Lubasha Visnjic: Mimi1970 Member (10/6/05 11:26 pm) Oh Luka and Abby are so gonna be together. I like their friendship, Id like to see it develop more before the big deed. Overall I really liked this eppie. I like Eve!! and though Sam and Luka fighting is so played out, I liked that they where actually communicating in the end. I felt bad for Luka, he always blames himself dammit!! ----------------------------------- Iczer eh Administrator (10/7/05 12:32 am) Some of the plotlines were better than the low they'd sunk to recently and the patients seemed to be better than usual as well, more like classic ER. Overall it was more enjoyable than the previous 2. OTOH, that photoshoot storyline was just wrong in so many ways. They're at work. And Abby was getting way too into it. And the lollipops. Just... no. Not even going to talk about Ray's way too loud sex. So TPTB could give us two conversations where Sam and Luka talk civilly, like adults and communicate more in one day than they entire time they were together. Bastards. Don't care how nice and normal and friendlike Abby is behaving now, she'll never make up for the crap she's freely dished out in the past and TPTB need to let go already. Leland Orser was awesome in the trauma scene, the feeling that so much more was going on under the surface to make him lash out like that. I hate it when shows try to set characters up to be hated because they are in essence telling the regulars to stop whining and do their jobs. Makes me like characters like Eve even though I'm not supposed to.

Lubasha Visnjic: Freyalise Member (10/7/05 12:58 am) As far as Abby being friendly goes, I'm still not sure I can swallow her being nice to Dubenko in next week's episode given the way she treated him all last season, but oh well. I've actually enjoyed seeing her being nice to Luka. And whatever gets Leland more screen time, well, I'm game. -------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- lynnskies Member (10/7/05 3:27 am) I thought this was a good episode overall. I am glad to see Sam not being a super B*tch for once. I thought it was cute that Neela was sending Gallant a care package. I can even see her taking some sexy pics, but at work? C'mon- that's just not right. Morris falling off the wheelchair was pretty funny, tho! I thought the abby/Luka friendship was played well, too. Overall- better than last season for sure! (for me anyway!) ---------------------------------------------- lubyfan Member (10/7/05 8:28 am) AFter this episode I am convinced that Luka and Abby will get back together (after what 5 years?) so Im happy and hopeful ----------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- fairydust13 Luka's Kurva Nurse (10/7/05 9:38 am) I really am liking the season so far. My man Luka is the man with no name. It broke my heart when he declared that he wasn't sure anyone would no who he was if something tragic happened to him. Jesus, Luka's hurt was palpable. GV just nails sorrow and conflict. Abby does care, regardless of what the naysayers will inject. She and Luka have a history with both good and bad times. Sometimes I think she is the only one that gets him. What exactly has Sam been pretending for the past year and a half? And can someone fill me in the conversation between he and Sam afterwork. I was dealing with a 5 year old that "wasn't tired." Ray is just gross. I would love to smack that smirk right off of his face. The photoshoot between Abby and Neela was pointless and designed for 14 year old hormonal boys. Why did they go this route. Parminder had to have been skeeved out. Eve was ridiculous. A nurse manger acting like an ER Chief. Someone help me out with this, cuz I'm perplexed.

Lubasha Visnjic: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- YeahSure Member (10/7/05 9:51 am) Yeah, one-night stand my ass. They are getting on the Luby train, at least for some duration. They did a nice job not injecting ANY sexual tension into the end scene with Luka and Abby. It was completely platonic. Looks like they realize that Luka's gotta get over his latest "failure" before he takes on something else. He ain't over it yet, that's for sure. His latest (and I hope final) attempt to talk to Sam was very sad. He just doesn't want to fail again, so this loss is two pronged. It's losing Sam and it's losing his hope for the future with someone. He wants Something, with a capital S. I don't think a fling with Abby is it. He wants to settle down; he wants permenance. And when things start with Abby, I personally think that Luka's going to be thinking long haul. The suspense will be: What does Abby want? Sam was much better tonight. She tried to gently let him down in the drug lock up. She is DONE with him, but seemed to realize finally that Luka's having more trouble. It was actually Luka who was being unprofessional. He realized, thankfully, and apologized, but he put Sam in an awkward position. I cringed when he was getting yelled at from all sides, Kerry included. It was too reminiscentof hellish season 9, complete with drinking too much at the end and being driven home. TPTB will hopefully snap him out of this soon. Eve is definitely loud and large. The character was amusing though. I could enjoy her scenes. It was very unfair of her to take Luka's action out on Sam. Ray: ewwwwwww. Morris makes me giggle whenever he's on screen. I can't help it. Neela and Pratt were both good. My husband was lusting after PN in tonight's episode. Luckily, GV had his hair nicely trimmed so I had someone to lust over too. The breast cancer patient was good. It's the woman who played Ross's ex's lesbian partner on Friends. I thought Abby did a nice job in helping her handle her dilemma. Obvious anvils for Abby too. --------------------------------------- legaleagle1 Member (10/7/05 12:20 pm) I am definitely more positive about this season. That is three episodes in a row now that all had more energy than anything they did last year. Eve may be loud and large, but she brings the energy alright, instead of sucking it out of a scene the way SS did. I am going to enjoy watching what she does, and I am going to enjoy watching her get fired. A six-episode arch is about as far as a character like this can go without the audience souring on them, but I look forward to all of it. As Sam found out, she doesn't rattle before she strikes. Should be a wild six weeks. Sam was less bitchy, for which I am grateful, and she did signal that she would allow Luka to continue being Alex' friend. Those were positive moves, and yet in this episode she hurt Luka worse than she already had by telling him, "we were pretending." He wasn't pretending, and he had not thought she was. And that had to hurt. He was wrong to let it affect his work, but at least he admitted it and apologized. Good acting by LO, by the guests as well. Morris is a tool. PN looked beautiful, and even though the scene was cheesy, I bet Gallant likes those photos. If they can recast Alex, they can certainly recast Olivia. Get someone who at least looks awake. One night stand my ass is right. Luby is coming. I did not get that little bit at the end: did Abby or Luka turn the tv on when they got to his place, still set to the All Eastwood All the Time channel? Or were we supposed to be in Luka's dream, or what?


