Interview with ER Creator’s wife Sherri Crichton from 2024 regarding The Pitt ongoing lawsuit
After seeing Noah’s comments lately and as an ER fan, I’ve felt very disconcerted with the fact that he’s taken so much ownership over the entire concept and uses features of the medical setting to justify his own problematic behavior, casting decisions, and prejudices. When it comes to ER, he has been able to do some serious revisionist history about his role on that show. Yes he was in the main cast but he is and was always touting himself above the rest of the cast and it’s clear a lot of storylines were included to placate him. Long story short I decided to do some digging on this lawsuit and as I expected there’s a little more to it than the main sub wants you to think. Since creator Michael Crichton’s death, several reboots of projects using his IP have been able to go uncredited. His ER contract was one of the only contracts that was supposed to protect him in the event of his death, departure, or if there were going to be any projects spawned from ER. His estate spent over two years negotiating with WB, John Wells, and Noah Wyle with the exact same concept of the pitt just with the actual John Carter. It was WB, John, and Noah who decided to pull out likely because they didn’t want to have to pay or credit the original writers, producers, etc. 72 hours later, the pitched the concept for the pitt and everything was the same except for the location and the fact that robby is jewish. I was wondering why we hadn’t seen more ER cast members appear on the show and i think this is it.
