=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0This episode past reminded me of a steak I once got. =A0
In hindsight, I should have only eaten every odd bite. =A0 Lately we've
been getting great episodes, then poor ones. =A0 C'mon folks! It's
almost over! Bring your A-game every week.
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0Once again, why is Neela leaving
now? Why not wait until the final episode? Don't get me started about
those awful cameos. At least someone could have actually visited
County.
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0Abby and Neela were close. But the phone
call bit's been done before. =A0 Think Betty Ford on The Mary Tyler
Moore Show. Don't forget Suzanne Somers' last days on Three's Company.
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0Is Abby just working part-time? =A0 We got
a harried mom with other folks' kids. =A0 I wanted Luka there. Let him
say something! =A0 Too bad no one mentioned him to Ross. We might have
gotten a growl.
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0The captions were a little slow. =A0 Did
Neela go to Baton Rouge? I'm guessing that everything was shot in
Hollywood. =A0 It looked like she could be near LSU. But things were
rather generic. A more accurate picture of the area would have
involved traffic jams. Don't forget the orange cones and construction
signs.
We got a radio report about animal testing. I thought that it
might be about cockfighting. =A0 That got banned months ago. =A0 Ray
looked good. =A0 Has that friendship finally blossomed into romance?=A0
I hope Dubenko's right. =A0 Go back now!
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0She and Brennan parted on good terms. This
part took too long. I'd rather seen her spend more time elsewhere. The
DVD should allow us to piece things in chronological order. Do you
really have to buy a ticket to get in the lounge? Remember Uncle
Jesse's brief job with an oldies band.
The flashbacks were actually nice. Frank's heart was in the
right place. His head caused the problems. Kudos on the orange cake!
That's my favorite color. Ditto for Frank Sinatra and Rachael Ray.
What kind was it?
Too bad Frank didn't use those years to learn about Neela's
culture. Remember Hill Street Blues? The Hispanic officer got an
award. They served Mexican food, and called him a Puerto Rican. He
was Colombian!
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0 We had the nice moment when Haleh took Neela to the
wall. It must be kept behind a steel door. No one's gotten lost and
seen it. When did this tradition start? What if Neela'd seen
Hathaway's name and mentioned meeting her? But only Ross spoke of
working there.
Morris and Claudia are a fiesty couple. I've actually been
rooting for them. Perhaps the last episode will have their wedding.
No job is completely safe.
Maybe the doctors need those vests too.
At least Neela was usual on her last day. There was the sad
case of Mr. Walters. The truth about his son's death opened a big
floodgate. Hopefully it will turn out alright. Ditto for the
motorcycle victim. Didn't the medical stuff used to take precedence? =

=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0Once again AB was in the credits. But she didn't
show. It must be in her contract. =A0 I'd like that deal. =A0 Still,
most of us would go on and show up for work.
My personal preference was still to see her leave. The last
episodes could concentrate on the group we've grown to love. OK, some
folks we just tolerate. Families have both kinds.
=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0=A0Who's left? =A0Will two timers Susan and chen
return? Weaver's flashback doesn't count. We'll excuse the deceased
Greene and Romano. I seriously doubt a Lucy Knight sighting.
Malucci and Doyle were on the wall. We heard about Cleo. Abby Keaton
doesn't seem likely. A spooky one would be Amanda Lee.
Suppose you rated the worst TV doctors. Which ER characters
would you choose? How about other shows? I nominate Pulaski from
Season 2 of TNG. Sadly, all doctors at County will soon be only
memories. I'm still up for a spinoff or occasional movies. Just get
good scripts, directors, and lots of these folks.

Sincerely,
Darren Thornton

As a matter of fact you do. At our local airport the lounge is after
you pass through security, so only ticketed passanger can proceed.

Worst hands down would Lucy Knight.

I just got in tonight from a trip out west. Our airport now has a lounge in
the arrivals waiting area with large windows people can see through as
passengers are coming through to baggage claim. And at the Phoenix airport,
the biggest and best restaurants and lounges are all outside of security and
only a few piddly eateries by the gates.... much to my hungry dismay.
