Forgive and Forget (#10.16)

[ComedyFan2010 · 8/10 · 17 April 2015]

An exciting episode. Mainly because of the crazy guy who stole a tank to come back and kill Morris as he promised. It was pretty fun, mainly because of Morris's reactions. When he told others what the guy said before he left the hospital. Believing Abby saying that there will be a helicopter with a big magnet and them all observing it. Then it also got exciting as the guy was shot and brought in where Morris as well had to work on saving his life.

Frank's story was also great. I wonder if they did it because the viewers started to dislike Frank. He kept on making some pretty bigoted comments and unlike Romano who was also a bigot wasn't as funny. But this story with his heart attack gave him lots of humanity. When we see the kid he adopted we see him as a man with a heart. And it was also sweet to hear how he always has stories about his work and thought highly of Neela. Frank is now a better man in my eyes and in many viewer's I am sure.

Well, I have an issue when people say they want casual relationship and then get mad if the person who they told it to follows it. So I see no reason for Sam to be mad at Luka. I didn't like Gillian, but in this story she is the only one I felt bad for. At least Sam didn't keep on being nasty to Luka about it.

Sam gets on my last nerve!

How in everything good and holy in this world is Sam gonna demand that she and Luka be casual but then the next day or a few days later have a problem with it when he respects her wishes?! While I have a feeling she only said it because her son found out about them before she wanted to tell him herself, it doesn't matter why she said it. It's the fact that SHE STILL SAID IT that's the problem! She can't have it both ways. Either she wants casual or she doesn't. And she definitely can't get mad when the person she said it to respects her for the choice SHE made!

Sam...

Sam is easily the least likable character in ERs history, her constant waffling about literally everything is soul crushing. It's a pity the show is subjecting Kavoc to her insanity.

Where the heck is Randi!?

[wlandezw · 1/10 · 27 March 2022]

They really took us out of the interesting character that was Randi to leave us to the idiot and intolerable Frank.

Why is he on screen? WHY?

Randi has so much deep and swag.

Despite the Pandemonium...

....I am getting so irritated with 'Sam' and her kid, and her wavering over a relationship with Luka, the whole episode was just too much. I really dislike Sam's storyline, she is hogging too much airtime with her endless dysfunction and her irritating kid. Oh, she gave birth at 16! Oh, she moves around all the time! Oh, she's had endless nursing jobs she left! Oh, she's insecure! ... She's not fit to be in a relationship with anyone on this show. I understand Luka's need for a family and security, but he and Sam aren't a good match.

This one is where ER jumped the shark for me

The tank stealing ruined the show for me. I don't think I watched it consistently again until NBC began promoting the final episodes. I'm sure there are plenty of unstable people who may try to steal a tank, but they wouldn't succeed before meeting the business end of a military rifle. The whole premise was absurd.

Over bigotry and relationships

[llewellynf1974 · 3/10 · 2 October 2020]

When this show first started, it's focus's was purely on the patients, their ailments and the doctors who help them. The last few seasons have now focussed 50% on personal relationships, who is sleeping whom etc. It makes me (and other viewers) start losing interest in the show.

Secondly, the level of bigotry & vile comments shown by Frank the receptionist would not be tolerated in any working environment - least of all a hospital. America is so anal about inappropriate behaviour that it's surprising has not been fired by the hospital or had his teeth knocked out by someone!
