ER Episode: What’s Up with Sam!?
I will admit it.. I watch ER. And only because it’s a tradition since the day I met my beautiful wife. She’s a nurse and of course it’s been her favorite show for years. It’s an hour every week we sit down together on the couch and spend us time.
But I will also admit, I love the show. I haven’t missed an episode in many years.. and I’ve grown to love the characters.
To the point of this post…
I couldn’t believe it when Sam dumped Tony at the end of this last episode (”The High Holiday”). I understand she is pissed at him for giving in to the children and it leading to her son’s accident.. and she’s gone into protective mode with her child.
But come on! Poor Tony.. having him walk off at the end with the dog. I was sad!
He didn’t mean for what happened to happen.. he made a mistake. He didn’t cause the accident. If someone makes a mistake and it indirectly causes an accident.. well, that’s just something that can’t be blamed. (unless of course, it’s a regular occurrence and you fear for the safety of the child.. buy once?)
She seemed so matter of fact about it.. so I don’t have high hopes they’ll get back together.
And I know it’s just fiction and all.. 
…but maybe it was something that needed to happen to reveal the true nature of their love and to reveal it wasn’t meant to be.
Anyway! I feel strange as a guy talking about ER.. but, I’m man enough to do it! 
And this is a relationship blog right?
What do you think if you saw the show? Was it justified?
