Talk:Samantha Taggart

Is she the Head Nurse?
Haleah seems likely, nut you never know. Therequiembellishere 04:17, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Rape
I can't believe what happened to Sam at the hands of Steve is a matter of dispute. She was raped. A man abuses her, abducts her son and her, kills two people in earshot of her, holds her at gunpoint, removes her clothes without asking, and puts himself inside of her as she lies motionless and petirifed with a semiautomatic pistol to her head. Is that not rape in all 50 states? 12.218.70.92 03:30, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Nurse manager
I'm a little confused over this. Abby was nurse manager from 2002-2003, then Sam came along, but in 2005 Eve appeared as the new nurse manager with no mention of Sam losing the position. Eve then promoted Sam to a management position which I can't recall. What gives? Jerkov 16:01, 15 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Your confusion is due to the horrible writing and story-editing of the show. Not All The Time 11:26, 2 April 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.5.235.198 (talk)

It seems to me that the confusion results from ER's differing and fast-changing staff construction. Sam was a head nurse, which at the absence of nurse managing position, meant nurse manager. However when Eve arrives with her Ph.D. and her very strong and seemingly beneficial plans to re-organize and regroup resources, the head nurse position gets eliminated without mention, or at least that would make most sense. The head nursing was never before an attractive job as it was bounced between Helleh, Abbie, Sam with a raise so insignificant that Dr. Weaver cannot even say it out loud. Such a part, in my opinion, did not further the story very much, as it happens. But the terrible writing I cannot agree with. ER is wonderfully written. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexander V. Henke (talk • contribs) 15:38, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Romano's hand
Dr. Romano's prosthetic hand was forcibly removed from him by Nurse Taggart, but it was temporarily confiscated and hidden by Dr. Lewis, not Taggart. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexander V. Henke (talk • contribs) 15:43, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

"Fan site" [sic] criticism
Balderdash. This article is written in the same style as all the other articles on principal characters from the ER television show. The articles are very thorough and objective, and are very helpful for those acquiring an interest in this show after its demise. The articles, as a class, would benefit from more footnoted refs to specific episodes. Varlaam (talk) 08:02, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Notability
A major character, and a popular one, for 6 seasons on a major TV show. Varlaam (talk) 05:41, 21 September 2010 (UTC)
