The pilot to one of the most succcessful series of the 1990s was written by the perpetually gold-spinning Michael Crichton to depict another event-filled day in the life of a Chicago hospital's emergency room. Holcomb's interweaving of storylines through the day's sometimes hectic actions was a job akin to a maestro conducting a philharmonic. The pilot film was a launching pad for the star career of George Clooney and also featured Anthony Edwards, Noah Wyle, Sherry Stringfield, Julianna Margulies and Vanessa Marquez.
