  2. Kept wanting to post about the parallel there but didn’t know when the right time would be since it’s hard to talk about that show without spoiling it a little. Jamie subverted the assumptions we have about children by committing an act that no one thought him capable of, and David subverted the assumption that he had already done something horrible but needed help anyway. Two different stories with the same message - it was cool to kinda get them in tandem

    Back to watching ER and now I am wondering if in the original script when this was supposed to be an ER revival if Dr. Benton was going to die of Covid in flashbacks and it was going to haunt Carter.

    Also seeing some people who are watching ER for the first time after watching The Pitt trying to compare Carter and Robby, and it's like in ER (in the first few seasons as least) Noah Wyle was basically playing that show's version of Whitaker and Javati. Anthony Edwards and George Clooney were the Robby/Abbott of ER.

    I think the lawsuit claimed they started this as an ER revival

    I have to imagine there were some plot elements they must have kept in some fashion. Like the Langdon stuff is such a mirror of what happened with Wyle's Dr. Carter in ER season 6 I am betting that is a story element that was kept and changed a little.
