DanaK October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 Quote 10/06/2021 (08:00PM - 09:00PM) (Wednesday) : Dylan and Will deal with a dishonest patient whose lupus is in remission. A wealthy donor makes inappropriate advances toward Stevie. Vanessa, Crockett and Charles try to convince a young woman to have life-saving surgery. I enjoyed the stories this episode. I had a feeling the donor guy had some medical issue, as his responses seemed off, like he wasn’t aware how he was coming across or couldn’t express himself properly. I feel sorry for the lady with lupus 7 Link to comment
Broderbits October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 I enjoyed the episode too; the show has gotten much better without April and Natalie. Now if they could just get rid of Halstead! 7 Link to comment

mommalib October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 I like Dr. Scott he's cool, level headed and kind. And he speaks his mind, I like that shot he threw at Halstead about playing cop. 7 Link to comment

Now if they could just get rid of Halstead! Oh, yes, indeed! I like Drs. Scott and Hammer. I also like that Dr. Charles has gotten more air time this season. Who is the actress playing Stevie’s mother? She looks familiar. 4 Link to comment
mrsbagnet October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 It feels like they got new writers for the show. They haven't been throwing around the typical bingo card terms (pneumothorax, hemothorax, intubate, "push 2 of epi" (or sux or whatever drug)) as much this season. The storylines seem more thoughtful and complex. Also, no budding romances so far -- the preview for next week notwithstanding. 6 Link to comment
SunnyBeBe October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 So, next Dr. Charles will be prohibited from working in the ER. Please. How will that save them money? 4 Link to comment
spunky October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 Dr's. Scott and Hammer are great additions. I'm liking the Dr. Scott/Atwater friendship. Finally someone called Will out on the fact that he loves to play detective. I thought the donor had a form of dementia based on his affect and lack of self awareness. I'm glad they gave him an actual medical condition instead of making him an entitled, rich ,old man. 5 Link to comment
SunnyBeBe October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 It’s improved fir sure. I did think the pairing of Crockett with Maggies’s daughter looked unusual. Does she have a crush? 1 Link to comment
Mrs Shibbles October 7, 2021 Share October 7, 2021 (edited) Pinch me! I actually enjoyed the last two episodes. I used to hate watch this show. I don't miss April or Natalie one bit. I am really liking Dr. Scott! Halstead's clunky plotline can stay far back in the background, in my opinion. 2 hours ago, spunky said: Dr's. Scott and Hammer are great additions.

Quark October 10, 2021 Share October 10, 2021 Good episode. Now that April and Natalie are gone, I realise how judgemental Halstead is. Goodness me! Link to comment

I think the actor was working on another project while they were filming these episodes, but he'll be back. It's kind of jarring that most of the original ED docs are gone. Can't say that I miss them though. 2 2 Link to comment

Can't say that I miss them though. No wonder the show was so refreshing. I'd forgotten about him completely. Natalie bugged the hell out of me too, but Choi was the one I honestly couldn't stand. He doesn't have (or at least he doesn't show) the necessary depth of human compassion for the front lines of an inner-city ER. Let's put it this way, if I ever end up in the ER with a less-than-life-or-death injury, I sure as hell wouldn't want someone like Choi treating me. Operating? Maybe, but not as initial point of contact. 2 Link to comment
preeya October 14, 2021 Share October 14, 2021 (edited) Such a big improvement in this show since the "culprits: April, Manning, & Choi" are gone. I hope Halstead's undercover work doesn't drag on too long. Edited October 14, 2021 by preeya 2 Link to comment
SnarkySheep October 20, 2021 Share October 20, 2021 As a person who's been living with lupus for the last 15 years, I was really disappointed with this storyline. You rarely hear about lupus on TV, then when you finally do, it's a character who's been lying about her symptoms. Add this to House's tagline about how "it's never lupus", and it's no wonder society doesn't take this disease as seriously as they should. Link to comment
