Watching ER

I found this interview at youtube of Linda and Scott talking about ER. Linda touches on what is in store for her (again The Powers That Be are listening to me!)

While some of this is based on Episode 7, there is some upcoming news that you won’t want to miss!

I really like how Sam is going to be getting some kind of a life. Hopefully it won’t be destructive… but I am a little disappointed that they aren’t taking more of a focus on her reconnecting with her son. In fact it almost sounds like the opposite of listening to me but it does sound like Sam will have a chance to live the part of her life that she had missed as a young mom. It’s still better than no storyline for her at all… what do you think? Could this be a good storyline for her?

And… I am curious to see if they give her a “hook up” with anyone in the ER. There was the cop, then the energy expert that was in “Blackout”… so who is next?

Also be sure to pay attention to Scott give out some information on his latest movie! All in all, things look strong over at ER despite the writer’s strike, but have no fear, I have information and a bit of a scoop if not more of a conflict of information which I will post for you tomorrow and I will let you decide what to think.

Otherwise, be sure to watch the video and leave some comments about what you think over Sam’s new storyline.

Sam, Morris, Linda Cardellini, Scott Grimes, news, writer’s strike

I remember watching Scott Grimes in various bad 80’s television and even some even worse horror movies. So let me tell begin by saying that I was very skeptical when he came on as an ER regular. I didn’t think his character Dr. Morris would make it. I really mean that. I didn’t like the storylines they gave him… I didn’t like… well, (sorry Scott Grimes fans..) HIM.

But for once TPTB showed me up and now Morris has grown on me… by the way, does anyone find it odd that he is a red head and they named his character Morris… like the cat in the Meow Mix commercials? No? Ok it’s just me then.

Anyway, what I was trying to say is that somewhere Morris got… CHARACTER. I am not sure how they did it or why but it seemed like one day Morris was different. Maybe it was the change of finding out how many sperm doner children he had… I don’t know but there is a different side of Morris that we see now and I like it.

In fact, I don’t know if anyone else has noticed but it seems that his part on the show has gotten bigger too. Could that be because Luka is leaving, and Ray is gone(?) too? I wonder about that. Especially this week’s show. We see Morris getting rid of the boogeyman with “medicine”, primping for a date with Hope by getting a makeover and some apparent much needed exfoliating. It’s a whole new side to Grime’s character that I think they began to play with last season and are just beginning to develop now.

Can I say it’s about time that they begin exploring some of the more interesting characters on the show?
