Ugh, Romano's death was so mean-spirited! I didn't even like him, but the way his death was portrayed as wacky and ironic really put me off the show for good. Knowing the actor felt hurt by how his character was killed off made it even worse.

I was a huge fan of ER, but those last few seasons were just... well, let's say Romano's death fit right in with the rest of it.

[killnotic]

That's disappointing. ER was top tier, must-see television for a long time. Damn shame.

I mean, the show ran for 15 years or something crazy like that. I'd say they got a solid 10 years before things started to go off the rails.

[killnotic]

Yeah. Agreed. It was excellent-to-good for close to a decade.

Even though I dipped during the latter years, I still came back to watch the series finale, and I'm pretty sure I cried.

I think I stopped watching regularly right after the helicopter came back for the rest of Romano, but I also watched the finale with a tear in my eye. But I remember things being not great for a couple of seasons before I stopped watching. I never thought Mark and Elizabeth were that good as a couple, and the writers were starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel with things like Breakfast Club episodes. When the TWOP recaps started being more entertaining than the actual show, it was kind of the beginning of the end.

Television Without Pity.

Y'all tryin' to make me feel extra old right now! 😌

The actor didn't like how he was killed off? I didn't know that fact all this time.

[killnotic]

The actor was in a retrospective I watched on Youtube, so I don't know the exact name of it, but Paul McCrane who played Romano looked and sounded really upset talking about the scene. I think I remember him saying he begged the showrunners to write Romano off some other way but they went with the wacky helicopter death anyway.

[(Anonymous)]

Wonder why the helicopter death irked him so much.

[killnotic]

I'm not sure, but from what I understood, McCrane thought Romano got a lot of positive character development after losing his arm, and that Romano deserved something better than a: 'Fell down an elevator shaft' ending.
