I'm still here. Sorry for not blogging much lately, nothing really to blog about. But I finally found an excuse. Presenting... Amy's Awards for Seasons 12 of ER. I felt now the season has past, I should recognize some of those memorable and not so memorable moments. Here we are:

Best Episode (apart from 21 Guns): Two Ships

Episode Summary: For Neela, what begins as a routine ride-along with Gates and Zadro turns into a defining day when a commercial jet and a private plane crash over Chicago.

We saw some brilliant acting from Parminder Nagra in this episode, and also some great guest stars. John Stamos (wish it had stayed that way!) and Serena Williams were amazing. And I'm wondering how much this episode cost to produce. $$$

Best Guest Star: Kristen Johnston

Kristen was hilarious as Nurse Manager Eve Peyton. Pity she had to get fired.

Most Annoying Character: Zoe

Get out! How on Earth does this girl think that she and Ray could have a decent relationship when she's underage? Because of her Ray got his face bashed in by her father! Grr...

Best Effects: Two Ships

A picture is worth a thousand words.

Get Together Already! Award: Ray and Neela

Best Singers: Haleh and Morris

They sang "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas", and it was that good, fans wanted a audio recording, but there isn't any...

Most Dramatic Moment: Steve and "Alliance's" ER Shooting Spree

Most Shocking Moment: Abby's Pregnant!

Abby: Okay, I don't know how to say this.
Luka: What?
Abby: These past few weeks have been really great.......I....I couldn't have imagined it to be better.
Luka: For me, too.
Abby: It's just that.....
Luka: What?
Abby: Uhhh...man...
Luka: What?
Abby: I'm pregnant.

Saddest Moment: Gallant Dies

Neela's husband, Gallant died in Iraq, and the soldiers told her in the ER (why?) and it had me reaching for the tissues.

Most Horrifying: Pregnant Abby Collapses

And this was the Season Finale cliffhanger! Luka was tied to a gurney and couldn't do anything, and everyone else was trying to save Jerry.

Most Heroic: Neela in Two Ships

She saved a little boy's life by running into a burning building, and performed some sort of surgical procedure on Gates so he would survive, which he did (unfortunately).

Thank God It's Over! and Worst Episode: Luka and Sam

In Canon City they finally broke up, and about time!

I'm very opinionated. Until next time...