Lubasha Visnjic: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Observateur Member (10/7/05 2:33 pm) When I started dating SO he had a roomate who would have loud sex with his girlfriend. I'm all for sex, but keep it quiet, damnit. I felt Neela's pain and I hate Ray. I hated the Neela/Abby scene. I don't mind the fact per se, I'm sure there are a lot of guys in Iraq receiving that kind of pictures and if the articles about the daily life over there is any indication, the photos are welcome. However, that was not the place for it, and it made both of them look bad and silly. Morris looked like a horny 14 years old dog, which probably is a true picture of Gemmil. Eve was better than I was expecting, even though I have a hard time buying that a newbie would show her true colors that fast, boss or not. I think KJ was great and Eve was balanced enough to bitch, apologize and talk all in the same episode. But she was unfair changing Sam's shifts, who was not the one having problems there (Luka was) and needed the money. Not cool at all. Six episodes is more than enough for a character like that. Hello, Kerry. I actually liked Pratt, but Olivia is just meh. Loved the scenes with his friends. MP needs to loose some weight, though. Sam was not bitchy this week, and that was a reflief. She made clear again to Luka that she doesn't want to be with him, and the "we were pretending line" was another nail in the coffin. So far she said three time it's over, twice in a very unfriendly way, once in a friendly way. It won't surprise me if next week she says it's over over over to Eve when she questions her about the not working at the same shifts rule. And Luka? Enough with the begging. The woman does not want you. Move. On. LC's hair was actually nice this week, better dye job, and the frizz from hell is gone. I liked Eve's hair, Luka got a much needed haircut, Parminder's was lovely was always, Kerry's hair didn't bother me and though I disliked MT's, it was up. Maybe there's hope for the hair department of this show. I'm on the fence wrt to Luka being part of Alex's life. Obviously the kid needs a male figure in his life and they both could profit from it, but Sam's made clear she wants to move on, and Luka'll eventually do the same. Maybe I'm biased because my personal experience with this kind of situation is that sooner or late the ex will settle into a new life and things change. We'll see. Luka was wrong, and I'm gald he recognized it and apologized. I had the impression the burning man was going to be a bigger part of the show. Nice to know that Susan is going after better things, even if it's off screen. I just hope they mention it again, and in a very positive way. The cancer patient was good and looked really sick. I don't think the writing was over the top. I liked the patient, and I liked that Abby didn't make it about her until she was with Luka. Luka and Abby scene was good, the talk was nice and warm, and a good foreshadowing for both of them as individuals (and if people care to connect the dots, for the rest too). I'm not convinced Luby II will be a long term thing, though. One way or another, Abby still owes Luka's an apology for the way she treated him and if the writers really want to show how much Abby has grown and changed that would speak louder than almost everything else. I doubt, though.

Lubasha Visnjic: ER_Headquarters ---------------------- NeelaFan Oct 6 2005, 10:00 PM I thought this was a very good episode, bar a few things such as how Susan was so easily written off, which I agree was very bad. Was nice to see Kerry back and in action some, it seems she'll be back in the next one from the preview. I liked how Luka and Sam started to act more civil towards each, but Sam is getting the royal screw job by the new Nurse Manager, being forced to chang shifts to stay away from Luka. About the new nurse manager I loved Malik's "If I wasn't a feminist I'd call the new nurse mangager a bitch." I liked to see that the whole staff was remembering Gallant, who I wish I was due to the pics of Neela. I felt bad for Neela when at the end of the show she went home and Ray had a girl over and there proceeded to be quite a racket... kinda made things a bit worse for her. I seriously hope Gallant gets to come back eventually, I really want to see more of him and Neela. We got to see sort of a Luka and Abby moment towards the end, that was nice. Overall a good episode in my mind, hope they continue being good. By the preview for the next one, looks like the goodness will continue. ------------------------------------ riotfish Oct 6 2005, 10:29 PM That bar Abby and Luka were hanging out in looked vaguely familiar... ...isn't that where we witnessed the second Luby kiss? ------------------------ shanesgirl Oct 6 2005, 10:32 PM I love the episode! Nice to see Luby together, mabe there's hope yet!! I think the new nurse was trying to keep Sam and Luka apart, cause she was Jealous. Mabe she's attracted to him!! I hope not! Well she sure followed him around all night. and kept asking Sam about the two of them. And Reela!! I laughed at the end!! I think Neela looked Jealous when Ray said he has a sleep over! Well she could hear what she was missing!!! I so want them together. I'm sorry, I really don't want Neela and Gallant back together. Too boring for me. I loved when Neela and Abby were taking the pictures, and Morris!! When he fell off the chair!!!

