I know!  Crazy, right?  I found out about this other E/R TV show during the trivia game at one of the 80s themed book clubs I went to.  80s E/R was a sitcom, but like the later ER, it was also based in Chicago.


Quote:
"Stay back of the white line!"



Trivia:
A regular cast member of the later ER was also a regular on all 22 episodes of this E/R.  Do you know who?

Once again, never watched ER although I knew it was a craze. I didn't get into TV I guess until late in the 90's or 2000's. I know have had to purchase the DVS sets of series like Frasier, Boston Legal, CSI-Vegas, Burn Notice. Our TVpretty much sets on the Discover channel.

I didn't watch either ER much. Just couldn't get into it. Don't know why.

How fun! I never watched either show, but I do like Grey's Anatomy. Does that count? :)

Nice! I didn't watch the 80's version and the 90's version kind of bored me. Good luck finding 80's shows for all the letters of the alphabet - I'm excited to see X!

I used to watch the 90's ER for homework tv when I was in nursing school. Never heard of this one, though.

And I'm pretty sure George Clooney was in this one too.

It was unbelievably difficult for me to settle on just one place. I decided to make it somewhere I'd never been before...and then I decided to stop over thinking and just pick a place already...and I landed at Piazza San Marco in Venezia, or as we call it for some reason, Venice. (Does anyone know why we don't all call it Venezia?) I would stroll the square, sidestepping pigeons and saying buongiorno to people whose eyes met mine, not worrying about my sorry accent. I would have tickets for that evening's opera in my pocket and a caffe-flavored gelato in my hand. I'd be wearing a darling scarf I'd just purchased, arr

thirtysomething 1987 - 1991 Click image to watch thirtysomething opening theme If it was "A" day, I guess I'd call this one Angsty Adults. As barely twentysomething during the tenure of this late 80s TV show, I didn't really get what they were all whining about.  Now that I'm a fortysomething...please God, let me be past all that. Quote: "I mean, Michael's cute and all, but how much fun can it be sitting at home watching him sulk night after night?" Trivia: This series was influenced by a 1983 movie that also featured an ensemble cast of baby boomer yuppies.  What move was it?  More info on thirtysomething and other 80s TV Shows
