I wonder if the creators of Emergency Room, or as it is better known ER, ever believed back in 1994 when it first aired that they would still be going strong 14 series and over 300 episodes later. I can still remember how amazed I was when I first watched ER at 9pm every Thursday night, every episode provided this feeling of a movie production and not a TV episode. It was certainly great for 1994, and now 14 years later it still holds it own. I only actually ever watched the first 4 or 5 series and recently thought it would be great to catch up on the series missed. However we decided not just to watch the missed series but actually start from the beginning again and work our way through all 14 series. So far we have managed to watch the ER Series 1 DVD Box Set and enjoyed it just as much as I did in 1994. The bizarre thing is that it could have been made last year, it hasn't dated and the production is just as good if not better than tv shows being produced today. If you are looking for something great to watch, get yourself a copy of the original ER series. Next up for us is series 2 :).

I came across this site a few weeks ago and have now managed to watch the first 22 episodes. The show was developed for web distribution but it also appears that it will be aired on NBC starting in February. Each show runs for an average 9 minutes and follows a group of friends in their 20s and a social networking website. Starring actors from hit shows such as Dawson's Creek and Desperate Housewives and directors like Eric Stoltz it's definitely worth a watch. Check it out at http://quarterlife.com
