well they said this season was the last one and clooney didnt return so i think it unlikely he will for this! fingers crossed, it would be nice to give the show a good send off it certainly deserves it. am sad its the last season but then i think we're lucky its got this far since every season we're not sure whether it will get picked up again!

i don't think Clooney will be coming back for any episode, my mum and i happened to be flicking the channels the other day and there was an interview with him for his new movie and they asked if he was going back to ER and he said, no one had approached him, and he says why would anyone want the old doctor back anyway?

Sounds pretty cagey to me. He never comes out and says no like other people do. ANd I am sure there are lots who would LOVE it fi the 'old Dr.' came by for a visit.  |

he'll be back trust me. Let's just think back to 2000 when Julianna was leaving ER and everyone asked him if he'll be coming back and he said the exact same thing, "Know one has asked me" but when he came on in "Such Sweet Sorrow" NBC didn't even know he was coming back so yeah thats what's going to happen

i hope he comes back for at least one more episode. it would be nice to have a blast from the past return. maybe he'll show his face in the very last eppy of the series?
