Nostalgia partly pushed me to rewatch. Never did I imagine a headlong journey to watch the whole thing. It starts strong but as always as characters start dropping away in Season 5 and 6, it's hard to stay focused. Eriq La Salle, Noah Wyle, Alex Kingston, Julianna Margulies and of course old Georgey boy. Geez, what a cast. Maura Tierney really steals the show for me.
Solid acting, fast paced with plenty of soft touches and not enough reality to keep you up at night. You can confidently watch an episode and think...that was terrific. And not think too much about it. But to me - that is excellent TV.
So many well written characters - Abby Lockhart, Carol Hathaway, John Carter, Mark Greene, Luka Kovac, Jing Mei...... It jumps the shark a bit on Season 10 where a truly hilarious fate meets Dr Romano - alas still a great watch.
