Thanks for the caps Amy!

It was beyond amazing and better then I thought it could be. Everything was so touching. I love how Ray was more mature, I love how they talked about what happened with his accident and how they felt afterwords....I love how you could tell they both were proud of one another. I love how Neela was finally stepping up and saying things. You know like "let me go tell Simon to piss off" Not at all like "What's that Hope? Ok, let me go talk to Abby when me and Ray are talking...bye!"

*Sigh* You could see them falling in love all over again. I haven't cried that hard in...well ever I think. I'm stoic, I internalize everything and I was balling.

Bravo to Shane and Parminder! And thank you ER, for finally starting to "get it."

All roomies need to go over to tv guide right now and show your love and support to our roomies. Each of us need to comment on how exceptional last night's episode was. I already gave my 2 cents over there. ER Episode Recap: "Haunted" - TV Show Recaps | TVGuide.com

Yeah I was pretty surprised to see a recap like that. When I read it this morning I was just wondering where it all came from. I was under the impression that most media people loved the roomies; I've only ever read good things about them. A lot of major points in the episode were ignored in the recap that's for sure.

Any icons around? I would love to check some out! I have to support our roomies.

I forget the "SEE YOU SOON" part. I was so focused on the kiss I missed that. lol.

manu_r/hr · 10-31-2008, 10:02 AM

Thanks so much for the caps and the vid edit with the Roomies moments.

Im so happy now, it was such an amazing episode!!

Im not gonna repost my crazy review of Save Reela, Im just gonna try to make more sense now:

Words cant express how much I love Mindi and Shane, their chemistry was amazing!
Neelas face seeing it was Ray, it was amazing, and the whole ER shipping them... oh I loved it!

Then I love to know that Rays been working, and hes good now, and boy, I hate Brenner.

I love the looks Ray was giving him all the time, and how he went all Graduation Day and introduce himself!

Neela was annoyed at Brenners presence, and loved how she said that she didnt want to go! Thats my girl!

Then seeing Ray with that cute and tender look watching Neela all pro working, it was amazing!

The running scene... I loved that Neela wasnt awkward because of Rays prosthetics, it was great to see her acting like nothings changed. Cause it really hasnt!

And the apartment... the first thing is to point out how Neela wanted him to stay, and at her way, she let him know that.
And he didnt want to be tempted...

then how they miss each other, how theyd felt alone. Ray trying to kill himself... I assume it was before Neela went to the hospital to see him, maybe thats why Katie was so furious.

The whole not talking for some time... someone said, and I agree, that I think maybe it was Gregs death what made them talk again, which if so, would be amazing, considering what a Reela shipper he was.

The dancing.... they are the sweetest thing ever!

The little kiss..

And the being interrumpted!
And "I Dont" was here, except this time Neela kicked him out and told him how things were and how were going to be!

I loved Ray waving at Brenner ROTFL!

And then, Strange Bedfellows was here, except Ray was carrying the bag this time, and they did kiss!

And I melted!!!! Finally, a kiss!
a proper one, cause the little kiss before Brenner interrupted wasnt proper proper.

So cute!!!

I was really really anxious, I needed to see another Roomie scene, that couldnt be it!

And it wasnt! She was looking throught the window, he waved, and she cried, and I cried and it ended.

And now I dont know how Im gonna do till he gets back.

What I also love about it, is that Neela and Ray cleared the air as well as Neela being clear with her feelings for Ray to him, with her wanting him to stay an all.

angelfirestar* · 10-31-2008, 11:18 AM

oh my god

just seen the episode.....and i'm not embarassed to say a couple of tears were shed!
i LOVED it! literally can't express how good it was to see shane and mindi together on our screens again after so very long!!

and jesus, either ray must have the willpower of an ox not to have stayed at neela's (i was urging him to go back upstairs when neela was looknig at him though the window and he was looking up at her from the car) or like others have said, yes it was a very mature decision.
what i loved was ray's obvious strength and renewed confidence, and neela's focus on him where no distractions could get in her way (completely diff from the fiasco of a triangle including gates) And let's not forget ALL THE LOOKS they gave each other - some funny (brenner awkward introduction), some absolutely breathtakingly sweet (the looks when they were sitting on the sofa from ray - shane is so good at that, def has the ability to make girls melt!) and the looks between them whilst sharing their feelings whilst dancing (or swaying from side to side? hehe) - so lovely they included this, never in my wildest dreams at the end of S13 think i would get to see our roomies dancing!

it was bittersweet, as i suspected it would be to see so much adorable roomie goodness and then to see ray leave (even tho we knew he would) but you can tell she utterly knows what she wants now - when she said "or you could just stay here forever and never leave" you could tell she meant it (and her look of despair and sadness at the end of the episode portrayed that), and that is a stark difference from the neela of S13/14 who was a mess and was confused by her feelings and guilt was all-consuming - i liked that ray went far in dispelling those guilty emotions
there's a lot more i want to say but for now, forget about the stupid critic, (but do make your voice heard) all that matters is the fans loved it and from i can tell, we did

aaah bliss

Missed the ep last night on account of a Halloween party, but I saw the clips on tube of you last night when I got home. OMFG.

Seriously, they were fabulous. Neela is finally starting to be proactive. She told Brenner AGAIN that there is nothing between them. I would have preferred if she'd left the door open and told him that in front of Ray, but I guess they have to drag out the return appearance for Shane's second episode somehow. Ray is being more proactive too. He actually said what he thought of Brenner right then and there, when unlike in Graduation Day, he kept quiet about what he really thought of Gates.

I also liked the bookends to earlier episodes where this time things were done differently, like Manu mentioned. First, "I Don't", with them being interrupted and Neela telling the person to go away. Then "Strange Bedfellows", with him carrying the bag and her asking him to stay, and this time, there was a kiss. Also, he looked at her as he was getting into the car, unlike in "Strange Bedfellows" where Neela couldn't look at him as she got in the cab.

The only thing I hated was that they took Neela's "You owe me 80 bucks" line to Ray from "Middleman", varied it by one word and gave it to Brenner to say to Neela. "You owe me 80 dollars." Wasn't happy with that. And show your support at TV Guide, but don't put too much stock in what she says. She wanted a Dubenko/Neela 'ship after Shane left. And she's only one person. There are more people out there who want Roomies than there are who don't. And if TPTB didn't know that and plan to use it, they would've killed Ray off at the end of S13.

What are SP tags?

I don't really have anything to add that hasn't already been said. It was great to see the Roomies together again. Loved how the whole ER was psyched for the reunion...

Calgaryfan2006 · 10-31-2008, 01:47 PM

Hey Roomies, Wow thanks for posting those caps. Just seeing them reminds of how good the ep was last night

nzhome · 10-31-2008, 02:15 PM

Said it all on the episode thread, but the bit that really got me blubbing just that little bit more was as she pressed her palm to the window. It's a really poignant gesture. If I hadn't been to choked up to speak I would have been yelling at Ray to stay.

CJG18 · 10-31-2008, 03:27 PM

*dies after seeing the caps*

Thanks so much!

Spoiler Tags. Like if you have something to say that could be considered spoiler-ish, then you can put it in SP gags so that only people who want to read it can highlight and read it.

Example:

With *'s

[*SP]La la la[/SP*]

And without *'s

Spoiler:

La la la

Spoilers still aren't allowed on the board even in those. Spoilers still go to the thread at the Spoiler board. The SP tags are for the more gray areas. We try to use them sparingly.

I rewatched the Ray&Neela scenes again
