County General has its rules. Doug Ross has his. For years, the dedicated pediatrician has pushed the limits. But now he goes too far - and it leads to his resignation in this remarkable 22-episode fifth season of ER.The door swings both ways at the ER - eager med student Lucy Knight arrives. Her mentor for her first rotation is Carter, who knows well the pitfalls of being a student, but perhaps isn't so adept a teacher. Also: Benton has a day-in, day-out patient on his hands when he learns his young son is deaf: Boulet faces a new health crisis; Weaver is passed over for chief; Corday and Greene find unexpected romance; and Ross defies hospital protocols in his treatment of a dying child. The result: Ross goes. Hathaway stays. But will news that she's pregnant with his child change his mind?
"...one of the best prime-time shows on television." Britt Gillette, The DVD Report
"As a television show, ER created a new format for numerous other quality series like The West Wing." Kerry Huang, DVD Fanatic
"...[a] combination of intense medical realism and dishy doctor soap opera..." MaryAnn Johanson, The Flick Filosopher
"...a groundbreaking level of realism. Never had a hospital drama seemed so real..." Stuart Galbraith, IV, DVD Talk
"No hour of TV is more gripping than ER." Time
Editor's Note
George Clooney leads an impressive cast--including Julianna Margulies, Laura Innes, Anthony Edwards, and Eriq La Salle--in this fifth season of drama from the Emergency Room at Chicago's County General Hospital. As the ER workers tend to the needy, their personal lives are in the usual state of turmoil as a young medical student woos Dr. Carter (Noah Wyle), Dr. Ross (Clooney) bids an emotional farewell to the unit, and Dr. Green (Edwards) endures some worrying problems at home. It all makes for some gripping television, and ER continues to garner an impressively large fanbase who will doubtless be delighted with this complete collection of episodes from the fifth season of the show.
