Critic Reviews
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
It's like "M*A*S*H" with just the helicopters showing up and no laughs. "E.R." is all trauma; you never get to know enough about the patients or get involved with them. It's just treat, release and move on. [18 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
Tough, gritty, almost exhausting to watch. [16 Sep 1994]

Superb. [17 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
A trauma-rama that opens on an adrenaline rush and pretty much stays there, with timeouts for pathos and sex and dark hilarity, ER launches a surgical strike on the emotions that could make it the medical drama for the '90s. [19 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
Gets off to a spectacular start. [19 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
Gripping ... It sure gets off to a spine-tingling, heart-pounding start. [19 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
Stresses hard-edged realism over contrived climaxes. [19 Sep 1994]

Season 1 Review:
Offer[s] a mixture of timeliness and wit that's still provocative. [18 Sep 1994]

Wonderfully textured... ER has hit potential. [18 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
"ER" achieves speed and grit but at the expense of depth. [22 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
Crichton ... has infused "E.R." with a contemporary, darkly humorous believability. [18 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
May leave you exhausted. [17 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
There are some over-the-top scenes, and no indication yet that these writers know, any better than those on "NYPD Blue," what to do with Sherry Stringfield. [15 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
ER is energetic, combining hints of Rescue 911 with splashes of L.A. Law in an entertaining concoction. [15 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
You've seen everything 'ER' has to offer in other medical shows, but you've never seen so much of it crammed into one episode. [17 Sep 1994]
Jul 10, 2013
Season 1 Review:
It's hospital drama in the "St. Elsewhere" mold - but, so far, with less humor. [18 Sep 1994]

Season 7 Review:
The main reason to tune in to ER this season is to see the full-blooded character Maura Tierney is creating with scant help from the writers, who increasingly think the best way to hook viewers is to either endanger a baby's life or have someone shoot a gun in an operating room.

Season 1 Review:
Exhausting. With documentary precision and harrowing efficiency, E.R. drops you in the emergency room and leaves you there to squirm. [17 Sep 1994]
