Fans are celebrating the arrival of the classic medical drama ER on Netflix. All 15 seasons – a total of 331 episodes – are now available to stream in the UK, and many are calling it the best show of its kind ever made.
The TV show ER is set in a busy Chicago hospital, County General, and focuses on the challenging work and personal relationships of the doctors and nurses who work there. It’s known for its dramatic and often life-or-death situations.
The show helped launch the careers of many popular actors and actresses, notably George Clooney, who starred as Dr. Doug Ross during the first five seasons.

It’s been a bit sad seeing some familiar faces leave the show, like Julianna Margulies from The Good Wife, Alex Kingston who I loved in Doctor Who, and Maura Tierney, who was great in The Affair. They were all awesome additions, and I’ll miss them!
Noah Wyle, known for his role as Dr. John Carter on ER, later became a producer and star on the acclaimed HBO medical drama The Pitt.
For a long time, the show held the record as the longest-running primetime medical drama on American television. However, Grey’s Anatomy—now with over 450 episodes—has since taken that title.
Throughout its run, ER received critical acclaim and earned an impressive number of awards. It was nominated for 124 Primetime Emmy Awards, winning 23, and received 25 Golden Globe nominations, with Anthony Edwards winning a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Series in 1998.
The show proved very popular with audiences, and one IMDb user even called it “the best medical drama of all time.”
One viewer called it the greatest medical drama of all time, praising its quick pace, emotional depth, and thrilling suspense. They also highlighted the incredible cast.
One viewer recently revisited the show ER after 30 years and was impressed by how well it holds up. They noted that the storytelling and characters are still compelling, making it a highly recommended watch for both medical drama fans and anyone who appreciates well-made television.
ER is available to stream now on Netflix.
