ER: Season 9
If You Can't Stand The Heat...
How do you separate your personal life from your professional life? Not easily. And if you're on the emergency-room staff of Chicago's County General Hospital, it may be impossible.
Challenges at work and at home overlap in the series that remains the right prescription for powerful entertainment. Carter's playful office love affair becomes a 24/7 crisis. Kovac's partying affects his performance. And be careful what you wish for, staffers: Weaver is indeed promoted to a position outside the ER... but Romano replaces her. No wonder Kovac and Carter decide it's time for a change. They opt for assignment in Africa. What awaits them makes County General look like a stroll along the lakeshore.

Good show at the beginning but ran it's course... and then kept going... - Sheenie
I liked this show when it first came out. It was different (it had been a while since a prime time hospital show had been on air) and it had George Clooney. This series made him famous but he'd had roles in different series for years (starting with "The Facts of Life") so I had a crush on him long before ER came out, which makes me somehow more entitled to him than other people... Anyway, it started out really good but went downhill. Too many bad twists and turns to keep it going and suddenly someone is gay because that was the trendy thing to do in Hollywood at the time. You might like the series to begin with but expect it to lose steam if you watch to the end.Starts the slide - Spokes
I found after this many season this is where the series started to slide a bit. It as a whole however is always a good watch from start to finish.
If you enjoy watching this series you have to watch it through to the end. IF for no other reason you feel you have missed something if you miss part of the seasons.Keeps getting better - hilkayaker
I enjoyed the plot line in this show. I thought there were happy points to it. Good drama, keeps getting more interesting. Loved the points of them in Africa. And Romano's drama makes you actually feel sorry for him for once. Would have liked to see more of Corday and how she coped with Mark's absense. I loved the med student with Parkinson's it was a very touching part to the series. Can't wait for season 10!!
