The end of an era...

Thursday night I watched the season finale of er. I thought that I would be more upset then I was. I cried when previous cast members left, but not this time. Maybe it was because I knew that he would be back from time to time, but what I think is more likely the case, I just don't care as much as I use to. I use to look forward to Thursday nights. "Must See TV." My TV would never leave NCB and that colorful little peacock. I find myself now while still watching TV on Thursday nights (is there anything else to do?) but spending most of the night on CBS. No I don't watch Survivor, but I do enjoy CSI and Without a Trace. I even find myself while watching my beloved er secretly wishing that I was watching Without a Trace instead. (Wow I need TiVo for my 3 1/2 channels) So it is with sorrow that I say good-bye to a long time friend Dr. Carter, but maybe not with the same sorrow that I would have felt in previous years.