Lubasha Visnjic: Calla Queen Oct 6 2005, 11:02 PM Another good epi! But as others have said, and more will no doubt continue to do so----what a poor send off for Susan! "She's interviewing for another postition"?? Leaving, never to be seen again? Just too trite! New characters---- Eve Peyton...I like her & yet find her abrasive...but I think TPTB had that in mind. And for woman to have her PhD in nursing, she obviously has worked hard & is very knowledgable & hard-working. She will make the ER better overall I'm sure, but the heirarchy still caters to the MDs....But as long as Kerry likes her she'll undoubtedly stay. She's Kerry's kind of manager,--tough, by the book, into the literature, & keeping the ball rolling type, ....She's probably right to 'separate' Sam & Luka.....it does make for extra tension & communication problems that don't help the patient or the other staff to do their jobs. I when she chewed up Morris & spit him back out! Maybe someone will finally catch him & demote him before he hurts somebody! Inez--the new RN....good addition to the team. Competant, confident, & empathetic too. I loved that she thought Abby was kidding about who Morris was Reprising Characters- Kerry WEaver---good to have her back, although she is still in rare form, going for the $$$ for the budget & improving the ER. And now she's forced to fill in with Susan gone, I'm sure more zingers will be on the way. I also enjoyed how she silently stared down Morris about the RN meeting. <does a pattern seem to be emerging? someone who doesn't like Morris, the 'mini-chief" ?> Dubenko----well here comes another story arc with an MD with a serious illness, ...and is Abby going to help ease his pain? She has to be careful with an offer of friendship, because it's not certain (or likely) that he's gotten over his infatuation yet...but maybe so. Frank---he's been missing & his attitude is definately a comic relief. Sending porn ot Iraq....good idea! As for the "Regulars" Luka is just hanging on by a thread....how long has it been since Sam moved? The place looks like weeks have gone by,.....but single men trash a domicile pretty quickly (from my experience with a maid service, & my own family of teens & hubby) He did react strongly to Sam's suggestion & wrongly too.....you have to follow up on cases you start & he is an attending, responsible for R4s (Pratt). It is Luka's lisence on the line, not Pratt. I liked the LUBY moments....the friendship, the sharing, the caring,...it's all building nicely, slowly, & fairly realistically. At least Luka learned that 'Bed-hopping" doesn't solve anything.....now if he can just cut back on the beer! Just an note: previous posters from last epi mentioned LUBY wouldn't work because Luka didn't know Abby was an alcoholic.....well he obviously does, but as ABby said, he wouldn't "make a very good sponsor"! She seems to have that issue pretty much under control. But her motherhood/family issue was brought to the surface well by her Ms Lowenstein patient. It put her in a different frame of reference & she was 'reviewing' her life choices & potential pathways to accomplish some of those same goals. HMMMMM.....you think Luka might be a candidate? Neela----good stuff today...glad to see she's not forgetting Gallant, although TPTB are obviously leaving 'hints' for the RayLa combo.....but only time will tell. If the actor who played Gallant has a better offer, we may never see him again anyway! I liked her poses for the poloroids...and again Morris's eagerness to spy on them & his disappointment at the 'gift' shot from Neela. Pratt--looks like TPTB are building another relationship for him....this one looks alot more compatible with this social worker. She stands 'tot-to-toe' with him & calls him on his mistakes. He did a good job today in his traumas, even to admitting he didn't always know everything. I'm sure we'll see more of Charlie Pratt too, despite Greg's response that it was "quick" Overall a really good epi, & I loved the LUBY overtures! And the traumas, and the new characters too, so far! But a SAD Goodbye to Susan! They could have used you so much more!

Lubasha Visnjic: ashmo Oct 6 2005, 11:06 PM I thought this episode was great. I think Season 12 is just kicking Season 11's ass. Luka- I feel so sorry for him it's like he gets one hit after another especially this episode. I think he got too personal in the trauma definitely I also think that it will take him a while to realize that he and Sam are over,but when he does I think he'll be great not depressed. I really liked his scenes with Abby he was on the depressed side but she listened even though he ended up falling asleep. Morris- He seemed a little more serious and then he fell on his ass trying to look at Neela and at that point I thought It's Morris Kerry- finally I can type her name she was great. I haven't really thought about her absence it wasn't till tonight that I realized that she really does bring alot to ER Neela- the pictures weren't as perverted at all as I thought they were going to be. I thought Parminder looked different , she stood out in all her scenes Sam- not at all like last week she seems to want to be Luka's friend but has her mind set on not being with him again. I liked her she did her job and even added a little sarcasm which is always great. Abby- I could tell right off the back that her patient really struck a chord with her. I could see her really reevaluating her future even more. Luka. . . . . I don't know the way she looked at him in the bar and when she left the couch it was just wierd I couldn't read it at all, but I think I'm completely into Luby 2. Abby and Pratt seem like the only two that really push Morris around a little which I find a little funny Pratt- not much of a story tonight, but when Eve came into the trauma room she was kind of insulting him more than Luka and he kind of just took it which is different. I see Olivia is still around and so is Charlie Pratt. Inez- I think that's her name I like her more than Haleh and maybe even Chuny. I loved that lin when she asked about Morris. Eve- that name I think just doesn't fit her. At the begginning I liked her but then she seemed a little nosy about Sam and Luka which I found wierd. She's a little bit of a bitch not in a likeable way at all Debenko- I liked his scene with lLuka in the trauma room and I guess his big "oncology room" storyline will be coming. Overall a great episode. Also thought in Ray and Neela's apartment all the racket was kind of funny. I can't decide if they did that for a comic relief or to start a Ray and Neela thing. ----------------------------- mag1575 Oct 7 2005, 01:04 AM I really enjoyed this episode. I'm in agreement with everyone else who thought that Susan interviewing for a tenure position is a bad to write out a character. I thought that Morris is stil an ass and will probably always be one. I thought Kristen Johnson was amazing and I'm not a really big fan of her. It will be interesting to see how Eve and Sam interact with each other, but switching Sam's shifts so she wouldn't be with Luka seemed a little harsh. I thought the scenes between Abby and Luka at the end were heartwarming, but I think it would be wrong for Abby and Luka to get back together so quickly after Sam and Luka had broken up. So, as always another great episode from a wonderful TV show.

