E/R(1984)

E/R is an American sitcom that aired in 1984 and 1985, adapted from a stage play created by the Organic Theater Company. Produced by Norman Lear and Embassy Television, the series ran for a single season and starred Shuko Akune and Bruce A. Young, who reprised their original stage roles. Set in an emergency room, the show's premise would later influence Steven Spielberg and Michael Crichton's creation of the acclaimed NBC drama ER. George Clooney, who appeared regularly on E/R, would go on to become a star of that subsequent series, which became a cultural phenomenon throughout the 1990s and 2000s.
