Due to its impressive ratings performance against newbies Shark and Six Degrees — falling just shy of the top spot when it doesn’t outright claim it — NBC’s ER won’t be put on midseason hiatus as originally planned. "ER is not going away until the spring," NBC Entertainment prez Kevin Reilly tells the New York Times. So rather that sit the 13-year-old medical drama from January to April, to turn over its time slot to The Black Donnellys, "We are going to keep ER [where it is] for at least 22 episodes," says Reilly. NBC may, in fact, even extend ER’s production schedule to 24 or 25 new outings this season. We are so going to need more suction.
