I used to be a huge ER fan. Looking back through our episode guide for the show, I can confirm I watched it religiously for over 10 years, right up until the period Dr. Carter (Noah Wyle) kept leaving (as did his girlfriend played by Thandie Newton).

Right now on Fancast we have the last 10 episodes of the series which just aired its final show April 2nd. For old fans like myself who may have stopped watching, this last arc of the show is great as it brings back many of the old players. Try the appropriately titled “Old Times” episode to catch up with Dr Carter, Nurse Hathaway (Julianna Margulies), Dr. Benton (Eric La Salle) and of course George Clooney’s Dr. Ross.

Today’s News
We are proud to announce that along with these 10 great ER episodes, we now have over one year of video on our site. That is to say, if you sat down and started watching every video we have available today, you would not finish until April 16. For ER those 10 episodes total up to about 7 hours of video. For the rest of Fancast that’s 8,760 hours of non stop video action fun.

I am not sure the best way to try and watch a year of video. It probably would take some planning and organization. You might want to do it alphabetically. Maybe watch one genre at a time. Or maybe take it on by going through the networks…start with ABC and finish up with the WWE. You’re going to have to prepare a great deal of popcorn and it probably wouldn’t hurt to grab a couple of cases of Redbull before you get started.

More Video To Come
With our great content partners, we are working on getting much more content on the site, including a lot of great shows never seen before on the web. So by the time you have watched everything available on Fancast today, we may have added another year worth of video programming for you to watch.