Lubasha Visnjic: guardiantales Oct 7 2005, 02:16 AM I enjoyed this episode more than I have the first two. Man, didn't you just about cry for Luka? Talk about a rough day... That Eve character... I hope the writers don't keep her in 'bitch' mode... she was really quite unpleasant, and seemed to have it in for Luka. I wonder if he reminds her of someone or something? Susan's absence was explained so quickly I missed it! There were some good comedic moments in this episode - I think Morris needed to be knocked off that wheelchair he was standing on, the peeping jerk...and Abby - "You have no genitals." I about choked on my lemonade... hehehe And Neela's head getting bounced as she leaned against the wall Ray was 'banging' on.... LOVED that.. I'm not sympathetic to Sam. Not at all. Probably won't be in the future, either. what was it she said to Luka, when he was trying to suggest they go slower, and start over? "We're both pretending, and I don't want to pretend." Is that what she said? I didn't quite catch it. No wonder he slammed the wall... ------------------- stcommodore Oct 7 2005, 05:56 AM I think overall this was on par with the new school/back to the basics feel we are getting this season. I think Susans write-off or lack there of was realistic. First she doesn't deserve something grand since she had one before and up and left on this one, they are lucky Wells and Co didn't get the chance to stab her with a cake knife or give her cancer. The whole full circle effect of comming back to a staff routed in Residents, Rotating Nurses and Staff with a few Attendings is just like the first season. I feel GV has risen to the occasion and filled the lead spot well to date. I hope we aren't in for another S8 depression from him if anything. Abby has always held her own and can still do so now. We didn't see much of Ray this week but thats not a bad thing. He had yet to stand out. Morris didn't deserve the upgrade and tptb using him to fill a spot for comic releif isn't that exciting. Give it to Dubenko, bring someone new in or leave it empty. They did S1 with 6 and could sure pull it off again. Overall I liked it and while the Neela picture scene was awkward at best this was good ER.

Lubasha Visnjic: the.one.&.only.Luka Oct 7 2005, 10:00 AM This episode was amazing .. I actually felt for Luka, the look he gave the new nurse manager when she told him his assesment was wrong. WOW . if only looks could kill. LUBY - coming back . i honestly think that if TPTB went in that direction it would last this time, seeing as Abby is realizing she wants a husband/family, and Luka has wanted that since their split, more so now than ever. Sam - I honestly,never realized how bad of a match her and Luka were. It just seems as if she's so young, and Kovac has a much more mature attitude about where his life is heading. Im seeing a Luby relationship in the future..lets keep our fingers crossed ------------------------ Dr. Romano Oct 7 2005, 10:01 AM Yeah, yeah. I watched it. Nothing about this show impresses me. It's just...there. Am I the only one who thought Neela's pics were a lot less sexy than they should have been? I mean, come on, show a little more than that. Don't even get me started on Susan leaving. ----------------------- Alibasket Oct 7 2005, 01:31 PM Overall, it was a good episode. I liked Nobody's Baby better, but last night was a good episode. I'm just a little concerned about how Luby 2 is developing. I see it too much like Luby 1. I said it before and I'll say it again. Luka doesn't understand Abby. I said before that he didn't understand her drinking problem, and I was shot down by a few people saying that he never knew that he would have understood... Well, I think last night's "i don't know how you could ever quit" bit was proof enough of my statement. Not to say I told you so, but *cough* I told you so. Don't get me wrong just because I loved Carby, and still am a Carby fan doesn't mean I don't want Luka and Abby to work out. I like them both, and think that both of them need a good relationship right about now. I just don't like how they are beginning. It's deja vu. Luby 1 started off on the wrong foot too. On their first date, Luka lost control and killed the man that was trying to steal Abby's purse. From that point on, Luka just went downhill. Then after that, it was all about Luka's interactions with the bishop and how he had lost his faith. It was always about helping him. He seemed to be the one that carried the problems in the relationship. It was Abby the one who was trying to get him to communicate. And I see Luby 2 headed in the same direction. Abby pulls a drunk Luka out of the bar. He is still obvioulsy not over Sam. His apartment is a mess. He is depressed. I think Abby deserves more. Abby needs someone stable. Someone who is not so obsessed and overcome by his problems. Someone who can dedicate some time to her. In the bar, Abby also wanted to talk about her day. She wanted to talk about that woman she brought to oncology, and how perhaps she was feeling some of the same things her patient was, but Luka quickly diverted the conversation. He can't communicate. He can't listen to her. And if things continue in this direction. Luby 2 is headed in the same direction as Luby 1 was. I hope for the sake of the show, Luby 2 takes a different turn. That it's not all about Abby trying to put Luka back together. That Luka realizes that Abby has problems and needs as well. If he does, then perhaps we have a potentially good relationship ahead of us this season.

