Amazon.co.uk Review

Set in a Chicago County General Hospital, the multi-Emmy winning ER is very much in the tradition established by the earlier Hill Street Blues. Like that series, ER also features a range of strong characters whose personal lives often reflect the turmoil of their working environment. It also similarly features a deft, fast-moving mix of comedy, intrigue and tragedy. It could also be seen as a precursor to The West Wing, in that we regard with some awe the ability of these characters to keep on top of the mounting chaos in their day-to-day lives and the myriad problems thrown at them. In ER, this chaos may mean crack addicts, violent patients tumbling through plate glass screens, vindictive colleagues or a chief of staff who insists that fellow surgeons operate on his sick dog. --David Stubbs


Synopsis

Features the complete twenty-two episodes from the fourth season of the television drama. While Dr. Mark Green struggles to keep his work and personal lives balanced, a new British surgeon joins the team, specialising in violent trauma.

5.0 out of 5 stars FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH!, 14 Jun 2005
By M. Malyon "Maureen "book worm"" (North Yorkshire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Brilliant season 4! I have been captivated by ER ever since I saw the very first episode in season 1. I was just blown away by the sheer innovativeness of the series. The writing, acting, camera work, story lines, have not diminished since the first opening episodes. The fast action, the clever way the camera work allows you to see the frantic pace when the emergencies arrive in ER and how the various ER staff behave is sheer brillance. I have been known to watch with sub-titles on, much to the amusement of my family, just so that I don't miss any details of the action.

The characters have matured, the story lines are still so good that it's easy to stay involved with everyone of the unfolding lives of the characters. And don't you just ache for things to work out with Doug & Carol! .

Roll-on the sale of series 5!

5.0 out of 5 stars The excellence continues..., 30 May 2005
By Mrs. Sally Watts "sally3142" (Birmingham UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Enter Dr 'Lizzie' Corday, enter 'Rocket' Romano (how we love to hate him), adding pace... Doug Ross and Carol Hathaway get loved up AGAIN, Mark Greene loses it then finds it again, the unstoppable Peter Benton is floored by his new born baby, Jeannie Boulet gets the upper hand on Kerry Weaver... it's wonderful stuff, gripping and gritty. Makes the current Series 10 look like Toytown. Buy and enjoy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good show, disappointing DVD release, 28 Jun 2005
Season four of ER has a feel to it similar to season two - that is, a little more "soap", a little less "medical drama". For the first real time we see the bulk of an episode take place outside of the ER, indeed outside of Chicago, in two very character-based episodes, with one centering around Mark Greene and the other around Doug Ross. While both episodes help us to better understand those two characters, I feel it is a bit of a cop-out. For me, the show sparkles more with creativity and intelligence when the characters are revealed through their work place; otherwise the show becomes just yet another soap.

The editing in this season is also not up to the high standards of the previous seasons, with many of the medical sub-plots often under developed and under explained, usually in order to give more screen time to the above-mentioned "character drama". This leads to some episodes feeling highly fragmented, although this feeling did subside somewhat on a second viewing.

The audio and video transfer are excellent - great depth of sound and colour, I have no complaints in that department. Also good to see is the preservation of the widescreen aspect, although the very first episode is in 4:3 - although I imagine that is because of the conditions under which it was filmed (see below).

Where this DVD falls down considerably is its lack of extras. Each double sided disc contains a collection of additional scenes. There is also an easter egg featuring Dr del Amico trading "Yo mamma" jokes with a patient. And that is the sum total of the extras. Missing from this season are the mini documentaries, the blooper reel, and the audio commentaries that were present in previous seasons. The first episode of this season was filmed and transmitted live in the US, and I was definitely expecting a commentary on that episode - I think it would have been fascinating to hear the cast, director, and crew's behind-the-scenes thoughts on this.

My experience with ER is limited to seeing the very occasional episode on television, and the DVDs. From what I have heard, the show has progressively become more and more soap-like, and unfortunately I think I can see the beginning of the slide. Making matters worse is the lack of extra materials on the DVD release that I have come to expect. Still an excellent show, but I can see standards slipping, both in the DVD presentation, and the show itself.
