Thanks **Avalonian** but I don’t know which character that is at this point. I will keep an open mind though.

No, that’s exactly what I thought. I’m also having problems working out who Carrie is in ER… same person as Kerry, but minor name change for the purpose of this thread? Different person, but equally a lesbian? Am I just really dense here? 😕

I apologize if I spelled the name wrong. I have never seen the doctor’s name spelled so I just took a stab at how to spell it. She is the doctor that uses the walker type cane in the show. Very powerful doctor. I like her character.

If you’re up to Season 7, you should know who Romano is. Short, bald, and a nasty diposition.

Romano is played by Paul McCrane.

Remember him from Fame (the movie)?

Nope or maybe yep… I thought of _Carrie_ by **Stephen King** … that was more than my mind could deal with…

Remember, she had that relationship with that doctor from the health care managment company a few seasons ago? Or at least before they made her a lesbian.

So who knows?

Pray tell, would that be a comment on the quality of the show under discussion, or the content?

another vote for thinking the OP was about Stephen King’s CARRIE.

Btw. there was a joke about that in the NBC remake when someone remarked about the “heroine’s” (i can’t recall her name- Susan?) helping make over Carrie & “Sue” jokes about how Carrie just satisfies her in a way her boyfriend can’t. If I recall correctly the joke is made in front of Carrie who does get a laugh out of it.

Yeah, I thought it was about Stephen King too 😃 It’s one of a handful of his books I’ve never read, so I really didn’t know if it was a theme or not…

Count me as thinking it was the film “Carrie”.  
I only clicked on this post because I thought that there might have been some scene with Sissy Spacek and some lovely lass that ended up on the cutting room floor.  
Well that’s the way a guy thinks. (This one anyway).

Heck, I was thinking Carrie _Fisher_.
