Ya know, it's funny, when I first watched ER in the 90's I couldn't stand Benton. I thought he was arrogant and stoic. I watched the series later in life on DVD long after it had been taken off the air and I saw Peter in a different light. He's actually one of the most compassionate doctors on the show. Great relationship between him and Carter too. Excellent character growth.
He's one of my favourite characters but he was indeed a little arrogant. But he was also very serious about his job. That's what i like about him. He wasn't ridiculous like Malucci or insulting like Div
It's a very different experience watching episodes 1 at a time having to wait a week inbetween episodes and being able to binge watch the episodes. You get the full scope of the character being able to binge watch them when you might forget certain details having to wait for each episode.
@@nictrew The show would've been a lot more boring without characters like Kerry, Benton or Romano. You can't root for characters if you have no one to root against.
When I first saw Benton, I couldn't stand him. However, this episode and some others really showed how much he cared. He was tough on Carter but he became a good doc because of him. By the time Benton left, I was a true fan. Loved his return near the end.
@@drmayeda1930 I think the pivot point where Benton started to grow on me was when Benton told Carter to come to his families Thanksgiving dinner after he had been discouraging it for the whole episode, after his mom invited him. It grew even more when we got to hear Benton's evaluation of Carter as a student. His intervention when Carter was back on drugs was another great moment for him.
@@ZeVioloniste A mild drizzle is one thing but down pour where you get drenched instantly is just dumb. That's how you get sick running around like a lunatic.
Depending on level of care that might be a better idea. County ambulances usually have 2 paramedics. If the kid runs into problems they could start treatment right away. Other ambulances might only have emts or lesser training depending on the area and when
In the fittest couple of episodes sorry first Peter was hilarious remember when they picked on JOhn about his coat. I don’t know when he changed but he became better and mean.
@@Elisheval the way Benton talks to the kid oozes of a calm yet determined and caring feeling that I think assured the kid that he'll be alright. It in a way sounded a little blunt but noting the absence of the kid's parents, it really helped to ground the situation even more but not completely overwhelm him.
Benton acts tough, but at the end of the day he has a big heart.
Nah he's just annoyed he didn't get to be part of the surgery to save him
I'm a doc I do know the feeling haha
Doctor Benton gets a gold star for going above and beyond in this episode.
😂 real doctos don't do that

Benton evolved I feel, and became less arrogant with time.

I feel the same about Weaver too. As a kid I hated them both but re watching the series as an adult Benton and Weaved are two of my favorites.

The pivot point for me was earlier in the episode when he's bugging Carter to get the keys to Carter's jeep. Benton didn't have a car.

You missed what was probably the best scene of season 1! Benton goes back and thanks Carter for doing his charts.
Dr.Benton my favorite character
That man is one of the best actors around imo. I wish they would do a reunion show
They sooo wanted to tackle this but they knew how scared the young man was. They did the right thing.
Always bring the pictures with you, one look will tell a competent surgeon all they need to know.
Great scenes, thanks for posting.
...#1 on my ER list is Benton vs. Ross on the roof in the season 1 episdoe 9-1/2 hours. Outstanding stories.
You cut out the best part where Ross jokes good-naturedly about Benton after he leaves
Aww Benton...this almost made me cry 😢😢💚
I know a lot of people like to go jogging for exercise but who goes out for an evening run while it's literally downpouring rain?
Fanatics
@@schweitzer-man6227 It's called a treadmill when it's raining outside.
i actually quite like it, prevents me from overheating while i run. The only thing annoying is the weight of the hair once it gets wet

@@joemckim1183 or get run over
Funny, the ambulance at the end is from one of the EMS providers in LA. You can see the LA County sticker on the window.
Depending on level of care that might be a better idea. County ambulances usually have 2 paramedics. If the kid runs into problems they could start treatment right away. Other ambulances might only have emts or lesser training depending on the area and when
Funny that most of it was shot in LA
1:20 That reaction 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Where were the parents and what happens next?
R. I. P. Malik
So sad....
Malik died??? When?? How???
unfortunately the ambulance got hit by a train.
Really 😢
Love this TV 📺
You end the clip THERE? 😑
Does anyone know did he survive

Benton should have gone with him
Did he survive?
Time sped up it's 2:08
Happy birthday at george clooney from italian boy live in rome
Wonder what episode is this?
dr romano would of did it
Romano has a reputation as a top surgeon. He would be in the same category as Vuslich
@@drmayeda1930 Shame that Romano lost his arm and was never able to do surgery again.
On Crip he would’ve
*Dr. Romano would HAVE DONE it.*
Did the kid survive?
That was the ending scene, we dindnt know more about this kid and his operation at the other hospital.
the ambulance got hit by a train.
Good with kids
Not gonna lie I clicked on this video cause I misread the title thinking it said autism
a: m
I feel like the boy had a crush on Benton for some weird reason.
It wasn't a crush, it was trust. His parents weren't around so Benton was his everything.