Lubasha Visnjic: HoneyFresh Oct 7 2005, 02:30 PM i thought this was a pretty good episode. new nurse manager-ive got mixed feelings about her. at first i didnt mind her but she was a being a bitch to luka & sam. gallent-i liked how they were sending him tht package. neela/abby-tht whole picture scene was so funny susan-i hate how she was wroten out. it suks . i really liked her. kerry-wow we actually got to c her for more than 5 seconds luka/abby-there scene at the end at the bar & at lukas house was cute -------------------------------------- serena Oct 7 2005, 03:58 PM i enjoyed this episode. we finally got to see kerry. i don't care much about luby. its a stupid couple. the new nurse maneger is mean and bitchy but i think that will help the ER. cant wait to see next weeks episode. ------------------------------ Delusions of Adequacy Oct 7 2005, 04:02 PM Eve - wow. Queen Bitch of the Bitch People. I think it's gonna be a good 6 episodes with her. She was wrong to make Sam pay for what was really Lukas problem. If she wanted them apart she should have approached his boss and got his shifts changed. Luka was wrong about the boy but he said so and apologized and thats a rare thing at CCGH. LO nailed it in his scenes. Fantastic. TPPTB - do not kill this guy off. The scene with Luka and Abby was good and GV was perfect in it. He feels like crap because he gets treated like it. But what was really, really good was that this was a scene with Abby that wasnt All About Abby. I like her much better that way.

Lubasha Visnjic: briana Oct 7 2005, 05:35 PM It was awesome. Season 12 really is beating Season 11 by far... Kerry, so glad we got too see her!!! I missed her!! Eve, haha she's cool. I loved what she said to Sam near the end there. She came over and told Sam to walk with her, had a smile on her face, and then told her she was cutting down her shifts so she wouldn't have to work with Luka... wonder how long that's going to last. Abby and Luka... I'm just not sure. I still LOVE Carby. I mean, I liked Luka and Abby together, but Carby had the better chemistry. Hmm... we'll see, but I can see it happening again. Ahh... It was weird how they ended the show with the cigarette burning when it showed at the beginning the cigarette burnt at the beginning. Abby should have put it out though, but I guess she didn't think of it. Haha... it'd be kinda cool if his house or apartment whatever, burnt down, but Abby ran in and carried him outta there. Actually that'd be a little weird because wasn't it Carter that saved Abby or was the Luka? I forget. Doesn't matter. Next week looks good. I can't wait for it!!!!! Neela is getting in her shows. Which reminds me.... It made me laugh when Neela was trying to concentrate and Ray and his girl toy we're soo loud and knocking the stuff right off her walls. All in all... everything was great... except of course Susan's right off. If you weren't paying really close attention you would have missed that!! Ughh... I swear sometimes... it's like the brains are there, and then they aren't... ---------------- erlover1987 So anyway I wasn't fascinated about this episode. Kristen Johnston did a good job. It wasn't as intense as I wanted it to be with Luka blowing up and all.

Lubasha Visnjic: lizabethmouse Oct 7 2005, 09:56 PM Poor Luka...he's such a tragic figure...I wish one of these relationships would really work out for him. I always remember Hathaway telling him that the right person would come along, but every time he ends up foundering. I know some of it is his own doing, but it is just amazing how bad his luck is. It sucks that Susan is just GONE. Morris is a turd, but great comic relief. And, excuse me if I missed something, but was Jake Scanlon supposed to disappear this season, or did that just happen abruptly like Susan's disappearance? I kinda liked Jake and Abby...still, a Luka/Abby reunion wouldn't be bad. Guess we'll have to wait and see. -------------------------- SAMKA4eva Oct 8 2005, 08:12 AM this episode was ok... they could have done better! and that was the worst write-off yet though! and now we know how/why sam is gonna leave... not enough hours and the viewers are gonna really hate her! i liked the eve person till the end when she changed all sam's hours... she should just make samka work it out! and since when does alex like luka again but sam doesnt... well all this season... but does that confuse anyone else how that is going on at least!? ------------------- LoveSeason10 Oct 8 2005, 10:27 AM If the main reason why you watch ER is for a Luka/Abby reunion, then this was a great episode. If the main reason why you watch ER is to see how individual cast members handle ER trauma cases, then this was a lackluster episode filled with soft-porn laced tripe. Yes, Luka and Abby get scenes together. I don't really care if they get back together, so I watched the scenes from an acting and content perspective. I think that those scenes were okay. Not great acting or writing, but I didn't cringe either. Those scenes also made up about 50% of the episode. Another 25% of the episode focused on toilet humor that was funny in High School, but doesn't really seem appropriate in the script of a show that once won Emmys for writing and acting every season. I didn't mind Neela's soft porn pictures, although I agree with Dr. Romano that she came off looking more scared than sexy (but I think that was also the point). But then we have prolonged discussion of Frank's porn video, the bodysuit guy with no genitalia, the whiz kid who needs to 'whiz', and Ray's making out sound effects. I know that the scenes are meant to lighten up the seriousness of the show, but they seemed awkward and the sheer number of them was unnecessary because ER is not a comedy. I thought that the acting kudos of the night went to Kristen Johnston. Yes, Eve is written as the efficient, no nonsense, professional woman that often comes off as a Bi***, however I thought that Johnston softened her edges a bit and made her more likable than most characters who are written that way. In fact, I thought that Johnston did a better job of displaying empathy in her scenes with Luka and Sam (even though her part was not written that way), then Tierney did in her scenes with Luka (even though her part was written that way). But that's my personal opinion. In any case, if you were looking for a quality episode of ER, then I think that you will find "A Man With No Name" to be a mediocre episode. If you're mainly watching ER to see if Luka and Abby get back together, then you will be pleased.

