undefined

Product Description ------------------- ER: The Complete Twelfth Season (DVD) Combining the extraordinary talents of multiple award-winning producer John Wells, best-selling author Michael Crichton and Steven Spielberg's Amblin Television, "ER" explores the inner workings of an urban teaching hospital and the critical issues faced by the dedicated physicians and staff of its overburdened emergency room. These medical professionals remain determined to save lives in a place where nothing is taken for granted, and nothing is certain . . . nothing except that another desperate person will be rushed through the emergency room doors in the next moment, in need of their help. ]]> .com ---- As one well-loved character left, new ones arrived, and few more annoying than nurse manager Eve Payton (Kristen Johnson) and attending physician Victor Clemente (John Leguizamo). Eve promotes Sam (Linda Cardellini) and tries to get her to do her dirty work, while Clemente gets on everyone's nerves with his new procedures. Sam breaks up with Luka (Goran Visnjic), who starts to show an interest in Abby (Maura Tierney), while Neela (Parminder Nagra) carries a torch for Gallant (Sharif Atkins), off serving in the Iraq war. Yet she also feels herself getting closer to Ray (Shane West). Clemente is revealed to have some skeletons in his closet, particularly in a woman named Jodie (Callie Thorne) and her violent husband (Shea Whigham). The "ER in Africa" series continues, with Carter (Noah Wyle) serving in Darfur, and joined by Pratt (Mekhi Phifer) after the latter makes a critical judgment error in the ER. Archie (Scott Grimes) weighs a new job offer, and Weaver (Laura Innes) decides she needs to make some changes. Sam continues to have troubles with her son (Dominic Janes) and his her (Garret Dillahunt), leading to an explosive cliffhanger in the season finale. Other roles include Danny Glover as Pratt's her, Stana Katic as a rape victim, James Woods in an Emmy-bait role as Abby's former mentor stricken by ALS, Armand Assante as a wealthy man with a tempting offer for Sam, John Stamos as paramedic Tony Gates, Iranian star Shohreh Aghdashloo as a Turkish mother of a wounded child, and Mary McCormack and Eamonn Walker as medical staff in Darfur. --David Horiuchi
