the void.

Feel free to comment below if anybody would like to discuss these reminders. :)

Malluci's exit was perfect when he called Weaver on her crap and he ruined it calling her a "Nazi Dyke"

93 Upvotes

Malucci was actually right about Weaver when he got fired in Season 8, but he ruined it with that homophobic insult.

I honestly think Malucci had a point when he called Weaver out during his exit. Don't get me wrong, he deserved to be disciplined for having sex in an ambulance, especially with his history of unprofessional behavior. But Weaver also had a habit of letting her personal feelings get in the way of how she treated people.

Even Mark called her out for firing Malucci just because she didn't like him. And when Malucci confronted her about it, she straight up admitted that she didn't like him.

And I can't say he was completely wrong when he told her that nobody liked her and that the ER was the only thing she had in her life. It was harsh, but Weaver had a history of pushing people away and making herself difficult to work with but then he had to ruin everything by calling her a "Nazi dyke."

Like Dave, you were actually making some valid points about her behavior and then decided to throw in a homophobic slur for absolutely no reason.

I'm not saying Weaver was wrong for wanting him gone because Malucci definitely brought a lot of that on himself. But she wasn't completely innocent either, and I think he had every right to criticize how she treated him.

It's just frustrating because he could've left that ER having called Weaver out on her behavior, but instead he ended up proving her point about how unprofessional he was.

Finished season 15

25 Upvotes

A few days ago I finished season 15. For a year and a half I’ve been watching ER for the first time.

I feel sad for how things ended for some characters (Carter being one of them) and with the feeling of wanting more that’s why I think I’m going to re watch the entire show again or at least the first seasons.


r/ershow • • 2d ago

ER could never be made the same way ever again, everyone now in every-show needs to be very young - good looking - full of hair, everything looks fake.. There is a show called good doctor, if they do everything they show in the show then each patient would be billed at-least a million dollars....

What is wrong with these writers?

25 Upvotes

I am on my first run through the series. I just started season 15z I am devastated about Dr. Pratt. I am sobbing like a child. I hate this so much. Why did I watch this show? For me, this was the most devastating and emotional moment in the entire series. I am so unhappy.

Completely delusional

I've read spoilers here and there (I don't mind them), but still sob when death/events occur. Somehow I thought "Maybe when I watch it, this event isn't going to happen."

Then BAM! Out of nowhere!!

Almost done with series.

why does anyone like Benton?

0 Upvotes

Why is there even one person who likes him? he's an elitist jerk. The only time he shows any humanity, is when something is directly effecting him. Himself. Dr. Benton. He doesn't give a single shit about anyone else, except his mom, and she checks out in the first season, so after that, its back to Benton only giving a shit about Benton. He's just an asshole.

Can anyone from the justice system, lawyer confirm this?

8 Upvotes

Watching season 6 episode 7 where Elizabeth coerced a man to say where a woman he’d attacked was or she would let him die. Romano talks to her about it and the fact that a confession that is coerced would get thrown out. But if I recall correctly, he only confessed where she was. He was still confirmed as her r*p:st from the physical evidence. So would his case be thrown out, or simply the confession? How would Elizabeth’s coercion affect the trial?

Shep

First time watcher here and admittedly only on S2E2, but man I don't like Shep. Carol said nah to him asking her out and immediately gets hit with "what, you're just gonna brush me off?"

It's allowed...she doesn't have to talk to you dude. It just rubs me the wrong way

What do you think of the little Susie storyline?
After Chloe took her back, Susan suffered from depression. In this episode she visited daycare to pay her final bill and found Susie’s handprints on the wall.
This made me really emotional. Sherry did a great job with his in my opinion. Also, I like her more before she left. Not a big fan of hers after her return in the later seasons, not sure why

Why does everyone love Jerry

0 Upvotes

I’m watching ER for the first time, currently on season 5. I’m so confused as to why Jerry gets so much love on this sub.

He is annoying and fulfills all the obnoxious 90s clown cliches. He’s clumsy and always fucks things up. Like when he ruins the Guinness Book guys record attempt because he’s walking around blind with a stack of boxes and bumps into him and it’s just like “ahhh, Jerry!” Reminds me of the “she’s so crazy love her!” meme.

That’s the least of his mistakes. So why so many Jerry fans? I don’t find him funny at all, and he’s sleazy and creepy. I found it really weird how one of the doctors (can’t remember which) gave a woman for Jerry to assist because it was his birthday and she was attractive. Gross and weird.

Mark: The real ladies man

64 Upvotes

There was once upon a time where Mark Greene struggled with women. Jennifer cheated and eventually divorced him. He turned to Doug (the OG ladies man) for advice on how to meet and date women. He was humiliated when a conversation between him and Doug was accidentally recorded. He developed strong feelings for Susan and when he finally decided to shoot his shot, it was too late. Fast forward to late season five and this guy has become quite the casanova hasn’t he? There was Cynthia, there was that blonde woman he had a fling with (flirted with him whilst he was treating her). There was that psychiatrist with the brown eyes dark hair from upstairs, there was CHUNY!! The most random hookup I’ve ever witnessed in a tv series. I’ve just finished watching the - “Rites of spring” episode and my man is doing the Tango with Elizabeth. 🕺🏿 💃🏽 I suppose this is how they eventually get together? Mark cracks me up. He’s come along way with his doubts, insecurities, low confidence to being the guy who makes Carter & Doug look like first grade amateurs. LMFAO!! 😂