Lubasha Visnjic: 007 01:23 AM I have 2 questions: Have Luka's eyes always been blue? (I don't think so...) Has the actress playing the woman with the BRCA gene been on the show before? (I do think so...) ---------------- GreenJello125 02:21 AM Good God, this show could be considered a softcore porno. ------------- cdessler Yesterday, 03:12 AM OMFG DUBENKO. OH JEEBUS. *wibbles and dies a zillion times over* I totally shrieked in glee when he came into the trauma room because 1. it's him and 2. he still has The Hair. And then he unleased the snark of ages. I was gaping. I mean, he bitched at Luka, he bitched at the nurse (that head roll when he addressed her positively killed me) and he even snarked at the poor patient. I still can't decide whether or not he bitched at Abby, though. He didn't seem as harsh to her, at any rate. And even though I knew it was coming, when Abby started back towards the elevator in oncology my face started to feel weird and tight, and then the sad music started and she saw Dubenko getting prodded on and I actually cried. I want to record it and preserve it forever. (And dude, if he had looked up and seen her through the window...) I have to wonder, though--the doctor looked like he was feeling the glands in Dubenko's neck, which would indicate swollen lymph nodes, right? Is that a feature of prostate cancer? I ask because spoilers had Neela saying she thought he had prostate cancer, but maybe he doesn't. *shrug* Who knows. Poor Morris couldn't catch a break, could he? First he got soundly pwned by Eve, then pwned by the Mighty Morphin kid (I so had to watch that scene from between my fingers, it was so excruciating--but damn that pratfall off the wheelchair looked like it hurt like a mofo), and then pwned by Neela (the look on his face when he saw the photo was priceless). He's so stupid, I think I love him. Scott Grimes somehow manages to make his idiocy endearing. Still, I hope they might make him less of a caricature and more of a character. Shaking wall in Neela's room = so seventh grade. I giggled like hell when Pratt and his brother-type person said "cheddar" instead of "cheese" Is it just me, or am I the only person who thought the freaky burn guy would get more screen time? I mean, the episode was titled for him, right? Abby and Luka were kinda cute. And I like that Luka and Sam were honestly trying to work together and not let their breakup get in the way too much.

Lubasha Visnjic: AzizalSaqr 03:43 AM I loved this episode...ok, I'm biased but this was Goran's episode and he handled it beautifully. Luka...I think the difference we are seeing with how Luka is handling, or not handling the break-up with Sam and how he has handled relationships in the past says much about how he feels about her. I really do think that Luka thought he might finally have found someone who could help him reclaim what he had with Danijela and the reality of losing that is tearing him apart. I was glad to see him trying to explain things to Sam and felt for him when Sam blew off those same attempts. It's obvious that the two are on totally different pages with where they are and where they want to be and it'll be interesting to see if they can find a common ground or if they will agree their isn't one. If the second case proves to be the one settled on I think they will agree to remain friends if only for Alex's sake as it's apparent that Sam realizes that Luka is a positive figure in his life. Funny to see that Luka is now smoking, I imagine Goran is glad he can now indulge his habit even though he continues to try and shake it. Final thought, I love slightly drunk Luka, it allows him to admit things he might not otherwise, plus he is just downright cute when he is. 007, Goran's eyes are green with golden highlights, I think they just tend to look blue when he wears the color though. I like that Abby is there for Luka, I've always enjoyed their friendship and think that the fact that she can be there for him shows how much she has grown as a person. Great comment to Luka too about him not being a great AA sponser candidate. I think that was also reflected in her counselling of her BRCA patient and as she spoke about changes she could easily have been speaking about her own life. Sam...I have mixed feelings about Sam right now but agree that she needs to discover just what it is she wants in a relationship. I think she and Luka are at that awkward stage in knowing how to interact but have the feeling they'll come to terms with things if only for Alex. I think Eve's handling of her shifts was out of line and it'll be interesting to watch the progression of things between them. Neela and Gallant..it was nice to hear Neela admit that she and Gallant have moved to the boyfriend/girlfriend stage in their relationship, I think they are good for each other. It was funny to watch Neela struggle with what to send but I have to admit the photo session was in poor taste even if it was well intentioned. In many ways Neela comes across as very inexperienced and I get the feeling that she might never have had a serious relationship before. It was nice to see Sharif in the "Previously on ER" clips...I miss Michael and hope we see his return before the season ends. Pratt...I continue to like Greg this season, he's really coming of his own as a doctor and as he continues to lose the arrogance that surrounded him in the early seasons. I thought his idea of sending pizza to Gallant was cute, too bad they wouldn't be able to get an exact location to follow through on the overnighting of it. Eve...the character irritated me to no end as she seemed to want to one up everyone, but she redeemed herself when she went to Luka and admitted she was out of line in calling him on his actions during a trauma. She definitely reminds me alot of Kerry in many respects and I'm not sure that's a good thing. Morris...still can't stand him, and can see him as a stalker type personality. Ray...tacky, tacky with Neela right in the next room...sheesh, have a little common courtesy to your roommate's feelings. Dubenko...man, he was on a roll, I had a Romano flashback for a minute...maybe he's channeling. It was sad to think that he's going through what he is and seems not to have anyone to share things with. Weaver...she was back to being her old self and the idea of her playing attending again does not bode well in my opinion. I'm sure I'll think of more things later but these were my initial impressions...I look forward to hearing what others thought. For me though, this season just keeps getting better and better...

