We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
My mom was a pediatric nurse when she first got out of nursing school, but her worst shift was when she was called in to help out in the ER the night a couple and their ten kids were in a car crash. The parents both died, as did a few of the children, and the other eight kids were in pretty bad shape. (This was in the late 1960s, so no seat belts or airbags were in the van.) Even worse was the fact that, Joliet being a relatively small town despite its official population, Mom knew the family, as did others on the hospital staff. When she talks about that night, she mostly remembers handling the surviving kids and trying to help them even though the kids just knew that their mom and dad were dead.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
But there was long term consequences to Kellie Martin's character's death -- the whole John Carter becomes a drug addict arc was founded on that incident.
Because Carter was attacked too though.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Quick, I forgot my ex-SiL's 50th birthday was today. She's a good person and I want to send her a greeting. Anyone know of nice free ecard places online?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think you're under-remembering. No, it wasn't realistic, but it also wasn't thrown away. I remember Carter remembering Kellie.
And this season, they didn't throw away the death of his child -- that was palpable for episodes. Sure, some stuff is abbreviated, but they aren't as strictly episodic as a CSI or a WaT or, lord forbid, L&O.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My point was going to be that I don't want reality in my tv watching, but this make me realize why I do like the episodic better -- you can only watch things happen TO the same characters for so long before it gets annoying. I should say that I can only watch that, because obviously ER (and NYPD Blue and I don't know what else) is still on the air.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I have 2 friends who are ER docs, and they are VERY attractive men.
One of them swears he's going to write a book called "Stuff I Pulled Out of People's Asses." I told him I'd edit it.
