Morris in ER last night

I thought Morris was brill in last nights episode, when he stood up and said what he thought of the new surgeon to his face. The best thing Morris had done.

Go on Morris, give him what for.

I think it was the first time I liked Morris.
He could be the new Mark Green

DrMarthaMcMoo · 09/03/2007 10:27

He's a good actor. He was great in Band of Brothers.

It's so unsual for him to do that, as he usually tries to avoid things

Go Morris .
Agree, this was the first time I liked him.

Crocky · 09/03/2007 10:31

Not sure about the new Mark Green though, he was cute. Morris is not attractive in any way.

I love the fact he has those kids from his sperm donation, that was a funny story line

kimi · 09/03/2007 11:06

Also i don't like the way Abbey abd Luca are going

Whendoobygotstuckupthechimney · 09/03/2007 11:08

OOH kIMI i HAVE NOT WATCHED er FOR A FEW EPISODES WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH aBBY AND lUKA

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:10

Moo, I thought I was the only person ever who thinks Scott Grimes has a certain bizarro cuteness about him. And agree he was superb in Band of Brothers.
Anyone else thinking that twinkly but somehow odd asthmatic geezer is the real threat to Abby and Luka's safety and happiness? That Forest Whitaker is a red herring?

DrMarthaMcMoo · 09/03/2007 11:12

Definitely Marina - I said exactly that to dh last night (I don't think he was interested, he only half watches but I try out my theories on him anyway). Could he be Abby's Dad? Did Mad Sally ever mention a father - I got the impression she was a single parent?

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:14

Of course! Her dad! So Abby is the old pal he is checking up on in County...
I have not watched ER from the very beg. so am not fully up on Abby's family history, but hasn't she been told her dad is dead? I mean, would you believe Sally Field ?

DrMarthaMcMoo · 09/03/2007 11:15

My two theories:

  1. Twinkly asthma guy is in league with Forrest Whittaker. He's a Private Eye who has a sideline in contract killing. Too twinkly for that, maybe. FW knew about Luka's family in Croatia so had been doing some digging - or someone else had.
  1. He's Abby's Dad and wants back in her life.
expatinscotland · 09/03/2007 11:15

Let's hope he wastes Abby.

She's a moany cow.

SaintGeorge · 09/03/2007 11:15

Has to be her dad. IIRC the storyline was that he walked out when she was really young, hence her having to deal with her mum's bipolar disorder.

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:16

Dh adopts a similar viewing tactic with ER btw - lights on but nobody home, so to speak. Last night he even read me out a piece from an angling mag ffs, while Weaver was snogging her new gf

I've seen all of them but I can't remember hearing that he was dead (that doesn't mean it hasn't been said though - I have a brain like a sieve). Sally's so flakey though that she could have lied - I think I recall tales of a nomadic kind of childhood with her dragging Abby and her brother off somewhere else whenever the mood took her.

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:17

Expat, I hate to say this to one of our cuddliest members, but it is Goran Visnjic who is bowing out this series, not poor old Maura Tierney. So I think if there is wasting, it's going to be precious Croatian blood spilled...

DrMarthaMcMoo · 09/03/2007 11:17

FW is Curtis Ames, yes.

expatinscotland · 09/03/2007 11:17

They need some more lighting in ER, definitely, the sets are SO dark!

And so unbelievable between Neela and Grimes. Yeah, like she'd so go this flat when she knows he's got a girlfriend!

Duh!

Like Ray would care if she brought some bloke home to bone.

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:18

Forest Whitaker is the actor playing Curtis Ames. I reckon he will be offed too, giving his life in protecting Abby and baby Joe, but failing to save Luka

expatinscotland · 09/03/2007 11:19

Dammit!

I'm not watching anymore w/no Luka.

But see, he's bowing out of the show so he can move to Scotland to live with me and I can have his babies, so I won't need to just watch him on ER .

elliott · 09/03/2007 11:21

Ooh, yes, her dad - I am sooo dense when it comes to spotting story lines.
But I'm dismayed if luca's going - I just want him and Abby to be happy ever after...
Don't you think ER has become somewhat sloppy though - I mean, they no longer bother with dialogue, just cut to some musical interlude with meaningful glances...

Marina · 09/03/2007 11:22

Last night was extra soppy because of Laura Innes (Weaver) directing. She always goes for a smoochfest, with plenty of lip action for...Weaver

kimi · 09/03/2007 11:22

Abbey and Luca are getting very snappy with each other, i also think the guy from, the bar is trouble.