Lubasha Visnjic: Lparr00 Yesterday, 12:02 PM First off....just SHOOT ME NOW by falling asleep during the last half-hour but hey, caught the good stuff...that one comment the nurse made about Morris being 'Chief' just killed me....'....no seriously...???' Dubenko was ROMANO peeps, was he not??? This is really the only time I can enjoy such a character just because I caught myself saying 'Damn, wheres Corday or Benton when you need them??' -------------------------- ladylightning20 Yesterday, 12:41 PM OK, I'm obviously biased here, but Dubenko...WOW! That was snark to end all snark! I mean, that was positively House-ian. I taped the episode and rewatched that scene three times...God, he's turning into Romano so fast, it's making my head spin. (Leland's better looking, though, IMHO) Some other comments: -I think the titular character (the burn victim) really felt like more of an afterthought -I love how Dubenko referred to Inez as "new nurse" - that cracked me up -Mmmmm...the hair (no "dead animal surgical cap hair of death") - enjoy it while you can people, he's probably going to lose it soon... -At the end, just the look on Dubenko's face as he was getting prodded by that other doc...it made me want to give him a hug. That scene almost made me cry... -I think we've got a good storyline here. If last night's performance was any indication...(I've said it before and I'll say it again, Leland Orser is an insanely talented actor...) -I know it's only episode three, but enough with the freaking eigth grade crude sexual humour! (Yes, I know, it won't change) -Wait, haven't we seen depressed, dysfunctional Luka before??? -The new nurse manager is freaky...seriously. It's nice that she's uber-competent, though. (It's like Romano...he was kind of an arse, but we all tolerated it because he was such a good surgeon. Dubenko too.) -Gallant's care package - ugh. Don't get me started. I think this got more attention than the actual patients did. -While we're on the topic, all this foreshadowing...you just know Gallant's gonna die. -It's nice to see Pratt having something of a functional personal life. Maybe the new lady surgeon could perform the same function for Dubenko. She's more likely to be his emotional and intellectual equal ('cause science geeks need some lovin' too...) -Morris...What. The. Heck? Seriously, SG is a fine actor and Morris seems to be becoming even more the uber-buffoon. However, I did enjoy the part where Eve summarily dressed him down in front of the entire nursing staff... -Ray and his girlfriend: I know that that part was most likely foreshadowing (although I wouldn't usually expect anything half as sophisticated from the likes of Zabel) and done for comical effect (hopefully)(or to illustrate the enduring agony of Neela's separation from Gallant) but...all I can say is hackneyed (at best) -Dang. I want to see Dubenko in something other than surgical scrubs this season (*thinks back wistfully to "Twas the Night"*) -Was it just me, or was the foreshadowing on Luby Part Deux just a bit too strong? Overall, I liked this episode for the most part. I'm really looking forward to next week's episode. Hopefully we'll get a bit of Dubenko backstory.

Lubasha Visnjic: KzamInUSA 01:22 PM However, if you could get past the beginning scenes with the Body Amazing Guy and the 'whiz' kid - scenes that apparently were written by the creators of "Spring Break: The Real Cancun" and "Jackass the Movie" - then you saw some good scenes with Kristen Johnston, Goran, and Linda. Dubenko was also good, and I agree he was a bit on the Romano side with his criticism of Luka, but I can understand given his current health. Anyway, this episode was basically 30 minutes of Abby 'Lisa Miller' Lockhart doing her thing. :shrug: Whatever... Thankfully, this time the producers were intelligent enough to break her scences up so that her appearances were almost evenly spaced throughout the show. However, in order to get 30 minutes for Abby, that means that some actors either must get very small parts or they get 0 screen time. So no Danny Glover this week. And it looked like there would not be any scenes with Ray, but he got about 30 seconds of screen time towards the end of the episode, with about 10 seconds of sound effects time brought to us once again by the folks from "The Real Cancun". Luckily, Eve (Kristen Johnston), made out a little bit better than last week's guest star; she got about 10 minutes of screen time. After reading the spoilers, I thought that she was going to be a real Bi*** and kind of cold-hearted, however I thought that Kristen turned the character into someone who is efficient, knowledgeable, and caring. I liked the fact that she took the time to talk to Luka about any issues he may have with some of the nurses, and that she seemed to listen to what he had to say. I also liked the fact that she was willing to let Sam stay in the ER, and that she didn't give her some holier-than-thou speech about not mixing work with personal relationships. In short, I thought that her 10 minute scenes with Luka and Sam were the highlight of the episode, followed by Dubenko's brief rant in the ER. We saw Frank for the first time this Season. Unfortunately, his patently acerbic remarks were limited to the importance of porn to soldiers fighting wars. We have more flirting between Abby and Luka to help increase the expectation of a Luby 2. Overall, I found the most of the writing to be a bit bland and lacking in imagination so as a substitute for those things we got an episode that where 1/4 of the plot focused on preadolescent sexual hi-jinks. Maybe ER is trying to get a new demographic interested in the show??? Oh well, at least Johnston did a great job and I can see why she is a 2-time Emmy winner.

