- ER, a fan favorite and staple of NBC’s must see tv Thursday night line-up looks to be sticking around for one more season. Next season would be its fifteenth. The network had originally planned to end the series this year, but with the writer’s strike coming in and messing up things all the way around, the network didn’t want to cut the series short. ER will get a proper send off. It will return this season for four to six episodes, and there is no word on just how many episodes we will see of ER next year.
  
  The series has been one of NBC’s over the last fourteen seasons, and we’ve seen many faces come and go. ER has been the starting point of break out point for several actors that had made their way to other projects on both the small and big screens. I’ve been a fan of the series myself over the years, but I’ve stopped watching myself the last couple of seasons. I’m not the only one to have stopped watching. While still powerful, the series has been dragged along past its prime. A drop in ratings has been noticeable since season twelve. Perhaps even before that.
  
  As for the fifteenth season, there is word that the series is trying to bring back some of our past favorites to update us on their lives since they left the ER. One they are looking to grab for an episode is George Clooney. He says he hasn’t been asked yet though, and he would more than likely not return if he was asked. Some others I would like to see are Noah Wyle, Sherry Stringfield, and Julianna Margulies. So many have come and gone over the years though. One big episode to send off this series would be nice to see.
  
  There is even word that they want to try to get Anthony Edwards back in some way. His character, Dr. Mark Greene, was a huge focal point of the series until his death of a brain tumor. Yes, the character is dead, but there are ways for him to make an appearance. A ghostly one or even in the form of a never before seen episode from before he passed on. Personally, I want to see Mark’s ghost sit down and talk to Doug Ross. A powerhouse scene with both Clooney and Edwards would be great to see.
