ER Complete Season 1

- This item is used Description ER has won numerous Emmy® awards and takes place at Chicago County General Hospital – a series that continues in the same spirit as the former Hill Street Blues. Like Hill Street Blues, ER features a number of strong characters whose chaotic work lives often reflect in their private lives. The series also offers a fast-paced and stylish mix of comedy, intrigue, and tragedy. It can also be seen as a predecessor to The West Wing in the sense that we marvel at how the characters manage to stay afloat in this everyday chaos and handle the many problems they continually face. In the ER, chaos can mean addicts, violent patients crashing through glass doors, vengeful colleagues, or a chief surgeon who insists that his colleagues operate on his sick dog. Season one is best known for introducing George Clooney as the sympathetic, but fairly independent Dr. Ross, and the series has often featured guest stars such as Sally Field and Ewan McGregor. In other seasons we have seen various characters come and go. But if there is one character who embodies the strength of ER, it is Dr. Mark Greene (Anthony Edwards). He is so dedicated to his work that he has refused lucrative and comfortable offers in the private sector, and he is the embodiment of propriety, selflessness, and emotional stability. The episodes dealing with his father’s death were among the series’ most moving and touched on the topic that always lay just beneath the surface in ER – coming to terms with death. This box set contains 8 DVDs with all episodes from ER, season 1, with a total running time of 19 hours.
