That, as they say, is that.
With nods to both the past and the future, ER completed its 15-year run on Thursday night. It was an evening of something old (the return of numerous show alumni), something new (the introduction of a new generation of docs), something borrowed (a few homages to the very first episode) [...]

Doctors and nurses, we have come to an end of an era. After 331 episodes, and the same number of cast changes, ER comes to an end this evening. Being that we are a nation that now needs to comment on absolutely, totally everything I thought it would be a good idea to open up [...]
