NBC orders 25th episode of ER… series finale?
So why would NBC order a single additional episode to this season’s order, making this season with a total of 25 episodes? Is the 13th season of the series going to prove to be the unlucky series number, and ER will wrap its 13th season with the series finale as the 25th episode? I don’t even have to mention that 25 episodes in a season is also an unusual number of episodes as well.
Of course, it could be as a result of the fact that ER is unexpectedly doing better this season, and NBC has decided not to pull the show for a 13 week hiatus to allow another show its 13 episode run (unlucky for The Black Donnellys). Instead, ER will air at its 10pm Thursday timeslot right through to May sweeps.
So, what do you think? Is the added 25th episode to make room for a series finale or reunion special show where all the past and present cast gets together? As fans know, there is no longer a regular cast member still on the show from the first season (ah, remember the young George Clooney).
Stay tuned!
