I should probably preface this review with my own personal history with ER and note that I was a huge fan of the first few seasons. How huge? Well, when I spent a semester of college in Holland, unwilling to wait until I got home, I had my roommate back in Boston send me tapes every few weeks with ER episodes – and my friends and I would then have to get a professor to let us into the classroom that had the only VCR that could play American VHS tapes, where we'd sit and watch all the episodes on that tape in a row late into the night.