Lubasha Visnjic: Yesterday, 04:20 AM anonymous1 Addicted Fan Highlights: - Everyone working together against Eve. Nice to see friendship and little fighting. - Weaver. I'll admit it, I missed her. - Luka and Abby's "conversation" at the end. - Neela's box to Gallant. The whole thing, from the pictures to the pizza to Frank's porn tape. - Morris's antics on the wheelchair trying to see Neela's pictures. Lowlights: - As much as I liked the storyline with the rollerblader girl, I guess I just wasn't drawn into the story as much as I was expecting to. ----------------- Yesterday, 11:22 AM lostqueen I really liked this episode, but I don't like Eve at all! She's even meaner than Weaver can be. Should be interesting to see how she continues to shake things up? Am I the only one that thinks ER is trying to work Abby and Luka back together? Full recap and review on my review site if anyone's interested! ------------------ Yesterday, 02:54 PM JohnAndKem4Ever I think that it was an okay episode. Yes, it tried to be funny, but I couldn't help feeling like it was a bit like bathroom humor from the 9th grade. There were like 2 jokes about genitalia, 1 joke about soft porn, 1 scene with porn noises, and discussion about porn videos. One of these things would have been funny, but all of them in the same episode just made it seem like one or more of the writers need to get laid before they start thinking about future ER episodes. I have always been mixed about Kristen Johnston's appeal and acting ability, but last night I thought that she was terrific. Yes, Abby and Luka part 2 seems to be on the horizon. Will it be a different result? That's the only thing that we haven't had any hints about so far? Overall, I was happy that I taped this episode so that I didn't have to blow off The Day After Tomorrow and The Edge in order to see it. Not completely awful...but not that great. One last thing: Sherry got a partial exit line yesterday. If you keep up with the spoilers, then you know that Susan had appeared in the original script for last night's episode. It was supposed to have been Susan who was walking with the grant officers. Those scenes were altered so that Weaver played the part. During that altered scene, someone (I think either Abby or Morris) asks Weaver, if it's true that Susan got a "tenured position at another hospital"? Weaver responds that Susan is just "interviewing", so nothing is definite. It's nice to see them mention Susan's name, but unless they plan on stating that Susan actually got the position in a latter episode, it's a bit confusing because it sounds like Sherry Stringfield isn't planning on coming back so why not say that she 'got' the position.

Lubasha Visnjic: Today, 01:33 PM SpySyd Okay ep but not amazing.... Good Stuff -Houston,we've got a problem.Loved that line from Morris. -Neela/Ray,Neela&Abby -Luka&Abby Bad Stuff -The new nurse -Sam (Luka's the one with the communication problem?Right) -Not enough Ray/Neela ----------------------- Today, 02:21 PM newoldfan Loyal Fan Am I the only one who liked Eve? I thought she brought some life to the show. I mean I loved the Luby stuff but everything else was snoozy to me. I didn't hate Sam this ep - first time in a long time. She was strong to tell Luka that they need to stop pretending. ------------------ dreamy Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:01 PM I’m not loving the new Nurse Manager at all. They never needed one before, so it’s pretty contrived to me, especially since she seems to now be the nasty female in the ER. (Nice to see the original, Laura Innes, for a split second). Having said that, it was an ok show. Surprisingly. Don’t shoot me, guys, but I enjoyed Luka and Abby together. Yes. I, too thought that Neela was pretty flippin' hot. (And so is Clint, I might add.)

Lubasha Visnjic: gaPeach Fanatic Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:07 PM Are they going to put Abby and Luka together again? I don't think I could get pass the "you aren't that pretty" comment he made when they broke up. Morris actually made me laugh a couple of times. I use to really hate him. Now he doesn't bug so much. Good episode. ---------------- lisl Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:07 PM The Abby-Neela scene played better than the spoilers. But then, I'm one of the few who finds Morris entertaining, LOL. I don't see the point of Eve and I don't like Kristen Johnson at all. I'm not sure how Luka screwed up with Sam, given that she appears to want nothing to do with him - I think he's been dumped beyond a doubt and can stop trying to talk to Sam. I liked the Luby scenes, too. ---------------- msadventuregirl Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:13 PM I really liked the episode! Like, for the first time in several seasons, I didn't get up during the commercials because I wanted to be sure that I didn't miss a moment. This is two in a row that I was hooked on...am I drinking the Kool-Aid, or do things seem better? Was Carter was the Jonah (or the Stephanie)? And I loved the Luka/Abby. I loved them the first time, I really am liking it again now. Though...did anyone else think that the cigarette would set the house in fire and Luka would get burned, too, bringing the anvil, I mean metaphor, full circle? It may be better, but it is STILL ER...

Lubasha Visnjic: Cypher21 Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:14 PM I've been w/this show since season 1 and I thought Sally Solomon might save this season for me, but I think i'm through w/it. I should have jumped ship awhile ago but I stuck it out. I hate that NBC keeps hyping this season so much when it's not as great as they think it is and they know it. ----------------- MantaRay Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:16 PM I LOVED Kristen Johnson. It's about time someone smacked some sense into those people. And if she's going to spend her time beating down Morris and Luka for their inappropriate behavior, than I'm all for it. She may be contrived, but at least she's interesting. Although, if they wanted to have a bitchy supervisor, I don't know why we couldn't just get more Kerry. Old School Kerry totally would've said something to Morris. Wow. I love The Abby and Neela Show. That scene alternated between being sweet, and funny, and incredibly sexy. Lucky Gallant. ---------------------- Lara_2113 Oct 6, 2005 @ 10:22 PM Good: Kerry! Bad: Susaaan! Good: Dubenko! Bad: ...is dying. Good: Morris was injured! Bad: Not fatally. Good: Less Sam! Bad: More new nurse manager. Undiluted good: They saw fit to acknowledge Gallant's existence. So either he's coming back (!), or they have the guts to mention him anyway. When Abby peered through that oncology window, she did not, as I feared, see Maggie. I think we can all give thanks for having been spared that particular anvil. Luka and Abby. Wow, so much for 'holding on grimly even though the show will never, ever go there again'. Wow.
